Nominator(s): RunningTiger123 (talk) — Bilorv (talk) 05:50, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A cult favorite, Community is a meta-love letter to television and film, exploring and using tropes while also examining them. The show has had a huge and dedicated fandom since its release in 2009, but with its recent re-emergence on Netflix and some public cast get-togethers, it's gaining a fair bit more traction. The show was critically acclaimed but never huge in mainstream awards. I'm co-nominating this list with RunningTiger123, who has done most of the work on creating and expanding the list, which surprisingly didn't exist until April and has been long overdue for years. — Bilorv (talk) 05:50, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments on the lead
Comments on the table
  • People's names should sort based on surname. Currently they sort on forename.
  • That's it :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:07, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I made one little tweak to the notes which was easier to just do than to list here, and am now happy to support -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:29, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
  • Add caption for the lead image
  • Add a better ALT text
  • For now, I'm going to leave it as is because it more closely aligns with the linked articles' descriptions. RunningTiger123 (talk) 17:24, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • gaining a cult following → more sources
  • Add sources at the end of a sentence. This makes it easier for the reader to find sources they are looking for rather than searching around.
  • What are the characters the actors play? Maybe introduce them in lead
  • I've been thinking and reckon it's good to list the characters' common name in brackets after the actor—added for now but let me know if you disagree. — Bilorv (Black Lives Matter) 17:39, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Archive sources
  • I'm going to ping Bilorv on this one, since he did the archiving for most of the sources already. RunningTiger123 (talk) 17:24, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Add a better short description
  • Add a better title to the list. Maybe 'Awards and nominations'
  • For clarification, do you think this should be used or the full title like you have in the sronly template below? RunningTiger123 (talk) 17:24, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why do nominees(s) have a break? eg.
Steven Sprung and Peter B. Ellis
(for "A Fistful of Paintballs")
  • |+ Awards and nominations received by Community → |+ Awards and nominations received by ''Community'' {{sronly|Awards and nominations received by ''Community''}}
  • Done. RunningTiger123 (talk) 17:24, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • That's it from me. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 11:43, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Support — Nice work! ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 14:02, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • @CAPTAIN MEDUSA:: I know you already gave support, but I wanted to follow up on one point you made. You suggested changing the table title to use the {{sronly}} template, but that makes the title in plain text redundant. However, other featured lists seem to just use the title with no need for {{sronly}}. Do you think we should hide the title and use the template or just write out the title for the table so that it's visible? RunningTiger123 (talk) 16:29, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • It helps people with a screen reader. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 15:22, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
          • So are both the plain text and the template needed, or just the template? RunningTiger123 (talk) 16:34, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
            • My understanding is that {{sronly|text here}} appears exactly the same to a screen reader user as text here, but doesn't display at all to a visual reader—this is what the documentation says. So the point is surely to use {{sronly}} but not have the same text in plaintext, otherwise a screenreader user hears it read out twice in succession, and the sighted user still sees the redundant table title. — Bilorv (Black Lives Matter) 17:01, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
            • @CAPTAIN MEDUSA: is this your understanding too? — Bilorv (Black Lives Matter) 13:56, 25 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
              • @Bilorv and RunningTiger123: This might answer your question.

                Since FLC mandates that nominations follow ACCESS, this means that they'll need to start having captions. In the case that the table is the first thing in a section where the section header is essentially the same as what the caption would be, and therefore looks duplicative visually, you can make the caption screen reader-only with the template, e.g. "|+ {{sronly|Example table caption}}" instead of "|+ Example table caption".
