I am nominating this for featured list removal because it contains a section of entirely uncited information reliant on nothing but original research. An editor is insisting that it remains, which means that this article now fails the criteria necessary to be classed as one of WP's best. - The Bounder (talk) 11:25, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep it appears to have been removed, once again, and I would advocate it be added back into the talk page and discussed for sourcing etc, rather than any further slo-mo edit warring. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:07, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Director comment – Since the unsourced content has not been re-added in the last 20 days, and that was the primary issue (along with a potential lack of stability), I feel comfortable closing this as a keep. Giants2008 (Talk) 22:09, 30 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list removal because of a number of issues. The main table needs to be reformatted to fit current standards. There are numerous dead links per [[3]], some non notable awards such Phoenix Film Critics Society, Oklahoma, and Las Vegas are included. Uses some non reliable references such Alt Film Guide, Get the Big Picture and The Daily Mail, the references are also not formatted correctly e.g. Ref 68. No Alt text for main image. Cowlibob (talk) 11:17, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I'll try and save this one. The current issues with this list don't seem to be too bad, and could probably be fixed in a day or so. I haven't looked at the prose yet, but I'll get around to the list later today. Famous Hobo (talk) 18:05, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Alright, the table has been reformatted to meet current standards. I also added an alt text, filled in some missing references, and have started working on the deadlinks. I'll also been finding replacements for non reliable sources soon. Famous Hobo (talk) 23:06, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @Famous Hobo: Good work so far, let me know when you're finished. Cowlibob (talk) 16:24, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak keep the dead links aren't a killer for me, I'm sure that impacts just about every FL, archive.org could be helpful I suppose. The other issues aren't all that, and the work by Famous Hobo is proving excellent. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:12, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- FWIW, I've fixed the dead links and purged the list of Daily Mail nonsense. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:32, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, all of the dead links have been replaced or archived (additionally all of the redirect links have been replaced), the main table has been reformatted, non-notable awards have been removed, non-reliable references have been replaced, and an alt text has been added to the picture. I've also added two short sentences giving a plot overview of the film to the lead, since it just went straight to talking about the film's box office records. The only thing left to do is fix the formatting on some of the refs, and we should be done. Famous Hobo (talk) 22:29, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: This page only really needed a minor face lift and checkup, which I believe has been cleared, since Famous Hobo was Johnny-on-the-spot. I don't think this FLR is necessary at this point. DARTHBOTTO talk•cont 23:28, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: - User talk:Famous Hobo has saved the day! Mattximus (talk) 02:40, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Withdraw Good job, Famous Hobo. The rest of the improvements can be done out of the FLRC process. Cowlibob (talk) 11:00, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This list has sadly been neglected for about 6 years. Almost all the links have rotted away (12/23 links are dead, including all major links), and the list hasn't been updated to reflect the 2014 Olympics (!). The formatting of the tables and placement of images could also use work. This requires major work to bring up to FL status. Mattximus (talk) 17:42, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist unless nominator's comments are addressed. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:03, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This list suffers from severe neglect. It has not been updated in almost 8 years, and the lead needs to be completely rewritten as it is in a style that is no longer considered appropriate for featured lists. Specifically "This page is a list"... "This page shows,"... "In the following tables".... The tables themselves are also broken, and there has been an update tag since 2014... Mattximus (talk) 18:31, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist per nomination. Nowhere near our current standards. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:03, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This page simply fell into disarray due to lack of upkeep. It has not been updated for almost 5 years, thus missing significant content. Almost all the links have rotted away, and I count 39 dead links. Which means the page is almost entirely unsourced and would take quite a bit of effort to properly source them again and updated the table. Mattximus (talk) 17:37, 4 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist sadly the mass of dead links and the foreign-language sourcing required to bring it back up to date is way beyond me. Not an FL by current standards. Maybe the film project could help? The Rambling Man (talk) 11:37, 5 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist Important list but very poor sourcing, not up to date, lead needs to be revamped. Cowlibob (talk) 12:12, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
