Comments

Could you explain the sentence "In 2002 it took over Surrey County Council's large countryside estate"? Does that mean the Council used to manage an unknown number of the the nature reserves but now the trust does? The singular estate isn't clear to me.

I take it to mean that the Trust took over management of the council's parks and nature reserves, but I am reluctant to change the Trust's wording here in case I get it wrong. Do you have a suggestion?

I read the source and still don't quite know what they mean. Perhaps it's the difference in American and British English, but I don't read "large countryside estate" as several scattered parks and reserves. Perhaps there's a contemporary source that can clarify. Reywas92^Talk 16:23, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I see I missed this comment. I have limited access forthe next two weeks while I am on holiday but I will check when I get back. Dudley Miles (talk) 22:50, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

All the other designations in the second paragraph are common nouns and shouldn't be capitalized, e.g. National nature reserve (United Kingdom) and Local nature reserve

See my reply in Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Local Nature Reserves in East Sussex/archive1. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The same citation doesn't need to be duplicated for both the site name and description

I think it is better as in some cases such as Chobham Common the description is from a different source. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

None of the SU##### or TQ#### links in the location column are working for me, they need to be updated to whatever they are

I have raised a query with the editor who maintains grid references, and will update or delete if it is not just a temporary bug. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Bay Pond: What makes this educational? And they're all run by the Trust since they're listed here so that's unnecessary to state.

This is one of the sites which are not open to the public and are run by Trusts to provide educational facilities for schools. SWT does not specifically mention schools, but it does mention an outdoor classroom so I have added this. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Bisley: "There are mammals such as roe deer and invertebrates include..." needs a comma between the independent clauses. Barossa, Fir Tree Copse, and a few others need this too
Brentmoor doesn't need a comma after adders

I have never been clear about the rules about commas, but I have changed as you suggest. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Pampa Award[edit]

Nominator(s): Yashthepunisher (talk) 20:14, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

No reason for a capital on "Literature" in the infobox
In fact, why not put "Civilian award for contributions to Kannada literature" in the infobox?
No reason for a capital on "Awardees" in the heading
"The award was established in 1987 by Government of Karnataka" => "The award was established in 1987 by the government of Karnataka"
"It is awarded each year for a best literary work, written in the Kannada language (one of the 22 Official languages of India) or for a lifetime contribution to Kannada literature by a citizen of Karnataka." - this sentence makes it sound like the award can currently be given for either of these things, but that doesn't seem to be true. Changing it would risk duplicating sentences in the second paragraph, so maybe just combine it with the previous sentence and say "It is the highest literary honor conferred by the Department of Kannada and Culture, Government of Karnataka State, and recognises works written in the Kannada language (one of the 22 official languages of India)" (no capital on "official")
"The award comprises a cash prize of ₹1 lakh" - but it doesn't, because later on you say it's been 3 lakh for more than 10 years. So this would need to change to "The award originally comprised a cash prize of ₹1 lakh"
" the assassination of M. M. Kalburgi" => " the assassination of the scholar M. M. Kalburgi" (gives some context as to who he actually was)
The lead seems very brief at only 1400 characters (not enough for a DYK). Is there anything more that could be added/expanded on?

I have added bits in the third para but there is nothing much I could find to add.

For what was the award given from 2007 to 2010?
Did nobody win last year?

No.

Any idea why not? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:16, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Got a couple links to fix (some simple, some not so much)

List of Olympic ice hockey players for the Soviet Union[edit]

Nominator(s): Kaiser matias (talk) 20:14, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done up in the style of the previous Olympic ice hockey featured lists (Poland, Canada, Switzerland, United States). My biggest concern is that there aren't many free images to use for the article, and few that do exist are not really appropriate (either not great quality or not going to add much). Any comments are appreciated, and will address them as soon as possible. Kaiser matias (talk) 20:14, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

", first in 1956 and the last in 1988." => ", the first in 1956 and the last in 1988."
"In protest of this policy" => "In protest at this policy"
"Canada withdrew from the 1972 and 1976 Olympics in protest." - you said "in protest" at the start of the sentence, you don't need to say it again at the end
"When the Soviet Union dissolved it was replaced in subsequent tournaments it was succeeded by the Unified Team (1992), the Russia (since 1994)" - this is really mangled. It should probably be "When the Soviet Union dissolved it was replaced at subsequent tournaments by the Unified Team (1992) and Russia (since 1994)"
"Goaltender Vladislav Tretiak played in 4 tournaments" => four tournaments
"across 3 Olympics" => "across three Olympics"
In note a, Latvia is spelt incorrectly
In notes a and b I think you need a bit more explanation of "builder", as it sounds like they let construction workers into the Hall of Fame

All images are missing alt text.
"In protest at this policy Canada..." Add a comma after "policy".
"Throughout its existence the Soviet Union..." Add a comma after "existence".
"When the Soviet Union dissolved it was replaced..." Add a comma after "dissolved".
Drop the comma after "Unified Team (1992),"
"Medals" columns (both tables): The same sort key has been applied to gold, silver, and bronze medals such that they don't sort at all. List of Olympic men's ice hockey players for Canada, for example, has golds with a whole number of 3, silver with 2, and bronze with 1.

List of Nashville Sounds broadcasters[edit]

In addition to meeting the criteria, this is the next-to-last team-related article before a push towards a Featured Topic. NatureBoyMD (talk) 14:48, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved comments from The Rambling Man (talk) 07:24, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comments Is the title correct? The category is "announcers", the lead calls them "lead broadcasters" (which is linked to "sports commentator"), but nothing says "broadcaster" on its own. Maybe? It follows the naming convention set down by every MLB team's broadcasters list (see Template:Lists of Major League Baseball broadcasters). Sports commentator#Main/play-by-play commentator does mention the term "broadcaster". The references use "broadcaster" and "announcer" interchangeably with "announcer" seeming to appear more often. Despite possibly making things more convoluted, I've changed the column header to "Play-by-play announcers" and swapped out a few instances of "broadcaster" with "announcer". Do you (or does anyone else) think I should proceed with further changes? How so? NatureBoyMD (talk) 22:33, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply] I don't know, it seems a bit like a bugger's muddle there with so many different ways to refer to essentially the same thing. It's not a big deal I guess as long as we're being consistent, but it might be a good opportunity to align these terms for such lists and categories? The Rambling Man (talk) 17:41, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply] I created Category:Minor League Baseball broadcasters to which I added this list and what minor league broadcasters I could find at Category:Baseball announcers. At present, all MLB (as well as the other major American leagues: ~~NFL~~, NBA, and NHL) use the term "broadcaster" in categories and lists league-wide and for each team. Dictionary.com indicates "broadcaster" can be used to refer to both the individual announcer and the station broadcasting a game. I also changed the section title for this list to "Announcers and stations". I'm not sure how (or if) to proceed beyond that. NatureBoyMD (talk) 21:18, 21 May 2019 (UTC) Follow-up: The NFL uses "announcers" for the league and "broadcasters" for each team. Go figure. NatureBoyMD (talk) 21:21, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply] Only three of the seven notable enough for an article? It looks that way. The other four are all known for their minor league and collegiate broadcasting; three are active, one is now an accountant. Steve Selby, now a redirect to this list, was successfully PROD'd in 2008.

Is the title correct? The category is "announcers", the lead calls them "lead broadcasters" (which is linked to "sports commentator"), but nothing says "broadcaster" on its own.

Maybe? It follows the naming convention set down by every MLB team's broadcasters list (see Template:Lists of Major League Baseball broadcasters). Sports commentator#Main/play-by-play commentator does mention the term "broadcaster". The references use "broadcaster" and "announcer" interchangeably with "announcer" seeming to appear more often. Despite possibly making things more convoluted, I've changed the column header to "Play-by-play announcers" and swapped out a few instances of "broadcaster" with "announcer". Do you (or does anyone else) think I should proceed with further changes? How so? NatureBoyMD (talk) 22:33, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know, it seems a bit like a bugger's muddle there with so many different ways to refer to essentially the same thing. It's not a big deal I guess as long as we're being consistent, but it might be a good opportunity to align these terms for such lists and categories? The Rambling Man (talk) 17:41, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I created Category:Minor League Baseball broadcasters to which I added this list and what minor league broadcasters I could find at Category:Baseball announcers. At present, all MLB (as well as the other major American leagues: ~~NFL~~, NBA, and NHL) use the term "broadcaster" in categories and lists league-wide and for each team. Dictionary.com indicates "broadcaster" can be used to refer to both the individual announcer and the station broadcasting a game. I also changed the section title for this list to "Announcers and stations". I'm not sure how (or if) to proceed beyond that. NatureBoyMD (talk) 21:18, 21 May 2019 (UTC) Follow-up: The NFL uses "announcers" for the league and "broadcasters" for each team. Go figure. NatureBoyMD (talk) 21:21, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Only three of the seven notable enough for an article?

It looks that way. The other four are all known for their minor league and collegiate broadcasting; three are active, one is now an accountant. Steve Selby, now a redirect to this list, was successfully PROD'd in 2008. NatureBoyMD (talk)

Besides when they came and went, and which station(s) they broadcast on, is there anything of interest to note about any of these individuals' tenures as broadcaster while working for the Sounds?

A couple of questions, at least one of which may be down to my unfamiliarity with how US sports coverage works

The text concentrates (understandably) on the radio announcers, but also mentions that some games were televised. Were the listed announcers also used for the TV coverage? As far as I can see that isn't made explicitly clear.

I've added text explaining that the radio announcers provided commentary for TV games except in the 1979 season. I've not added the TV announcer to the table. I'm wondering if I should create a separate table for TV announcers & stations or try to sandwich his name into the existing table. ? NatureBoyMD (talk) 14:56, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'd suggest just making it a footnote, TBH -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:23, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a footnote beside the station in the table. NatureBoyMD (talk) 16:12, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

By the sound of things the announcers are employed by the club, rather than by a radio station, which is the opposite of what I am used to here in the UK but presumably explains why the coverage was able to jump from station to station but retain the same announcer. But why does the coverage change stations? Might it be worth a sentence or two saying something like "Sounds games have been broadcast on 13 radio stations in the club's history, changing because [whatever the reason is - contract re-negotiations.....?]"

Correct, the team has a contract with an announcer to call the games and a separate contact with a station to air the broadcast. (Though, the 1978 announcer owned the station.) I've added prose regarding why the first station was selected, why they switched in the second year, and reasons for subsequent station changes. NatureBoyMD (talk) 14:56, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Timeline of the 2018 Atlantic hurricane season[edit]

Nominator(s): TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk · contributions) 04:47, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Like 2016 and 2017 before it, the 2018 Atlantic hurricane season was yet another damaging year for tropical cyclones. The two names that will forever be associated with 2018 are Florence and Michael. Florence caused catastrophic flooding across North Carolina and South Carolina in mid-September. Michael, meanwhile, was the first Category 5 hurricane to strike the United States since Andrew in 1992. Together, these storms killed over 120 people and cost nearly $50 billion in damage. This timeline represents the season as it unfolded. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk · contributions) 04:47, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

List of national memorials of the United States[edit]

Nominator(s): Reywas92^Talk 22:10, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This was originally just going to be the National Park Service units like List of national lakeshores and seashores of the United States but then I doubled my workload with the memorials that are independently operated but don't receive the billing the NPS sites do. Congress is quite inconsistent with naming sites as "national memorials" as they either authorize construction of memorials or commemorative works that may or may not be built or other times name an existing site, so I read a lot of legislation during this project. Anyway I look forward to your comments. Reywas92^Talk 22:10, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from BeatlesLedTV

Many links need to be fixed; some green some blue, many redirects, and one dead link
"The National Park Service manages 30 national memorial as official units." → memorials
The link "other national monuments" doesn't go anywhere
"Area [9][8]" → remove space
You use "U.S." in some instances and "US" (no periods) in others. Make sure it's consistent
Why no area for Pearl Harbor?
"Thaddeus Kosciuszko" ".02 acres" → "0.02 acres"
Center all the image cols
Put en dashes in squares with no images

All I got. Great job on this! – BeatlesLedTV (talk) 19:23, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Kerala State Film Award for Best Director[edit]

Nominator(s): Yashthepunisher (talk) 11:49, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because I feel it meets the criteria. It is modeled on the existing FLs of the Kerala State Award. Thank you. Yashthepunisher (talk) 11:49, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from zmbro

Links look good
Add scope rows to the table (name col)
Is there an image available for the figurine awarded?

I'm afraid there are no free images available.

Why was there no winner in 2002?

I could not find any information beyond that on the internet or any book.

I actually had the same issue with the Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award so all good there.

Should there be mention of the first female winner in the lead? As well as how many women have won in general?
There's a random extra table that's very small above the main table – remove this
Maybe add an extra table for multiple winners?

But that wouldn't go with the similar existing FLs in this category.

Looks good. Great job! – zmbro (talk) 19:31, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

"have won the award two times in their careers" => "have won the award twice in their careers"

"The Academy did not present the award in the 2002 ceremony" => "The Academy did not present the award at the 2002 ceremony"
"Shyamaprasad who was awarded for his film" => "Shyamaprasad, who received the award for his film"
The infobox says "Total awarded: 49" but this does not match the prose
I don't know if this is a Chrome-specific issue, but on my screen I can see a random small rectangle between the "winners" heading and the table caption - why's that there?
The table sorts on first name/initial - it should sort on surname

Comments from Aoba47

I would add ALT text for the images.
Under the section title for the "Winners" section, there is an empty box/cell. It could just be something with my computer, but I am wondering if this is a formatting error of some kind?
I have a clarification question about this part (The awardees are decided by an independent jury formed by the academy.). You mention in the lead that the academy was started having influence in the awards after 1998. Was this jury used before 1998 or was a different method used to select winners?

The winners have always been decided by the jury even before the academy was setup.

That makes sense. Thank you for the clarification. Aoba47 (talk) 19:35, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure the "figurine" wikilink is necessary.
Is there a reason why an image of G. Aravindan is not used for the list as he is the person who won the award the most?

The only image of his available on common's has licensing issues.

Then I agree that it is best to not use it. Thank you for the clarification. Aoba47 (talk) 19:35, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There are some instances where you use "the academy" (i.e. The awardees are decided by an independent jury formed by the academy.) and "the Academy" (i.e. The Academy did not present the award in the 2002 ceremony.). Make sure to be consistent with either format.

I hope this helps. Once my comments are addressed, I will read through the list again and most likely support it. Aoba47 (talk) 15:56, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Source review – The reliability of the references looks fine, and the link-checker tool shows no problems. There were a couple of small formatting issues that I feel compelled to bring up before this gets promoted:

Ref 4 (Cultural Heritage of Kerala) has an author listed on Google Books that isn't provided in the article (A. Sreedhara Menon, which you can see on the book cover), and no page number is given. The latter sometimes happens with Google Books excerpts (I can't access an excerpt for this book from the U.S.), but the author should definitely be listed, and the page number provided if Google Books gives you one. Also, since this is a book cite, an access date isn't required (refs 1 and 2 are similar and already don't have them).
The archived version of ref 4 isn't that helpful and could be removed. Google Books excerpts don't archive properly in the Internet Archive, and this is just the summary page anyway, not something that aids in verifying content. Giants2008 (Talk) 21:20, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"It is the only Vietnamese film to have secured a nomination and the first nomination received by a Southeast Asian country in the category" --> add a comma after "secured a nomination" and add "was" before "the first nomination"
"It was, however, failed to included on the final list, announced by the AMPAS in October." --> "It was not, however, included on the final list announced by the AMPAS in October."
"Vietnam began to receive AMPAS' invitation to participate in the competition in 2006, after they require films to be released at least seven consecutive days in a commercial movie theater in their respective country during the eligibility period." --> "Vietnam began to receive AMPAS' invitation to participate in the competition in 2006, when a requirement was introduced that films needed to be commercially-released for at least seven consecutive days in a movie theater in its respective country during the eligibility period."

Comments from HĐ

For sources from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences only the first reference should include the full name of the organization; for the followups just set the publisher to simply "AMPAS" (with wikilink removed).
I'm not sure if press releases qualify for reliable sources; I have encountered contrary opinions previously. If possible I'd recommend finding other reports from secondary sources instead of press releases. They're fine to me, but I'm not sure if other reviewers will point this out as an issue
Unlink "United States" in the lead and shorten it to "US"

Given the triviality of my concerns, I support this list for promotion, fantastic list content-wise and format-wise. HĐ (talk) 01:47, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Aoba47

The image caption for the Trần Anh Hùng image should have punctuation as it is a full sentence.
For this sentence (It is the only Vietnamese film to have secured a nomination), I would simplify "to have secured" to "to secure".
For this part (was the only film responded to an open call for entries), I think that "submitted" would work better in this context.

Otherwise, everything looks good to me. Once these relatively minor points are addressed, I will be more than happy to support this for promotion. Aoba47 (talk) 16:03, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
