Now that my Barrett list has been promoted and my Beastie Boys FLC has no current outstanding comments and one support, I think I'm safe to nominate this one. I created this list in late November and have solely brought it to where it is now. I was surprised to see that Daft Punk didn't have a song list, as they are incredibly influential and extremely recognizable. I think this list meets the FLC criteria and is quality enough to become featured. All comments and concerns are appreciated. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 20:02, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Source review
  • Why have you mentioned the ISSN number in the second reference?
  • Ref 3 is missing the publisher's name, also is doesn't seem to qualify WP:RS.
    • Replaced it.
  • Pitchfork shouldn't be in italics.
    • Pitchfork as a website goes in italics; the publisher Pitchfork Media does not go in italics.
  • cartoonnetwork.com --> Cartoon Network
  • Mention Amazon only once.
  • These two links should be archived.

The rest seems fine. Yashthepunisher (talk) 16:33, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yashthepunisher All fixed; couple comments above. Thanks very much. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 21:48, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

;Comments from Hameltion
  • Daft Punk is or are?
  • Is
  • Why is the bibliography there?
  • No clue moved it
  • Duo could be replaced with band at least once
  • Used synonyms like "group" and "band"

This is pretty solid. I've additionally made made these tweaks which are hopefully all good. --Hameltion (talk, contribs) 03:51, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hameltion Thanks very much for your comments! Made some additional ones above. And thanks for your edit! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 16:33, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Daft Punk is still referred to as plural a few times. --Hameltion (talk, contribs) 16:36, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hameltion Should be good now. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 21:31, 26 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
  • "the French house and dance genres of" I would reverse this, simply as this could be misconstrued as "French dance" and DP's influence far transcended the French genres.
  • "Its next album" reads really odd to me. Maybe "The band's next album" or something that isn't simply "its".
  • "continued Daft Punk's array of success." reads like a fan review.
  • Items in the table which are linked should be linked each time as the table is sortable.
  • I personally don't like having an overabundance of links but I see your point. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 16:20, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Any chance of linking from this page to the Daft Punk discography, and vice versa?
  • Table caption doesn't need a full stop.
  • "Indo Silver Club" shows as 1996 in the discog FL and 1997 here, why the discrepancy?
  • "Revolution 909" as well, slightly different. I think what we're seeing is that you're using the release date of the album, not the singles themselves, right?
  • Yeah "Indo Silver Club" was released as a single in early 1996 but was again released on Homework the following year. Same with "Revolution 909". I only write "single" if the song is a non-album single that doesn't appear on an album. If a song does appear on an album I just use the album's release year.

Otherwise looks good. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:33, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Rambling Man Thanks so much for your comments! Should be all good. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 16:20, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by Dudley[edit]

  • "After beginning in 1992 as the band Darlin' with Laurent Brancowitz,[2] the group disbanded". This does not sound right to me as it seems to say that Daft Punk started as Darlin'. Maybe "The duo started as Darlin' with Laurent Brancowitz in 1992, but the group disbanded in [date]"
    • Done.
  • "The band's next album, the concept album". Repetition of "album" Maybe "Next was the concept album">
    • Done.
  • "Since 2013, the duo has collaborated with multiple artists, such as Jay-Z and the Weeknd, being a featured artist on the latter's songs". I am not clear what you are saying here. Who was the featured artist. If the duo, can they be a featured artist, and if Jay-Z, what was it to do with the duo?
    • Daft Punk was the featured artist on two songs by the Weeknd, one being "Starboy" (featuring Daft Punk). And basically, Daft Punk and Jay-Z collaborated on an unreleased song called "Computerized" when they were recording Tron: Legacy. I added it to the table.
  • You might leave out Jay-Z from the lead as "being a featured artist" might be taken to refer to him, and they only collaborated on an unreleased song. Dudley Miles (talk) 16:19, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Looks good but I think the lead still needs a bit of work. Dudley Miles (talk) 14:53, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dudley Miles All done. Thanks so much for your comments! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 15:55, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Giants2008 PresN There's now three supports and a source review done. Is this one all good now? BeatlesLedTV (talk) 21:35, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
  • "alt=Daft Punk at the premiere of Tron: Legacy in 2010" - don't use the apostrophes here.
  • "the duo has been extremely influential" - I think this point can be made just as well without the weasel word extremely.
  • "Their next single, "Da Funk", was its first commercial success" - its or their?
  • "After the success of "Da Funk", Daft Punk released its first studio album Homework in 1997." Same as above
  • "Next was the concept album Discovery, was released in 2001." Remove the second was.
  • "The album received mixed reviews, with critics mainly focusing on the album's repetitive and minimalist nature" - with + noun + verb+ing is best avoided at FLs.
  • One general criticism: I think the list is a little single-centric. It needs to mention non-singles (I currently count none); this isn't supposed to be a singles discography. FrB.TG (talk) 21:16, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • FrB.TG All done. I mentioned some non-singles in the lead; if you think there should be more just say so. Thanks very much for the comments! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 17:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Much better now. FrB.TG (talk) 18:44, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
