List of Washington Commanders seasons

I am nominating this for featured list removal because it fails a number of criteria:

  • 1. Prose: the prose is choppy (the opening sentence is self-referencing), the first paragraph especially could use a good rewrite
  • 2. Lead: there are also a ton of duplicate links in the lead. Some clarifications are needed (was their worst record based on total losses or winning percentage?)
  • 3b. Comprehensiveness: primary issue here, the list lacks necessary inline citations in the lead and within the table (the awards especially). Sources lack consistent formatting (dates especially) and there is too much of a reliance on "general references". Some sources appear to either be dead, out of date or unreliable.
  • 4. Structure: the notes and inline cites need to be split into separate sections.
  • Accessibility: the list lacks all accessibility features expected of WP:FL today, both in the table, the key and no alt text on the photo.

The list was nominated over 15 years ago when standards were quite different. These issues either need to be addressed or the article delisted. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:45, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi everyone! I am currently working on it. Hopefully, I can fix the issues mentioned above. Jwalte04 (talk) 15:22, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello again! I have made a bunch of improvements to the article. Hopefully I did all that was required. But please let me know if you have any other suggestions to make this article better! Jwalte04 (talk) 01:49, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Jwalte04, amazing job. This looks so much better. I have some specific comments below:
  • Super Bowl XXVI is linked twice in the lead
  • Recommend that the hasktag symbol (#) be superscript (#) to avoid things like NFC# where it doesn't look like a symbol and looks like part of the acronym.
  • Unless it is a purely explanatory note (as an example Does not include postseason victories would be a purely explanatory note), it should have an inline citation.
  • There are sentences in the lead that don't have an inline citation. Each sentence(s)/paragraph should end with an inline citation.
  • The totals in the last row of the table don't line up with their respective columns.
Thanks for taking this on, you've done a great job! « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 15:50, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I think we are all set! Jwalte04 (talk) 21:24, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Jwalte04, I have no more comments. Nice work! « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 22:22, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
