Nominator(s): Erick (talk) 01:27, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list based on the successful nomination of the Latin Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Another Believer, who has worked on many Grammy-related lists, provided a quick review and gave me the encouragement to nominate this list. The first nomination failed to due to a lack of activity.

Comments
  • " They are selected from all major categories of Latin music...." who, the pieces or the judges?
  • " inductions were first presented" sounds odd to me, "the first inductions were made ..."
  • Table needs row and col scopes.
  • "Among those include" either replace "include" with "were" or replace with "These included..."
  • You could expand more on the inductions, i.e. that they have only occurred three times, each times six years apart.
  • Check ref titles for WP:DASH violations, e.g. ref 6.

@The Rambling Man: Hey TRM! Thanks for the review. I've fixed points #2, #4, and added the suggested "six years apart" occurrence for point #5. I need clarifications on what you're asking regarding point #1. I will have the table and reference next. Erick (talk) 16:00, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding my first comment, we've lost track of who "they" are, the preceding sentence talks about judges, the one before that talks about the individual pieces of music. Which one of these are "selected from all major categories of Latin music"? The Rambling Man (talk) 11:43, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, so I've merged the sentence with the preceding sentence to clarify. It now reads: "The recordings are picked by a panel of recording-arts professionals such as musicologists and historians and selected from all major categories of Latin music." Does that work? Erick (talk) 14:46, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've corrected the dashes re: the 6th bullet point. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:01, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid I don't really know how to help re: the 3rd bullet point ("Table needs row and col scopes"). I usually just copy the table formatting from one list to another, but I see that this table is a bit different than the other Grammy lists. @The Rambling Man: I realize it's not your job to address concerns, but might you be able to provide a link to a page describing what needs to be done, or an example of a similar list to mirror? ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:04, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Another Believer: Thank you AB! I really appreciate your help! Erick (talk) 20:05, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sure thing. Sorry for my delayed response, and I wish I knew how to help with the other concern, too... I'd like to see this list promoted, but I'm afraid table formatting is not my area of expertise. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:07, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've added the col scopes and given an example of where to place and how to format the row scopes. Shouldn't take too long to fix it up. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:56, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much, TRM. I'll let Erick take a stab at finishing. Much appreciated. ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:38, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@The Rambling Man:, I think I got it. Please have a look and let me know if there's anything I overlooked. Thanks! Erick (talk) 14:12, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
All good, thanks! The Rambling Man (talk) 22:16, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I'd like just to note that User:AJona1992 supported this list's promotion in the first FLC round. Thanks. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:10, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I, too, support this list's promotion assuming concerns by all other editors are resolved. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:36, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Another Believer! Erick (talk) 20:49, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
And I still do support this nomination, I see no issues for its second run here at FLC. – jona ✉ 02:30, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • You use the word "recording" several times in the lead, and I would recommend changing one or two of these instances for the sack of variety.
Two of the instances are for the proper noun "The Latin Recording Academy" and a quote ("early recordings of lasting"). For the third instance, I couldn't think of another word for "recording" so I used "albums and singles". I hope that's alright with you.
No worries, I completely understand. Thank you for the comment. Aoba47 (talk) 17:46, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am not a fan of the way that the Latin Grammy Awards information is phrased in the first sentence. It cuts off the sentence and separates the Latin Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences from the quote describing what it does in terms of the Latin Grammy Hall of Fame. The information about the Academy being behind the Latin Grammy Awards should be kept, but it may be better to revise it as the second sentence of the lead instead.
I moved the mentioned of them also being responsible for the Latin Grammy Awards to a separate sentence.
  • Would you need commas around the phrase "such as musicologists and historians"?
Added commas.
  • I am not sure what you mean by "selected from all major categories of Latin music". I am primarily confused by this because I am not sure if this part is connection to your reference to the Latin Grammy Awards, in that the songs are selected from the major award categories, or if you are reference selected from different genres/types of music overall? I would recommend making this a little more clear by saying "award categories" or a similar variation if you are referring to the Grammys here.
Well this one is tricky because the source doesn't really specify. All it says is "Selections are drawn from all major categories of Latin music, acknowledging the diversity of musical expression for which the Latin Recording Academy has become renowned." My guess is that they mean all genres within the Latin music universe.
Makes sense, thank you for the clarification! Aoba47 (talk) 17:47, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would rephrase "The inductions have only occurred six years apart." to "The inductions have each occurred six years apart from one another." or some similar variation as the "only occurred" does not make sense in this context.
Done!
  • Why is the information on the sales/commercial performances of Siembra, Eres Tu, and Amor Eterno necessary for this page? This list is about those inducted into the Latin Grammy Hall of Fame, and the information on the commercial performance seems more appropriate for the page on the artist and their work instead of here.
I have removed all mentions of commercial performances of recordings.
  • While I will not require it for a support vote, I would highly encourage you to archive your references so you do not lose your hard work in the future.
I have checked and ensured that the WayBack Machine has copies for the online sources (physical media like Billboard can be accessed offline as well thankfully).
  • Just as a clarification question, you do have a lot of red links on this page. That is not a bad thing, but red links should only be used when you feel that the topic is notable enough to have its own article. If you believe that all of the red links have potential, that is fine (I do find red links to be helpful for encouraging users to create new pages), but again I just want to draw your attention to this.
From my point of view, if the recordings are deemed to be very important by music historians and musicologists, then they are probably notable enough to have an article about them. They all likely made an impact in the Latin music universe in some capacity.

@Magiciandude: This was a very interesting read! Once my comments are addressed, I will support this. If you have any questions about my review, please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it if you could do a review for my current FLC for the list Alyssa Milano discography, but I understand that it is a busy time of the year, and you have not have the time or interest in doing so. Good luck with this nomination! Aoba47 (talk) 17:05, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Aoba47: Hey Aoba47, thanks for the review! I've replied to each of your comments above. Erick (talk) 17:41, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support this nomination. Wonderful job with this, and good luck with getting it promoted in the future. Aoba47 (talk) 17:49, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I echo the previous reviewers, nice job Magiciandude. My review found the following: (1) Earwig shows copyvio unlikely, (2) W3C finds no dead links, (3) the lede is concise, relevant, and compliant with WP:LEDE, (4) I did not locate any (uncorrected) spelling or grammar issues), (5) content that is uncited in infobox is cited in body of article, (6) all claims in table are supported by RS, as is the lede, (7), good categorization, (8) article is stable with only the nom doing substantive recent work on it and just a short discussion on the Talk page. It would be nice to see some more images but I don't have any bright ideas of what could be included. It appears, from my own search, that the LGHOF doesn't have a brand logo, for instance. Anyway, I think this is a short and concise, but very well constructed list and good FLC! LavaBaron (talk) 01:27, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Source review: passed. Alright, second time's the charm, promoting! --PresN 21:32, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
