Nominator(s): Yarnalgo talk to me 19:30, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because... it is a complete list of all the inductees and I believe it meets the criteria. Yarnalgo talk to me 19:30, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose As a list of notable people shd not be a collection of redlinks. Sandman888 (talk) 10:00, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Per the use of a non-free image which doesn't seem to meet criteria 8:
    • "Contextual significance. Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." I hardly see that fulfilled.
Your right, removed. --Yarnalgo talk to me 18:33, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lead cd go into greater detail on the selection proces.
Done. I've tried to add more to the lead. --Yarnalgo talk to me 18:33, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:SALAT, a list of people who are all notable themselves is an appropriate topic for a stand-alone list. --Yarnalgo talk to me 18:33, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • The selection proces, it's not great prose but too list-like. Cd you do something? Sandman888 (talk) 21:56, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comments –

  • Nomination and induction process: "and return ballot to the Nomination Committees." Missing "the" after "return"?
Done. --Yarnalgo talk to me 18:09, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • In the table headings, de-capitalize Affiliation in both.
Done. --Yarnalgo talk to me 18:09, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • There are a lot of red links among the inductees. There is a "minimal proportion" of redlinks requirement in the FL criteria. I'm not a big fan of that criterion personally, but have my doubts as to whether the list meets it at the moment. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 17:11, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what can be easily done about this (besides creating a couple hundred articles right now) because they should all be linked because they have all "received a well-known and significant award or honor" which makes them all notable per WP:ANYBIO. I actually was planning on creating the articles for each member after this nomination is over. --Yarnalgo talk to me 18:09, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose for now. Aside from Giants' concern, I don't like the sorting currently. Use template:sortname to make it so there written out normally, yet can be sorted alphabetically. I'll do a full review upon completion of that. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 16:20, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
