Almost every sentence in the Soak City paragraph starts with "In 199X..." This makes the section difficult to read, and could use some variation to increase sentence fluency. That's the only comment I have. Red Phoenix build the future...remember the past... 18:38, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series for featured list because I believe that this meets the criteria. Also, I previously nominated Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series and it became an FL. Therefore, I have made the same requirements as I did for the other article and I strongly believe that it should become an FL. Thank you.

- Nominator(s): HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:50, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
This is, in my (not-so-humble) opinion, a fascinating subject covering European politics and conflict from the beginning of the fourteenth century to the end of the eighteenth. Gibraltar is a tiny piece of rock on the south coast of Spain, but its proximity to North Africa and its position at the entrance to the Mediterranean have given it an importance in world history quite disproportionate to its size. This was great fun to write, and I'd like to think it's up to FL standard. As ever, constructive criticism and suggestions for improvement are very welcome. Thanks, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:50, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. This is obviously a quality article, but I'd argue that it goes beyond the realm of "list article" and is more appropriately a full article.

Comments nice work.
- "Despite its small size," not sure you need "small", it's self-evident.
- You're right; gone.
- "began later in the eighth century. The campaign eventually took 800 years to force the Moors back across the Strait, and did not reach the Bay of Gibraltar until the fourteenth century" forgive my maths but this doesn't seem to add up to me...
- It reached the bay in the early fourteenth century (leading to the first siege), but the campaign wasn't concluded for nearly another 200 years.
- Is it worth linking Castilian people? Or something you deem more appropriate?
- I can't see any harm in it.
- "fell out with each other" perhaps this is expanded upon later, but I'm not sure if this is fully explanatory.
- I'm reluctant to go into more detail there for fear of duplicating (rather than summarising) the table, unless you think it's necessary?
- "walls.[34][33]" could we have refs in numerical order?
- Of course, done.
- "of the Reconquesta, decided" earlier, it was the Reconquista.

I've been working on this list on and off for a few months, and think I finally have it in shape for a FLC run. I've based the general format off of the other featured governors lists, but, as always, formatting lists is not my strongest skill. Thanks in advance for your comments, Dana boomer (talk) 21:23, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Quick comments
- Restrict the colour to a band like in the Alaska list.
- Not sure the point of "Other offices held" in this and similar articles. This should be a simple list of a state's governors, why complicate it with a list of everything else the governors have done in their life? Of course, if a governor went on to serve as President or something very senior in the federal cabinet, you could mention it as a note or in the lead, but another table is overkill.
- Living former governors: similarly, you could just add a § symbol against each living governor in the main table and add a note explaining so.—indopug (talk) 04:22, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- (I haven't worked on this article [yet] but I made the other featured governor articles) I've been wondering about these tables. My personal rules - which are perhaps arbitrary - has been to include: Congressional offices; High executive (President, VP, Cabinet); Governorships; District Court Judge or higher; Ambassadorships; the previous entries for both the USA and CSA; and major foreign posts, like president of another country. Some states have an extraordinarily long list of people who fit into this; just see New York, with, among others: six VPs, 2 Chief Justices, 4 Presidents, and 7 top cabinet secretaries. This was originally expressed as a simple list, I wanted to change it into something more formal. However, I agree: It's a little beyond the scope.
- As for the living governors list... this too seems extraneous. If you want to see who the living governors are, click a few links; no state has more than a handful. It's not really vital information that needs to be shared, and it raises the maintenance costs of the article.
- If it's the will of the FLC voters, I'll go through all my previous featured governor lists and prune these out, or convert to text where logical. And this one could serve as the new template, with work. --Golbez (talk) 14:27, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I have yet to have it explained to me why a band of color is better than a full cell of color. As I've said before, I won't revert if someone else goes through and makes the change, but as far as I know, the current format is not counter to WP:ACCESS or anything other guideline. I think the "other offices held" is quite interesting, and would be much less handy in notes, and very unwieldy in the lead. Expressing the number of House and Senate seats held in prose, rather than as part of the list, would help cut down the size. Would that help? I've removed the living governors section, and instead included the information in a couple of new sentences in the lead. That seems easier for people using screenreaders, etc. then having even more symbols/columns in the table. Dana boomer (talk) 01:12, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I certainly wouldn't suggest it being in footnotes, as that's not the point of the table. It's a list of governors, not a list of people who have been governor; it's a subtle distinction. --Golbez (talk) 01:49, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Colour—in the current format the colours overwhelm the table and affects the list's appearance (5a). Remember, the point of the colours is only to give a quick indication of affiliation; you don't need a colourful table for that.—indopug (talk) 12:02, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I guess I don't see the color as overwhelming - to me the color draws the eye across the table and makes the flow a bit better. If other reviewers disagree, though, I'll go ahead and change it. What are you thoughts on my suggestion above (in the comment on 31 March 2013) on condensing the "other offices held" table? Dana boomer (talk) 01:13, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Background color on table cells is an accessibility issue. Blue-on-red and blue-on-blue are both very difficult to read. (On a less important note, it's just gaudy.) —Designate (talk) 21:30, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't see why we need to list things like house, senate, ambassadorships etc... Successful politicians (which state governors obviously are) usually hold a number of positions in their lives. As for the lead, I meant doing something like "X went on to serve as President of the United States, while Y became Vice President"; just as a shoutout to a couple of people who got the highest jobs among the lot.
- Living people in the lead—this is a little too detailed (with the brackets, date ranges and birth dates). I'd change it to "As of January 2013, four former governors were alive, the oldest being William Milliken (born 1922). The others are James Blanchard, John Engler and Jennifer Granholm. The most recent governor to die was George W. Romney, in 1995."—indopug (talk) 07:04, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I attempted to transfer the list over to the color scheme preferred by all above, but unfortunately failed. I can't figure out how to get the formatting to work with row and column scopes, and none of the other governors lists have row and column scopes to allow me to shamelessly copy :) If any of the formatting gurus here could do a row as an example, I would be quite grateful. Thanks, Dana boomer (talk) 01:26, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- OK, Golbez has figured out the formatting (thank you!!!) and so the colors are now switched over. I've removed the governorship dates from the living governors in the lead, but left the birthdates, as these are useful and not found elsewhere in the article. I've converted House and Senate appointments to prose, which leaves us with several governors who also held ambassadorships, Supreme Court positions, etc. As is shown by the fact that there are only a few, this is not something that most governors do, and I think it's interesting information and useful to readers. Can we maybe get a compromise position here, since quite a bit of what you have suggested has been implemented? Dana boomer (talk) 19:59, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The list was promoted by Giants2008 10:01, 24 June 2013 (UTC) [9].[reply]
I've nominated this list for featured list status because I've put a lot of effort into it twice now and I believe it meets the FL criteria (or can meet it easily with some helpful feedback from those reviewing this nomination). Five years ago, I managed to make this a featured list here on Wikipedia. Then, I stopped editing for a long time and while I was away, it was delisted because references went down and some of the reliability standards had changed. This time, I used references deemed reliable by WP:VG/S in order to put together this list and I've rewritten a significant portion of the lead, as well as restyled it a bit to better illustrate which games on this list utilize the Sega Mega-CD as well as the 32X.

- Support on prose and images. Good job! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:51, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Support with a few comments - 1) There's a few rows where you link Sega in the developer but not the publisher, and a few where you link in both- be consistent. 2) Any more identifying information on the Man!ac Magazine source? ISSN, page numbers? 3) Normally I'd prefer if JP/NA/PAL were separate columns that could be sorted individually, but with 40 releases I think it's okay here not to. 4) You didn't link Allgame in ref 22. 5) Consider archiving your references with webcitation.org or we.archive.org - while it's unlikely that Allgame or IGN will vanish or remove content, if either did so the list would become unreferenced. --PresN 22:44, 13 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Hmm, not sure how I missed the Sega links and the missing Allgame link, but those are now fixed. I'll consider archiving the sources, but with 50 refs or so, that'll be a little tedious and take some time (but it would be nice to keep this at FL status forever). As for the Man!ac source... unfortunately, no I don't have any more information. It turns out that Man!ac (now M! Games, a German publication) doesn't archive their old issues on their website, so I can't seem to find any page numbers. I will do what I can, of course, but at the bare minimum having the article title, issue, and publication ought to suffice if nothing else. Red Phoenix build the future...remember the past... 23:47, 13 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Source comments –
- In reference 5, since the publisher is a magazine, it should be italicized.
- Also, I don't think the comma in May, 1995 should be there unless it is presented that way in the magazine itself.
- What makes RetroCollect (ref 40) a reliable source? Giants2008 (Talk) 18:08, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Done. I think you about gave me a heart attack there... I'll explain, it's rather humorous. RetroCollect, I really can't vouch for its reliability and only used it because I couldn't find its info anywhere else, since the 32X CD version of Surgical Strike was exclusive to Brazil. Didn't think I would, either. Fortunately, and probably even better still, I found a great reliable source for Surgical Strike's 32X CD version, and one I'll likely use in the future now. I was able to find information from ConsoleCity.com, which is a site belonging to UGO Networks, considered reliable per WP:VG/S. Also, the two citations I had to other RetroCollect pages were not needed, as Allgame and IGN do an otherwise adequate job of covering the games, so I removed those as well. I think we can safely put this to bed. Red Phoenix build the future...remember the past... 23:20, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Having redeveloped this article based on previous featured episode lists, I believe it may now meet the FL criteria. Any comments that will help improve the list are welcome. Holiday56 (talk) 05:27, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
LeaningSupport - Prose looks and reads very well, and the lists are all in great condition. However, several of the citations have double parentesis going on (Ex. ""Title" of This"), when it should be single mark followed by parenthesis (Ex. "'Title' of This"). Also, the image/season navigator at the top left of the page are oddly cluttered. These however, are the only "blemishes" I could find on an otherwise great list.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 02:08, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]- Checked the references section for any instances of extra quotation marks, and couldn't find any—unless I happened to miss one, I think that's cleared up.
As for the season navigator, I'd like to know where you'd propose placing it—under the image, perhaps?Otherwise, thanks for the support; your comments are appreciated. Holiday56 (talk) 06:36, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]- Removed the season navigator per below comments, as it doesn't seem necessary with the presence of the season overview section.

Support, with comments
- "106 episodes of the series have been broadcast..." sentence starts with a bare number. Preferably should be rewritten to include the number in the middle of the sentence somewhere.
- Rewritten. Holiday56 (talk) 03:58, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Is "Hi-Five Ghost" the correct (or most accepted) spelling of the character's name?
- It's the spelling used in the credits and written out in several episodes of the series. Holiday56 (talk) 03:58, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Table caption on the series overview table seems redundant, as do the ones on the season episode tables.
- The table captions are present for easier accessibility. I've seen them used in several other featured episode lists. Holiday56 (talk) 03:58, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because in my opinion it meets the criteria and is of similar quality as other already featured lists of places. Note I have made significant improvements upgrading it from this to what it is now. CRwikiCA talk 13:38, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Were you going to place any dates on founding in the list and/or the name origins?Coal town guy (talk) 14:03, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Founding dates do generally not exist. Only for some merged municipalities there would be an actual date, most municipalities would have at most a rough estimation of when the spot was settled. Because the field would have different meanings for different municipalities I don't think it would be good to include it. Although the origin of the name of the town is interesting, I do not personally see it as important as other items that could be added. One of the other columns that I often see is maps, which I could add. I hadn't done it because loading ~500 images might be much, but if that would not be a problem for Wikipedia users, I would be happy to add those. CRwikiCA talk 15:31, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Understood, a map image may be helpful, in fact, I would advise it. Taker a look at the Featured lists for some US Counties , and they do have a table structure which would allow you to use a map, with the sole purpose of showing a pinpooint location. I kmow it does sound US centric to suggest, but I was only looking at your statement about maps. Its been a few years since I have been to the NetherlandsCoal town guy (talk) 18:00, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I added the maps, as you can see someone had already made nice graphical maps which were easy to include. It does add a nice touch to the tables. CRwikiCA talk 22:31, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Well done. The only gap I see is maybe a few words about special municipalities, what they in comparison to a "regular" one. Addditionally, the intro paragraph, EXCELLENT. However, I would strongly suggest getting some refs as to the type of government in the Netherlands, maybe a quote from its constitution. My Dutch is rather piss poor BUT I could look for a German version. I had to do so for the FL candidate I had promoted (quote local constitution), learned alot in that process for certain. My roommate was from the Netherlands and was possibly my best German teacher I had. His American English has also vastly improved, thanks to our mutual desire to sound better when we spoke. He forbade me to learn any Dutch though....Coal town guy (talk) 12:29, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for your comments and constructive critism, it is the first time I am sending an article through a process like this. If I were to interpret your advice I would say to reference the relevant law texts as well in the parts were only the English-language Dutch government sites are referenced. Would this be what you mean? Most laws are available to read online, so it should be possible to find the relevant passages. Writing these articles does indeed teach you a lot, especially when you research a topic a bit. CRwikiCA talk 14:01, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- To the point of quoting your specific constitution, yes, you are correct. IF you are able, not required, try to foind a book via google books that would have some interpretation of said document. BOTH are fine, but my experience has shown me that there is a sort of preferance for books if possibleCoal town guy (talk) 14:05, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I added some additional references to the constitution, the municipalities act and a book on municipal law. This should add some more context to the municipal status section. Do you have any other comments about the List-article? CRwikiCA talk 16:23, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, get some refs on the terms of office ( 4 years) and the functions of the municipalities. Its starting to look very nice. Also, ANY Etymology?? Additionally, you will needs refs on any and all population stats.Coal town guy (talk) 16:45, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The population stats are referenced in the column headers where applicable. Only the population density for the special municipalities is not referenced, because I could not find a source, so they are computed from the other two. Should I refer to a note that states that? The four year term is actually the constitutional reference and the translation in English and 3 additional languages is available on the linked official government website. A sentence (or two) about the etymology of the name gemeente is a good idea, I also realize that the term gemeente only occurs in the lead and not in the main text section. Thanks for you critical eye. CRwikiCA talk 17:37, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- EXCELLENT. Make a notation about the population, when possible. As to the government web site, that can be very good as when you ref the cite 100% certain to note the author of the web site as well as the last time it was updated. OR, try to find a pdf of it. As to special municipalities, try to add some more flesh to that, and by all means, yes, state the population stats are difficult, Try a local library, online population stats etc etc before saying, cant find it. FORGOT to ask, did this article get a peer review?Coal town guy (talk) 17:41, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Link for Constitution dated 2008, in English. Hey there this should be it. It provides the user a link to download the Netherlands Constitution in English. Its dated 2008, and is on the Netherlands Government web site.Coal town guy (talk) 17:51, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks, I included the English language link to the constitution reference. To answer your question, the article was not peer reviewed. Population stats can be difficult, although a lot of the Dutch stats are available online, one of the issues with the stats for the special municipalities is that the responsibility for those shifted when those were instated. Exactly what kind of additional information about the special municipalities would you like to see added? A lot of the government websites do not actually specify an author and in some cases not even an update date, but I will go through them and see what I can add for each reference. CRwikiCA talk 18:01, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Personally, I like the list as is, BUT, since I have gone through the FL list procedure before I am trying to anticipate what others will want as well. As to special municipalities, the best thing might be to say what makes them special per the Constitution. I will contact a fwew other editors to see what their feedback would be as well. The list you have is ambitious, and with a bit more fleshing to the municipalities, is a good one, certainly educationalCoal town guy (talk) 18:24, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The constitution does not describe the special municipalities, I checked the text to confirm this. They were instituted with the cited Act in 2010, which regulates their function, role and other things mentioned in the article. Because they are not enshrined in the constitution, their legal status might be a bit different, but I do not know to which detail the legal technicalities should be discussed in the article.

I am nominating this for featured list because I know it's ready. This is the third instalment in my mission to take on the Citra Awards (patently ignoring the yet to be created List of actors of the Dutch East Indies and related projects...) and it's turned out fairly nice. I hope you enjoy looking it over as much as I enjoyed writing it. Key redlinks, particularly Sukarno M. Noor, Zainal Abidin and Tio Pakusadewo, are projects for the upcoming weeks. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:38, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi all, switching back again from obscure scifi award lists to obscure video game lists. Having learned my lesson from my recent FLC that crossed the obscurity line, this list, though it does include numerous Japanese-only games, does include a few million-copy sellers. The Mystery Dungeon series is a set of roguelikes broken into roughly five groups and generally involving non-original characters, but is unified by their gameplay elements (and names) into a distinct set. The tables are taken from previous FLs and meet ACCESS requirements, and I think everything should be good to go. Thanks for reviewing! --PresN 21:06, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because... I've spent a long time inputting all the songs that Emeli Sandé has written. I believe it demonstrates how she not only writes material for herself, but also for others as a featured artist and for other artists in general. It shows how Emeli Sandé is a true singer-songwriter and she has written just as many songs for others as she has herself. I believe it meets the criteria, and I have drawn upon ideas and constructive criticisms from previous FLCs of mine in order to create this list. Hopefully on tweaks will be needed to be made to the list :-) lol — AARON • TALK 17:26, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Oh wow thank you :) — AARON • TALK 20:52, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose, on the basis that according to to BMI Repertoire, Sandé has written at least 94 songs here. Just this week it was revealed Sandé has written "Side Effects of You", the title song from Fantasia Burrino's fifth album here. This article is in no way complete or comprehensive. Its just a list of songs that have made artist's albums and credit Sandé as a writer. Whilst I think there probably rational for the article, FLs are supposed to represent the best and most complete of articles. Promoting this to FL would detract from the whole point/purpose of FLs - to be the best of the list-type articles. (Sorry Aaron!) — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 14:07, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I searched for her on BMI and it returned nothing. So I don't know what you did to find those, because I didn't know about them. — AARON • TALK 14:46, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- BMI Repertoire uses the standard surname chronological order. Hence if you search SANDE EMELI under songwriter it pulls up all those results. It feels wrong to promote a list to FL on the basis its about an artist's songwriting contributions, yet the only songs included are ones already released and the material from the introduction seems re-hashed from other articles. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 16:52, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cad, bounder, rotter and an absolute shower! Terry-Thomas was one of the most popular and best-known comedians in post-war Britain. A broad and rich career on stage, television and radio, he exported his portrayal of the silly-ass Englishman from British films such as Private's Progress, Carlton-Browne of the F.O. and I'm All Right Jack to Hollywood, where he depicted an upper-class English twit in a number of films, including It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World and How to Murder Your Wife. This record of his professional work has recently been split away from the main T-T page as it was out of place there and not a full reflection of his work. Aside from that, we are now nominating this for featured list status because we believe that it now satisfies the criteria.

I am nominating this for featured list because I've been creating dozens of player articles to get the redlink count down (down to about 12 five now, so we're getting there) and staring at the list itself for weeks trying to spot all the deliberate mistakes, and it'd be a dreadful waste of time if I didn't nominate it. This is part one of the Lincoln City F.C. complete player list project (part two might well follow, not convinced part three ever will) split at 100+ appearances as per standard procedure with English football clubs with many hundreds of former players. All constructive criticism gratefully received... Struway2 (talk) 08:59, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. Can the flag for Lee Frecklington be changed to match the one for Peter Gain? I'm not sure how or when, but some flags have a blue border depending on which template is used. Rather annoying. Most seem to have been corrected now atleast. Walls of Jericho (talk) 16:50, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Are you sure they're different? They do use different templates: Gain uses {{fbu}} for the automatic U21 wording, while Frecklington uses {{flagicon}} with manually added wording. But I've just tried putting the flagicon one next to the fbu and magnifying them up to enormous, and they both seem to have a border and (to me) look exactly the same. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 18:06, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- That's bizarre. When I magnified my screen the blue border for Frecklington changed to grey, like the rest. When I put it back to normal it was blue again.

- For an article of this length the introduction seems a bit short. Perhaps add information about the most awarded actresses or its broadcast history?
- Ref 1 is a dead link. Please find another reliable source.
- Ref 2 → Please add the author (Connie Passalacqua) to the reference.
- Using IMDb as a reference is debatable. I really don't see it as a reliable source (see Wikipedia:Citing IMDb).
- Is there a publisher for Soapcentral.com? How reliable is it?
- Ref 50 → Yahoo! Voices redirects to Associated Content. Add Yahoo, Inc. as the publisher.
- Ref 60 → OnTheRedCarpet redirects to On The Red Carpet.
- Ref 68 needs publisher information.

Support All the major issues have been addressed. Although, in the "Multiple Wins/Nominations" sections, we link to the actresses' articles, even though they've already been linked to in the main table. Is this necessary? I think linking once is enough, and seems like a WP:REPEATLINK to me.Caringtype1 (talk) 20:03, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comments Shouldn't somewhere we link to to daytime drama, to specify what is meant by drama series? Also there is a lot of ref repetition is the lead paragraphs. The 2007 nominees could also use an additional reference.Caringtype1 (talk) 02:33, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because it is part of the Latin Grammy WikiProject and I will working on all the articles included in the "winners" section as I usually do with the lists, but I think this one could be reviewed in its current form, I will be watching closely your comments. Thanks. Jaespinoza (talk) 00:33, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: This list is comparable to other Grammy-related lists that have been promoted to FL status. In terms of format and style, I would support the promotion of this list, assuming all other concerns by other reviewers are also addressed. I made a few minor edits to the list, and also created a stub for Brazilian Dreams. Though not required, you might consider starting articles in order to eliminate other red links. (Just a thought, not a request.) Great job! --Another Believer (Talk) 18:02, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for the input and your support AB.

- Nominator(s): Peter I. Vardy (talk) 15:30, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I am nominating this for featured list because it contains the major works produced by a provincial but important architectural practice in Lancaster, England, between 1845 and 1866, the period of time that it was known as Sharpe and Paley. The practice had been founded in 1835 and continued until 1946. This list provides a comprehensive account of its output during this period in its history. Peter I. Vardy (talk) 15:30, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Accessibility: All of the images have sensible alt text. The main table has its row and column headers identified and marked up with proper scopes, so the table is as accessible as we can make it for different screen readers. The key table only has headers marked up, but is so small that it should not cause anyone a problem.
- The colours used in the key all have contrast ratios greater than 12 against black text, so exceed WCAG AAA standards and the colours are not used to convey information unavailable by other means. My only quibble is that the key uses the words "Grade II*" for example, while the corresponding entry in the main table uses just "II*" - I'd have used "II*" in the key for consistency, particularly as a screen reader could read the word "Grade" from the column header in the key table. But that is really nit-picking as Peter I. Vardy has obviously put a lot of effort into meeting our accessibility standards. Well done!
- The subject is well beyond my expertise, but the list is attractive, the lead is engaging and grammatically very tidy, and the content is copiously and accurately referenced (a nod to Malleus' fine work there). From all that I see, this is an example of our finest content and I have no hesitation in offering my Support. --RexxS (talk) 19:06, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That pile of references in the lead should be migrated to the proper place in the table, with excess examples trimmed. Otherwise this looks good. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:04, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Done --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 14:17, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Support - Still a little worried that the number of examples in the lead is excessive, but I don't think it's something to oppose over. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:48, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support I've had another look over this list, and it meets the criteria by my reckoning. I just have a few final comments:
- "Better Luck" is still named "Better Luck Next Time" in the lead.
- "songs recorded prior to the release of the band's debut album" -> "songs recorded by the band prior to the release of their debut album" reads better to me.
- Stick an "All songs credited to Scissor Sisters, except where noted." note at the top of section.
