I am nominating List of Casualty specials for featured list because I believe that it meets the criteria of a Featured List. In my opinion, the prose is professional and the lead is engaging, with a summary of Casualty and what the article lists included. It covers every aspect correctly, is within suitable length and meets requirements of the stand-alone lists. The list is easy to manage and navigate and complies with the MOS. The list give key information about the specials in a table format, which links to a section of prose about each special. No images are in the list, and the article is not subject to any sort of edit wars or content disputes. All comments are appreciated to my FLC and are considered very helpful! Thank you in advance.

  • Initial comments, more to come later
    • "and On Call starts a storyline" - all the other titles in this paragraph are in quotation marks, so presumably this one should be too
    • "there was several health and safety procedures" - were, surely?
    • "At the time of filming the specials, Taylor had filming on-location for four months" - "filmed"?
  • That's as far as I have got so far, I'll pick it up again later.... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:31, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • More comments
    • "She explained that Sam and Iain were in "a different world out there in Afghanistan."" - here the full stop is inside the speech marks, a couple of sentences later there is a similar usage but it is outside. Minor, I know, but best to be consistent throughout.....
    • "Sam, who he described" - whom
    • "Sarker found directing the webisode a challenge, although found it enjoyable" - "although she found it...."
    • "Kent stated that Noel become "anxious detectives" as they" - Noel isn't plural, so presumably the words "and Mac" have gone AWOL?
    • "Seven cast members feature in the special, and continues in the following episode" - "which continues....."
    • "The First Noel is a Christmas-themed" - missing quotation marks on title
  • Think that's it from me........... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:41, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - I made a slight grammar fix to the lead but otherwise it all looks good :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:34, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from Aoba47
  • This sentence (The drama has aired for thirty-one series and a thirty-second series currently airs. ) needs to be updated since the show is currently airing its thirty-third season.
  • For this part (It began on 8 May 2007 and it was cancelled in August 2008), I do not believe the second “it” is necessary.
  • I have a comment about how numbers greater than ten are represented. In some instance, they are represented by numerals (as in this case, “Casualty has produced 19 special episodes”) and in other areas, they are represented by words (as in this case “The drama has aired for thirty-one series and a thirty-second series currently airs”). I would encourage you to be consistent with one way or the other. Either approach would work so it is entirely up to you.

Great work with the list. Once my comments are addressed, I will be more than happy to support this for promotion. If you have the time, I would greatly appreciate any help/input with my current FLC. Either way, have a wonderful rest of your weekend! Aoba47 (talk) 21:02, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Done - I've addressed your comments and I thank you very much for your comments too! I shall add some comments of my own to your FLC now. Soaper1234 - talk 21:46, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
