It's been over a year since the last nom, wherein there were no major issues brought up, it just died due to lack of interest. Hoping there's more interest now. Golbez (talk) 16:09, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

;Comments from Jmnbqb Number of governors in the lead needs to be updated to 46 There's no space in the infobox between the salary and year Note A should be placed after punctuation Above three done. Tables can be made to be sortable They can, but in this case, with the complex nature of the Lt Gov column, I'm not sure it would work well? ... ok so I tried it and I'm impressed at its ability to handle rowspans. Done! Why have Note L when you place the party of each lieutenant governor anyways? Accessibility; we can't convey information purely through color. Gotcha. The Living former governors section doesn't have any references Does it need any? Do we ever need to reference that a person is still alive? And if we're referencing their deaths, ... I mean, we have their articles, that do such a better job of handling that. (Also, I'd be 150% fine with removing this section, I don't see the point of it) I agree that removing it is probably for the best. It would also require a lot of constant updating (which like you said can just be accessed from their individual wiki pages). Yay, removed, I can blame you when someone complains :> --Golbez (talk) 17:36, 13 March 2018 (UTC) Reference 31 needs to be reformatted (also needs an ISBN) I think I've fixed what you want? Though it doesn't appear to have an ISBN. Yep looks better. Reference 51 needs to be reformatted Fixed, though the AR Supreme Court's site appears to be down at the moment. Reference 52 needs to be reformatted (also needs an ISBN) See 31. Reference 53 needs an ISBN Done. Date is wrong in Reference 59 Wow, nice catch. Done. Good job! If you get a chance, I would appreciate a review on one of my listed FLCs. Jmnbqb (talk) 14:38, 13 March 2018 (UTC) Thanks for the review! And I'll check them out. --Golbez (talk) 17:16, 13 March 2018 (UTC)

Resolved comments from The Rambling Man (talk) 10:12, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

Comments "Arkansas's state government " piped to a redirect. "totaling 56 distinct terms." I don't really follow this terminology, but the table appears to have 46 numbered governors and 11 un-numbered governors. Fixed; updated unnumbered, removed 'distinct terms', people can math if they need to. "served only three days, the shortest term overall." care to note why it was so very short? Added short explainer. "Governors of the Territory of Arkansas" first para appears to be unreferenced. Don't use "hash" to represent No. What should I use? "No."? Not that I necessarily disagree, but how is that necessarily better than "#"? --Golbez (talk) 15:17, 28 March 2018 (UTC) See MOS:HASH. The Rambling Man (talk) 15:37, 28 March 2018 (UTC) Fair enough. :) Done. --Golbez (talk) 17:02, 28 March 2018 (UTC) John Pope is piped to a redirect. As is " admitted to the Union". First para of "Governors of the State of Arkansas" is also unreferenced. "state constitution" is piped to a redirect. Linkable items should be linked every time in sortable tables (i.e. Republican and Democrat need to be linked each time). Samuel Adams and James M. Johnson are piped to a redirect. Put em-dashe in blank image cells. File:BenjaminTravisLaney.png needs to go, no fair use rationale for inclusion here. (Not directly related, but the "African-Americans - Cities - Politics" hyphens here should be en-dashes) Ref 3 needs an en-dash in the year range. Tables should include row and col scopes for MOS:ACCESS. The Rambling Man (talk) 14:13, 27 March 2018 (UTC) All of the above is dealt with except for "No.", and any additional comments are above. --Golbez (talk) 18:43, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
