List of international cricket centuries by David Boon[edit]

This list is based upon pre-existing lists of the similar type and I believe this is according to the FL criteria. Comments and suggestion are appreciated! Zia Khan 14:15, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Add "tied" in the key column.
  • Adelaide Oval's picture can't be used in this list due to fair use policy.
  • "Match starting day" is confusing in the case of ODIs.
  • "Kingston, Jamaica" ---> "Kingston"

  • Boon made both his Test and ODI debuts against ....
  • 1991–92 home series, by home you mean Australia?
  • "His accomplishments with the bat during the previous year led to him being named by Wisden as one of their Cricketers of the Year in 1994" – Wrong conclusion. The almanac names the players based on their performance in the previous English season. Jayasuriya may be an exception, not Boon.
    • Done. Zia Khan 12:27, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This one was progressing alright the first time around but then I had to go and disappear for a while (aliens).

  • Shouldn't " two-hundred and fifty " just be "250" or "two-hundred-and-fifty"?
  • "thrash band ... fellow thrash band..." not keen on the repetition and what's a "fellow" thrash band? It seems clear if they're both "thrash bands" then they'd be "fellows" of that genre.
  • "his inability to work on side projects" was this because he was actively prevented from doing so? Should be made clear.
  • Sad but True article has a small b for but, not necessarily part of this process but consider moving it appropriately.
  • I count only 12 Moss Brothers songs.
  • Ref 33 (for instance), avoid double periods.
  • Is it Nuclear Blast Records or just Nuclear Blast (per our article)?

The Rambling Man (talk) 17:04, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks for having a look at this. Got all of these bar the "Sad but True" thing—should I move the song page or fix the casing in the list? I get the feeling it's the latter but I'm not 100% on how conjunctions work with title case (this is from an english BA too...). GRAPPLE X 05:25, 3 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Songs - ...And Justice for All (both occurrences), Battery (both), Blackened, Die, Die My Darling (listed with an extra comma after the second Die), Sad But True (all versions; in regards to the above comment, it should be spelt however it appears on the album), To Live Is to Die, The Unforgiven II (links to section) and Welcome Home (Sanitarium)

  • Die, Die My Darling and Sad But/but True still need to be fixed (the extra comma and casing). I agree there's no harm in keeping them, just thought I'd let you know. --Lightlowemon (talk) 06:58, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Arsenal F.C. league record by opponent[edit]

Nominator(s): Lemonade51 (talk) 21:34, 2 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nominating this again after no 'consensus' was reached at the first time of asking. A complete list of Arsenal's record against every team they have played in the league, which wasn't the case when I nominated this months ago. All feedback is welcome, thanks. Lemonade51 (talk) 21:34, 2 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Confused. There is already a totals row. Unless you mean something else? Lemonade51 (talk) 20:56, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I believe he means at the very bottom of the article there should be a totals column for Arsenals overall record throughout their history. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 21:26, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure whether that is a necessary requirement. It'll be easy to accumulate the Premier League total, but very time-consuming for the other leagues Arsenal have played. Lemonade51 (talk) 17:05, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. Anyway, other than what Eddie said I can not find anything wrong with this list. It has everything someone doing research would expect and more. Easily earns my support. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 22:57, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction

  • First Division doesn't need to be linked twice in the first paragraph.
Removed.
  • Even though the article links to 2005-06 FA Premier League, i'm not sure it looks good having the words 'Premier League' as part of the link, as other season just have the years linked. I would suggest removing the words from the link. Same goes for 1894-95 Football League Season link.
Done.
  • " The team that Arsenal have played most in league competition is Manchester United, who they first met in the 1894–95 Football League season; the 78 defeats from 188 meetings is more than Arsenal have lost against any other club." suggest removing one of the mentions of Arsenal from that sentence, as the word Arsenal is used a lot in the last few sentences of the second paragraph.
removed Arsenal at second mention.

Key

  • "The table includes results of matches played by Arsenal (under that name and under former names Royal Arsenal and Woolwich Arsenal) in the United League, the Southern District Combination, the London League Premier Division, the Football League and the Premier League. Matches from the abandoned 1939–40 Football League season are excluded, as are games in the various wartime competitions." Firstly, i would rephrase the first sentence to say The table includes results of matches played by Arsenal (including under the former names of Royal Arsenal and Woolwich Arsenal). Secondly, add 'the' between 'as are' and 'games' in the second sentence.
Done and done.

Table

  • Burnley's figures to not total correctly.
You are right. Fixed.
  • Portsmouth away doesn't add up.
Fixed
  • Manchester United has 79 for defeats, yet in the article it states 78.
Whoops. Updated the table after United beat Arsenal a week and half ago, but forgot to tweak the prose to reflect that. Done it now.
  • There are several inconsistencies with the links to season articles. For example, Glossop links to 1899-1900 Football League, but Arsenal weren't in the same division as them that season. Also, Chatham is linked to 1899-1900 in English Football, while Chesterfield Town is linked to 1899-1900 Football League.
There isn't a United League (football) article (or Southern District Combination one for that matter), where Arsenal first played Glossop and Chatham, so I linked them to the respective English football season articles. Changed to specific articles, albeit with red links.

Hope that helps. Eddie6705 (talk) 18:00, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your thorough review! Lemonade51 (talk) 19:11, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Adding symbols would mean adding a colour scheme and in the case of West Ham, it would have been conflicting as they are Arsenal's divisional opponents, who they first met in the London League. So left notes clubs Arsenal first played in the United League, the Southern District Combination, the London League Premier Division (ie: discontinued leagues). Lemonade51 (talk) 21:32, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

List of DS:Style products[edit]

Nominator(s): PresN 22:47, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I'm finally nearing the end of getting all of WP:SE's lists to featured status- though of course, that means we're down to the even-more-obscure ones. Here we have what should be the bottom of that- the DS:Style line of educational software products for the Nintendo DS, which started out in 2007 with fascinating topics like gardening and yoga, and ended after 22 releases in 2011 with study guides for the Japanese real estate exam. Riveting stuff. The main point of notability for these Japan-only products is that they represented an attempt by Square Enix, a massive video game developer/publisher, to expand their product lines to include the non-traditional-gaming public. Turns out there's only so much you can do with that when producing software for a video game console. Anyways, thanks for reviewing! --PresN 22:47, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support Comments These lists really are getting to obscurity aren't they? Good luck on the last two Dragon Quest lists. Not sure what your position is on red links, but I'd consider linking LEC certification test, Japan Legal Mind, and even Tipness. They may not get articles any time soon, but a red link isn't necessary a bad link. Due to there being no parent article, a third paragraph in the lead with a bit of overviewing reception of the series from the reference links might give the article a bit of a boost. Also, just a heads up that all the Gamespot links are broken I believe. This is (as you noted) a very obscure list, especially as it doesn't have any English release and it's content is pretty much only concerning the originating language, good luck on the nomination. --Lightlowemon (talk) 11:37, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Fixed the broken links and added some redlinks. --PresN 18:32, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes they are, mind if I ask for your feedback about a potential third paragraph? --Lightlowemon (talk) 11:03, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Added one, but there weren't really reviews for them- they're really just software products, and as such after the first blip were largely ignored- they're the kind of thing you pick up in passing in the store, not the kind of thing you read big reviews of on websites, regardless of country. --PresN 04:15, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I figured, but pretty much what you put up was what I was looking for, just a couple of sentences given that this list has no main article. I see nothing else wrong with this now. --Lightlowemon (talk) 00:51, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • ...I can't believe I forgot about that. Ugh. Of course you were going to call me out on that; you did on my last video game FLC as well. We're in luck; IGN covered most of the games, and the Square Enix sites for the others had the release dates (which they don't always). No Gamespot refs remaining, col/row scopes added. --PresN 04:02, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Turns out LEC is actually a strange acronym for Legal Mind, K.K. (i.e. Inc.). Probably makes more sense in Japanese. Changed the text from the Japanese LEC certification tests to "Japanese professional licensing and civil servant exams". --PresN 18:49, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (C)[edit]

Nominator(s): MisterBee1966 (talk) 08:19, 18 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this a 2nd time for featured list because I still believe it meets the criteria. The first time around it was not promoted because the review timeframe expired and nobody seemed to have shown sufficient interest in the topic. Thanks to anyone willing to comment this time around. MisterBee1966 (talk) 08:19, 18 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

CommentsNot supported Support by Peacemaker67 (send... over) 08:51, 18 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No changes made: It is a procedural question. I had built this list with the information from the AKCR/Fellgiebel. I cited this information in the Role and rank column only, one cite per row. In the second pass, I verified this with the information from Scherzer. Here I chose to cite every item of the table. This helps me keep an overview. MisterBee1966 (talk) 09:11, 18 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't agree. I don't think a "one citation per line" approach is the answer to this query. Either all information on each recipient is clearly sourced, or it is not. My view (as described) is that it is not in its current form. I cannot support this nomination with that approach to sourcing, in my view a sortable tabularised list such as this is effectively incomplete without greater clarity of sourcing. Regards, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 11:51, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The citation style, citing every bit of info, follows the principles established during the reviews of List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (A), List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves recipients (1940–1941), 1942, 1943, 1944 and 1945. All of which are featured lists today. Even if your comment warrants addressing, which I have, I feel that a final review comment "Not Supported", without first engaging in an open discussion, is not best practice. MisterBee1966 (talk) 14:11, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I consider the citation approach used is not adequate in its current form, regardless of the status of the other articles that might use it. The result of the citation approach you have used is that the source of some of the data (Fellgiebel) is not evident. I have changed my precipitate opposition to a tentative one, but I firmly believe this must be addressed. Regards, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 11:32, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
As stated in my previous comment. I have implemented your suggestion! Have a look. The article lead already states that the list is based on Fellgiebel's book and deviations are derived from Scherzer's work. I don’t think that adding even more citations to this table helps clarity in any way. It would only impede load times. MisterBee1966 (talk) 12:14, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see where in the lead it says that "the list is based on Fellgiebel's book and deviations are derived from Scherzer's work". It states that the list (the assumption is the list of recipients) is drawn from Fellgiebel, but the point there is about the inclusion of a name on the list, not the details of the award itself in terms of rank or date of award. The addition of further citations from Fellgiebel is a significant improvement, but for example, Richard Czekay's rank of Hauptmann still needs to be cited, as does Erwin Clausen's date of award. When they are done I'll be happy to support. Regards, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 12:39, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It states "These recipients are listed in the 1986 edition of Walther-Peer Fellgiebel's book". Thanks for finding the other two citations. done MisterBee1966 (talk) 13:44, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
My point is that the lead doesn't state that some of the data varies between the two sources, predominantly ranks and dates of award. A list of names is one thing, variances in data relating to the award between the two sources is another as far as I am concerned. Regardless, the additional citations from Fellgiebel resolve my issue, supporting. Peacemaker67 (send... over) 00:24, 14 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Any reasons for not including the No. column?
The CMs are initially sorted by their states. The No. column would had been appropriate if sorting would had been on the basis of name or something which is unique to each one.
  • Rowscopes can be for "Name" column rather than the "State" column, as the former is more significant in this list.
I have added "rowspan" to the "State" column and thus it automatically has row scope. I can add rowscope to Name column if you don't have any problems with two rowscopes.
Since this list is about the list of chief ministers, I thought the "chief minister" column is the most important. Vensatry (Ping me) 16:54, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Editors' views are not uniform when it comes to "worldstatesmen.org". I got only one response at WP:RSN regarding this, which suggested that this source can be used in this list.

  • "the" is needed before the first mention of the International Cricket Council.
  • Try not to start a sentence with a numeral, like in "24 centuries were scored in the 2011 World Cup". You could spell the number out instead, though, and that would be okay.
  • "Adam Gilchrist holds the record the highest score in the finals...". Needs "for" after "record".
  • Tendulkar photo caption needs "in" after "appeared".
  • Don't think the first two words of the List of centuries section heading serve any purpose.
  • I'm not a fan of photo galleries in featured work, but that might just be my opinion. If it stays, the Viv Richard caption could use "in" at the end, like the Tendulkar caption.
    • Agreed, but for a list containing 127 entries images could add some flavour. Vensatry (Ping me) 05:02, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note 2: Should "his" be added before "ODI debut."?
    • I don't think that's necessary, since the sentence is pretty straight forward. Vensatry (Ping me) 05:02, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lastly, I urge you to reconsider the usage of the Taneja book. I've seen Gyan Publishing books that "borrowed" our writing without attribution to Wikipedia, and the first paragraph on the Cricket World Cup looks very similar to writing in our article.

  • Could you provide a reference for the lead image's caption?
  • Do you really need "the sport of" in the 1st sentence? The sentence also needs a reference.
    • Nothing wrong in having that since there are people in some parts of the world who are not even aware of it's existence. Ref added Vensatry (Ping me) 05:33, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Too many "players" in the 1st para, you may use "batsmen" instead.
    • I prefer not to use batsmen as "Players" is more generic. Vensatry (Ping me) 05:33, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Link Australia and India at first use.
  • made → scored
  • "Following that, the record was broken by Viv Richards (181), Gary Kirsten (188 not out) and Sourav Ganguly (183) in the 1987, 1996 and 1999 editions respectively." → You mean that Ganguly's score of 183 was greater then Kirsten's 189? I think the sentence should be finished at Kirstan's score.
    • I was talking about the Kapil Dev record so it was correct. Anyways I've removed. Vensatry (Ping me) 05:33, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • 1987, 1996 and 1999 etc. You may link the years to the corresponding tournaments where necessary.
  • "six centuries have been scored in the finals" → not supported by the current reference.And "of which five resulted in victories." is unreferenced.
  • New Zealand's, Australia's, Sri Lanka's etc. You may use something like "Indian batsman" or "Sri Lankan cricketer" etc.
  • Last sentence is unreferenced.

  • Ref. is not needed for lede if it's verifiable in the table. Vensatry (Ping me) 05:33, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Further comments

  • The symbols are not in the order as they are in the Key.
  • Add a statement to explain the sorting of the table.
  • IMO, second and third heading rows are useless, at least the second one which goes up and down when click on the main header.
    • Wouldn't it be helpful for navigation? I've removed the second header, as it messes up sorting. Vensatry (Ping me) 08:16, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • There no need of this. The main header is sufficient because this is a simple list to understand. Zia Khan 12:30, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        • A table consisting of 127 entries looks simple? I need a second opinion on this. Vensatry (Ping me) 13:53, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
          • There is a difference between simplicity and lengthiness. I mean this list is simple to understand. You may list every World Cup centuries separately. Zia Khan 21:26, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
            • Keen to know the difference between "lengthiness and simplicity". A table with 1651 cells is definitely complex IMO. The second header makes navigation easier for people who don't follow cricket, as these lists are not meant for cricket enthusiasts alone. Also there is no such rule that lengthier tables shouldn't have more than one header. If there exists such a guideline, I'd be happy to remove it. Vensatry (Ping me) 06:45, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
              • Have a look at List of India Twenty20 International cricketers, which definitely has less number of cells, but the header is more complicated there. The second header doesn't help the readers at all, this is only helpful for the last 10-12 entries (if that's enough then you need to have 8-10 headers for 127 enrties). I don't think there exist any guidelines for having second and third headers etc. Zia Khan 10:42, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It has only 45 entries and the table we are dealing with is almost thrice the length. When we navigate through the list the top header goes out of picture on the screen. Sure 8-10 headers may be helpful for table with 1000 entries. Vensatry (Ping me) 12:35, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
To add a little further, I've already said this was based upon List of centuries in women's Test cricket, an existing FL which uses three headers for 96 entries. Vensatry (Ping me) 12:54, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Many things have changed since that FL. Anyways, I'll wait for a third persons opinion. Zia Khan 20:32, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Many things? what exactly do you mean. Vensatry (Ping me) 04:40, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'll wait for Harrias as well. Vensatry (Ping me) 07:59, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I was asked to comment on this issue by the nominator. If I'm reading this correctly, the question concerns the extra header at the bottom of the list. I've seen much longer lists without an extra heading, but have also seen shorter lists with one. I probably wouldn't put an extra heading there myself, but it's not something that stood out to me when I reviewed it. There aren't any guidelines, as has already been said, so I'm comfortable following the nominator's style. Others are free to disagree, of course. Giants2008 (Talk) 01:21, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is this a sole criteria that is preventing this list to becoming a FL? If so, I'd be happy to change. Vensatry (Ping me) 16:44, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Could you align the contents of table to left instead of center (at least Team, Opposition and Venue columns) as they are looking odd. Zia Khan 20:26, 22 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • At least two entries are wrong in the "Date" column. Check the rest of the table too. Zia Khan 12:30, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Çomments
  • Add comma after "In 1992"
  • Maybe you can add a key for centuries scored in the finals.
  • I don't see any need for an extra header. f the list is too big, then it should be split into two lists: "World Cup centuries (1975-1999)" and "World Cup centuries (2003-2011)"
    • Done. Splitting the list would be a very bad idea as sorting/comparison of scores would become impossible. Vensatry (Ping me) 07:52, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Feroz Shah Kotla Ground" ---> "Feroz Shah Kotla"
    • That would be wrong as the ground was named after the fort. Vensatry (Ping me) 07:52, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Mumbai was called Bombay before 1995.
  • Chennai was called Madras before 1996.
  • "Players from countries that have permanent ODI status" is misleading because West Indies is not a country. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 07:18, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

List of Welsh Premier League clubs[edit]

Nominator(s): ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:21, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Loosely modelled on existing FL List of former Football League clubs (except that it in this case it features every club to have played in the league), I feel this meets all the requirements.... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:21, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Bold links like the one in the intro are discouraged by the MoS. I suggest simply dropping the bolding.
  • Redundant "league"s exist in "Since the league's formation, 38 clubs have competed in the league."
  • First two words of the List of clubs section heading are unneeded and could safely be dropped.
  • The Times champions column is currently sorting by fewest championships won, not most. Some sort templates would probably fix this. Giants2008 (Talk) 16:19, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
All sorted now I think -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:07, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • "......a name it retained until 2002, it was the first national football league in the country." This needs inline citation.
  • ...currently only has 12 member clubs. → No need of only
  • I think there is a need of punctuation after ...professional clubs.
  • Add a statement that explains the sorting of the table
    • Not sure what you mean here - are you saying that it should point out that people can re-sort the table by clicking on the arrows? Or are you saying that I should put in a statement that the initial sorting is based on alphabetical order of club name? I would have thought that was pretty self-evident without readers needing it to be pointed out...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:21, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • In which way is the list initially sorted? Zia Khan 12:23, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        • Surely that's obvious without needing to be explicitly stated? IMO, putting "the list is sorted in alphabetical order" at the top would just look stupid. Is there a guideline that covers this....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:10, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
          • I don't know the guidelines. You may add a sentence at the end of the text like this one. Zia Khan 20:46, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
            • Not 100% convinced, but have added it in anyway........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:48, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ground name should be mentioned in the alt text. Zia Khan 12:33, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

*Comments
  • The New Saints should sort under "New" rather than "The", meaning it should slot between Neath and Newton. Use the ((sort)) template to keep it in place (((sort|New Saints, The|[[The New Saints]])))
    Mostly an aesthetic change—and an entirely optional one—but you'd save a lot of scrolling/white space if the reflist was set to two or three columns rather than one.
    I'm not sure you need "WPL" in the column headings; shorter headings tend to look better and between the article title and the overall table header there's certainly no ambiguity there.
    You may want to consider alt text for the lead image.
    Might just be me but I feel the lead is very comma-heavy, as you seem to be using commas for parenthetical statements quite often. For example, "Although it is the highest level of the Welsh football league system, the Welsh Premier League has never included the country's professional clubs, Cardiff City, Swansea City, Wrexham and Newport County, all of whom play within the English league system" might be better off using dashes or brackets between "clubs" and "Cardiff" and "County" and "all" to create that aside.
    • Done - broke it up into two sentences and re-jigged it a bit -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:04, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Seems fine to me otherwise. GRAPPLE X 23:00, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • "league based in Wales, although one member club plays its home games in England" not sure you need the caveat. A league can be "based" anywhere, and presumably have "foreign" input. Maybe you could leave the caveat until later when you explain which current club plays in England rather than hit us with the potential confusion in the opening sentence?
  • "currently has" I think we've be trained to avoid "currently" in favour of ((as of))....
  • "Since its formation, 38 clubs have taken part in the competition" ->" Since its formation, 38 clubs have taken part in the Welsh Premier League".
  • Not a major issue but you have several redirects for bad A.F.C./F.C. combos.
  • "most recent completed season" is there an article for this?
  • Avoid spaces between text and footnotes.
  • Are all the notes satisfactorily referenced?
    • The notes are all derived from the FCHD sources, which are included on the relevant row of the table. Do I need to include them again in the notes themselves? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:33, 3 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
