Nominator(s): 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 16:25, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Manmohan Singh is an Indian economist, academic, served as 13th PM of India from 2004-2014 and the world describe him "a man of uncommon decency and grace." Had worked thoroughly on this list but due to personal issues wasn't able to nominate it for FL. Although I have sourced the list in well way, looking forward for constructive comments. All suggestions welcome. Thanks in advance. 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 16:25, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
  • Per WP:CHRONO, the lists should be in chronological order (earliest first) not reverse order
  • "Governor of Reserve Bank of India" => "Governor of the Reserve Bank of India"
     Done
  • "He is the only prime minister since Jawaharlal Nehru, to be re-elected after completing a full five-year term" - no reason for the comma after Nehru, also this needs a source
     Done
  • "Singh is also the first and only Sikh to hold the office." - needs a source
     Done
  • "Born on 26 September 1932 in Gah (British India) Singh received" => "Born on 26 September 1932 in Gah (British India), Singh received"
     Done
  • The lead talks in detail about his career but says literally nothing about his awards and honours, which is what the article is actually about. The lead should talk far less about his career and far more about his awards.
  • I at first thought of this but didn't continue because it might turn up filmy article. But it's a valid ask, lead should contain awards and recognition. Will work on it, please allow me a week.--25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 14:26, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • There are unsourced rows in the second table
  • That's what I got on a first pass -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:25, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)
  • The tables need colscopes for all columns (e.g. instead of "!Year" it should be "!scope=col| Year")
  • The tables need rowscopes for the "primary" cell of each row (e.g. instead of "|2014" it should be "!scope=row| 2014"
  • The tables need captions (e.g. where you have "|+" it should either be "|+ State honours" or, since that duplicates the section header, "|+ {{sronly|State honours}}" to make it only show up for screen reader software
  • Ribbon images need alt text
  • Hello. I am actually not so good with table thing. Can you please help me to solve table errors please.--25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 14:26, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment

The article appears to have been split by the nominator from Manmohan Singh in 2018; compare the list at the time to the main article's Honors section at the time. The information also remains duplicated today; compare the list to the relevant section in the main article. Per WP:FLCR #3C, a featured list "does not violate the content-forking guideline" and "does not largely duplicate material from another article". Either this list should not exist (since it duplicates the main article on the subject), or the comparable list in the article needs to be removed. I personally feel the list is just long enough to justify a standalone page, but action is required either way. RunningTiger123 (talk) 18:00, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Actually not possible to include all information like each and every award and recognition in main article, hence this list is created.--25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 14:26, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • What are you talking about? Every item in the standalone list is currently included in the main article. This means the list is being duplicated, and one of the two lists needs to go. RunningTiger123 (talk) 17:47, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I am very sorry, but the prose in the lede feels dry and monotonous compared to other FLs, plus the fact that some MOS problems persist, such as missing commas, word choice, etc., not to mention that this list is derived from the main article (Manmohan Singh) which the FL criteria is against. I see that you have done a good job on other lists, however. Wretchskull (talk) 08:38, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you all for your valuable inputs. Since this list do not fulfil FL criteria, requesting editors close this nomination. --25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 07:33, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
