I am nominating this for featured list because I think it meets the FL criteria. Looking forward to lots of feedback on this.Krish | Talk 20:21, 24 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Aoba47
  • I think “upto” would read between if separate into two words “up to”. This is more a stylistic choice, but I am more familiar with it being two separate words.
  • There should not be a comma after the phrase “who also serves as an executive producer”.
  • The sentence about who directed the pilot episode seems oddly specific for the lead and I wold suggest removing it unless this fact is extremely notable for some reason.
  • I would combine the first and second paragraphs of the lead as the first paragraph is rather short, especially if you remove the final sentence from the first paragraph.
  • I am not sure of the value of the link for “New Agent Trainees” as it leads directly to the FBI Academy article and does not appear to provide much context to the term. The term is already defined in the text as “young FBI recruits”, and that seems like enough of a definition without the link. It also seems rather redundant as the FBI Academy is linked later in the paragraph.
  • The second sentence of the second paragraph is rather long and I would recommend breaking it up into two sentence as it is covering a lot of content.
  • The phrase “revealing various detail about their previous lives and later switched to one timeline” reads somewhat awkwardly to me. Maybe if you made the part about the timelines switching into its own sentence and giving it more context, or just revising this sentence to have it flow better.
  • There should be a comma after “while for the second season”.
  • I would say “the production moved to New York for its second season”. The word “for” seems more appropriate than “in”.
  • Do you think it would be beneficial to add some information on the awards and nominations for the show in the lead?
  • This does not need to be done for the FLC, but it may be helpful to make a separate template for the television show as there are several articles that would make one appropriate (this list, the main article, the lists/articles on the first two seasons, the future list/article on the third season when that does get made, and the article on Alex Parrish). Again, this is just a suggestion and does not need to be done for the FLC. Just wanted to note this.

Wonderful work with this list. Once my comments are addressed, I will support this. Good luck with getting this promoted. Aoba47 (talk) 03:55, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Aoba47: Done. Actually there was a template, which was recently deleted.Krish | Talk 05:00, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you for addressing my comments; after looking through the argument to delete the template, it makes sense to me now. I will support this; good luck with getting this promoted. Remember to keep this updated when new episodes come out in the future. Aoba47 (talk) 16:54, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from Yashthepunisher
  • Remove "the brightest of her class", it's not neutrally worded and looks unnecessary.
  • CIA cryptonyms --> CIA cryptonym
  • "Quantico's first season episodes was primarily shot in.." It should be "were" instead of "was".
  • Link Montreal
  • Movie Pilot --> Moviepilot
  • TV Line --> TVLine

  • Support – Did some minor formatting changes but overall a very tight and compact list. Hope that if this gets promoted, the upcoming seasons are updated equally. —IB [ Poke ] 10:04, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Source review

All sources appear to be reliable and are archived in case we lose the original. I'll pass this source review for this list. Aoba47 (talk) 17:28, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support – Removed info about awards [2]; apart from that everything looks very good. It's quite early to have this nominated for FL but hopefully the article will be properly updated when new episodes air. Once a third season article page is created, I would suggest recreating the template. - Brojam (talk) 04:19, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question – What, if anything, is meant to be sourcing the episode titles, directors, and writers? It looks like the TV by the Numbers refs only cover episode dates and TV ratings, not any of the other information. Giants2008 (Talk) 21:05, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Giants2008: This is how all the FLs are structured here.Krish | Talk 13:33, 17 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose that one might say that MOS:PLOT covers these details, but since I'm unsure (we haven't had a ton of episodes FLCs recently), I'm going to ask for extra input on FLC talk. Hope this is all right with you. Giants2008 (Talk) 01:21, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Giants2008: I don't know why all of these kind of dramas have to be associated with my nominations. My another nomination has plenty of supports, still taking million years to pass and now this. FYI, I am planning to leave this site after Monday for a whole year and I don't have time for a discussion. I think I can cite episodes to resolve your concerns but please check out my other nomination.Krish | Talk 20:14, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Krish!: I'm not trying to cause any drama, for you or anyone else. I'm just doing spot-checks to make sure that the sourcing in FLs is being done properly. There aren't a lot of editors interested in doing this work, but it's important for the reputation of the project. If the community decides that this is an issue, it may have to be brought up in future FLCs as well; if it isn't, they will tell me that and I will strike my comment accordingly. The FLC talk discussion is here, in case you want to leave a comment before going on your break. Also, I responded to you at the Blanchett FLC with an update. Please enjoy the break and take care. Giants2008 (Talk) 21:24, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Giants2008: I think this edit should address your sourcing issue. - Brojam (talk) 15:51, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I like the idea. Let me mention it at FLC talk and see if that satisfies those who wanted cites. Giants2008 (Talk) 01:12, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
One of the delegates expressed their satisfaction with the edit, so I'm going to go ahead and promote this in a moment. Giants2008 (Talk) 23:10, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
