Nominator(s): PresN 20:42, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Having learned nothing from all of my previous scifi/fantasy award list nominations, I've come back to you all with another. Here is the Nebula Awards, which are up there with the Hugo Awards for American genre literary prizes. Unlike the Hugos, these are selected by authors, not readers (though about half of the Nebula winners are also Hugo winners, not to mention the nominee overlaps), but like the Hugo lists, this has... basically the same list format! Hooray for consistency- this makes 17 times you've all seen the same table format of books/authors, so... sorry. Thanks for reviewing! --PresN 20:42, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Quick-fail check: The list is close enough to meeting the FL criteria. Quick-failing unnecessary. Goodraise 23:02, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Image review: All used images appear to be free and are properly tagged as such. Goodraise 23:02, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Quick comment the Russian version of this (which is featured) has many images of the authors which has brightened the page up quite a bit. Could you (or would you consider) using some of these here? The Rambling Man (talk) 09:46, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Slower comments

  • "final ballot" used in consecutive sentences is a little clunky.
  • Worth a note saying why there's (currently) no winner in the 2012 listings.
  • No space between Mechanique and the colon.

Quick comment'
  • The table currently fails MOS:DTT you need row and col scope to the table to bring it up to speed. NapHit (talk) 23:34, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Man, that row thing is a huge pain to set up. Done. --PresN 18:59, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Has a straight forward table, well-written, no complaints. Nice work! Ruby 2010/2013 04:47, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support: As stated above, I also have no complaints. Everything is properly sourced, the lead flows perfectly, and the table is nice on the eyes! Great work! — Status {talkcontribs 09:04, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Looks solid to me. The only thing I can see wrong with it is the fact that Slaughterhouse-Five ended up losing to The Left Hand of Darkness, but that's hardly your fault. I hope... GRAPPLE X 01:31, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
