I am nominating the 2004 Oscars for featured list because I believe it has great potential to become a Featured List. I read the requirements and criteria. I also followed how the 1929, 2000, 2009, 2010, and 2012 Oscars were written. Birdienest81 (talk) 21:16, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

• I think that the winning film in each category should be in bold, because it's not really clear who the winner is in each category. It would define who the winner was. Obviously a little note would have to go at the top of the table saying winner is highlighted in bold. But apart from that, I can't really fault it. So I'll Support with the assurance that winners will be put in bold.  — AARON • ^TALK 21:44, 31 July 2013 (UTC)

  I disagree, Winners don't need bold, but ideally need a symbol like {{double dagger}} for WP:ACCESS. Therefore, it should remain as it is. Plus, Support! Good job on meeting every single criteria!  — SoapFan12 ^Talk 01:05, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

  I think bold makes it clear, like on 2013 Grammy Awards. A symbol would be good too.  — AARON • ^TALK 09:57, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

  2013 Grammy Awards isn't a FL which isn't a reliable source. However, I do understand where you are coming from.  — SoapFan12 ^Talk 11:25, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

  It doesn't need to be an FL.  — AARON • ^TALK 12:35, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

  Each article about awards ceremonies is different. The Grammys have been structured like this for years (and since a few years ago, it started to include winners and nominees when in the past only winners were listed (e.g. 1965 Grammy Awards). The AA and the GA are different, especially if we consider the GA have many categories and the AA a few (in comparison). Being a FL or not may be relevant to follow or compare its structure, but they shouldn't look similar if there is no reason to be similar. Excepting for Academy Award for Best Actor (and I don't know why), none of the AA articles is bolded, why this is an exception? Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it!

*"...since the 72nd Academy Awards in 2000". I have a problem with this phrase. LAst paragraph you used "the 62nd ceremony held in 1990 and last hosted the 72nd ceremony held in 2000." Perhaps needs rewording. Link Jell-O "On the show itself, he quipped that..." you used "quipped" once, may another verb be used? "the ceremony won one of those nominations for Outstanding Directing for a Variety or Music Program (Louis J. Horvitz)." -> It would be better ro say that Horvitz won it or received it. In ref 10, both "Entertainment Weekly (TimeWarner)" are overlinked In refs 16, 24 the same as above. "He wears a beige and white striped shirt underneath bacl and charcoal striped jacket." What does "bacl" means? "A picture of a man with wavy black-hair". Penn's hair is not black in the image. "A blonde-haired woman is seen sporting...". English is not my first language, so I don't know if "sporting" is synonym of "wearing", because I only find that it means or refers to sports, red-light districts, prostitution or gambling. Steve Johnson and Harold Wheeler go to DAB pages These are some issues I found. Tbhotch.™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 21:47, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

• Fixed: I have fixed everything plus some other grammar/spelling errors (BTW, sporting does mean wearing, but I changed it to avoid further confusion).

Comments - List of presenters and performers: First two words of the section heading could go. In several entries, "Segment" should be decapitalized. Liv Tyler: Capitalize "song". Critical reviews: I don't think another tape delay link is needed here, since there's one in the last section. Ratings and reception: 18-49 needs an en dash to replace the hyphen. In the reference publishers, shouldn't there be a space in TimeWarner? All caps in refs 19 and 37 should be removed.
