The Mike Kable Young Gun Award recognises the best performing rookie in Australian touring car racing over the course of the season. Drivers such as Marcos Ambrose, Mark Winterbottom, James Courtney and Scott McLaughlin are past recipients of the award. This list has been revamped to a fully-referenced entry and look forward to receiving all comments and concerns. MWright96 (talk) 18:45, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Comments
- "The Mike Kable Young Gun Award (officially the Mike Kable Rookie of the Year)" - if it is officially the Rookie of the Year award, why is the article titled Young Gun Award? Is that the WP:COMMONNAME for it? If so, why do people call it that and not its proper name? Might be worth a clarification.
- "No one has won more than once as drivers from the second-tier championship have been honoured 13 times....." - this reads as if "as" is being used in the sense of "because" and it is saying that the reason nobody has won it more than once is because second-tier drivers have won it 13 times, which clearly isn't what you mean.

- Quick comment –
In "young racing drivers Mike Kable", I take it that the third word is meant to be singular?That's the only nit-pick I have. Giants2008 (Talk) 23:19, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]- @Giants2008: Changed MWright96 (talk) 07:37, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Is "A$15,000" the accepted way of writing "fifteen thousand Australian dollars" on Wikipedia? Since this list is dealing with a clearly Australian context is it necessary to specify that they are Australian dollars? I wonder if "A$15,000" could be misinterpreted in this context as meaning "American dollars" by a reader unfamiliar with that abbreviation. With regards to this I also have to question whether some sort of rough conversion to New Zealand dollars may be appropriate since Supercars Championship events are also held in Aotearoa and numerous prominent drivers in the series have come from New Zealand.

- @HumanBodyPiloter5: Yes according to MOS:CURRENCY but have written it in word form anyway. With regards to conversion to NZ dollars, I'm quite different to the change. MWright96 (talk) 08:37, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Source review – Pass
[edit]Doing now. Aza24 (talk) 04:04, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Some of the "publishers" are actually the websites, and should be put under the "website" parameter which italicizes them
- V8 Sleuth is published by AN1 Media
- Crash is published by Crash Media Group
- "FastLane.com.au" should be listed as the website
- speedcafe.com seems to be the publisher and website
- Reliabillity looks fine
- Formatting looks fine and consistent other than the issues above Aza24 (talk) 04:24, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
