I am nominating this for featured list because all of the issues from the last FLC have been adressed (most notably, all of the citations have been changed so they do not violate any copyrights) and it seems ready for another nomination. ResMar 14:20, 4 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I will be the first to support. I can't see any problem.—Chris! ct 05:49, 10 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- My only quibble is that in the lead you refer to Thompson as "also known as "Count Rumford"", which to me reads as if it was a mere nickname. From his own article I think it was actually an aristocractic title, although the article isn't very clear. If that's the case then maybe change to "....Thompson, who held the title Count Rumford" or similar -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:26, 10 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Done. ResMar 19:56, 10 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- In that case I will be the second to support :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:02, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- "who held the title "count rumford" in.." might be wise to change it to "Count Rumford in the peerage of the X (replace with Ireland, Scotland, United Kingdom, whatever), since 1) Americans don't have titles and 2) it currently reads as "he held that title in 1796. Not 1796, not 1797, 1796." Might just be me being quibbly, but.. Ironholds (talk) 22:32, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support, all issues resolved. I won't let alt text hold up the nomination, but please try to folllow up with Eubulides. Dabomb87 (talk) 00:43, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OpposeThis list shouldn't be featured before there is alt text for every image. Try to do the alt text yourself then the other user can check it and improve it. Till then though the absence of alt texts violates 5b.--Diaa abdelmoneim (talk) 19:37, 4 October 2009 (UTC)Support the alt text was added.--Diaa abdelmoneim (talk) 18:36, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]ConditionalSupport pending alt text.

- Please have a go at the alt text. It may seem difficult but there are plenty of people who can help, and it is part of the criteria. The list is so close that it'd be a shame for to fail on this criterion alone. The Rambling Man (talk) 18:18, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I added the alt text, it's not that good but it's better than nothing.--Diaa abdelmoneim (talk) 18:36, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Great now! Staxringold talkcontribs 17:21, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Support. The 1971 prize members should be listed in the article (in a footnote) rather than via an external link in body text. (Wikipedia should be self-sufficient for information). Colin°Talk 19:43, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
