I am nominating this for featured list because I feel that this is a comprehensive list of the known leaders of Alderney. It also consists of a comprehensive background section that gives a breakdown of all the various guises of the leadership. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 09:29, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comments (first round) Comments on List table
- Each date (when only a single year is listed) or pair of dates for the rulers’ reigns should have a reference
- Some of the dates look incomplete when the prior or subsequent date should provide necessary information (e.g., W. Chamberlain II to J. Chamberlain II; J. Chamberlain II to Chamberlain; Colles to Le Febvre, etc.)
- For consistency (I could be wrong on this) I suggest using the full four digits of the year each time.
- What does “acting” for another mean (a note or definition would be helpful)?
- Is the first name of Chamberlain (1630s) known?
- Very little is said about a 200+ year vacancy from 1238 to 1546, but there seem to be two leaders (Eudes and Porteman) during that time. Is it a typo?
- Le Breton (1683–1684) was acting for de Haynes. Who was de Haynes, they are not on the list?
- Under Judges- Jean Gauvain, Thomas Le Cocq, and Nicholas Barbenson are all listed as "acting", but for whom? Do you mean "interim"? The same question goes for the remaining Judges listed as "acting".
- Do you have any interest in making this list sortable (e.g., name, title, dates)? -- Godot13 (talk) 19:54, 9 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- I am busy with work at the moment so I probably won't be able to address these issues until Thursday/Friday. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 10:01, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- @Godot13: I have tried to clean up the list as best I can with the dates available and realistic time periods. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 16:41, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- @The C of E: I see the changes. I have added a few references and tried to cite specific dates when possible. The main references for the list are websites that do not cite their own sources. Ideally, each leader's terms should have it's own citation. There is not a lot of readily available internet material on the topic making this a bit more difficult.-Godot13 (talk) 06:25, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Given the scale of the task ahead and that I won't have the time to do the work that is needed for it soon, I wish to withdraw this nomination and will renominate at a later date when I am able to have the time to fix the issues.
