And here's another one. A bit short, but that's the way it is. Sephiroth BCR (Converse) 04:51, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment
- In the first sentence if the third paragraph, include the 's in the link for the director's name.
- Please explain why there are no submissions for a few years in the table.--Dem393 (talk) 16:47, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I think any added punctuation isn't included, and makes the link look awkward. As for why there are no submissions, countries simply don't have to submit every given year. It isn't unheard of or unusual. It simply means that they didn't have a film they wanted to submit. As a list of the submissions, the list is comprehensive - non-submissions are rarely commented on by third party sources in any case unless there's major controversy.

Comments I'm unconvinced it is FL worthy at the moment with only 6 entries. While it may meet the criteria by being comprehensive, stable, engaging, well written, etc etc, does a list of 6 entries really "exemplify our very best work"? See also the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Featured list candidates/Archive 3#Nominations of lists with small scopes. Meanwhile:
- The opening sentence is in passive voice. Put the date at the end of the sentence instead, so " Macedonia has submitted films for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film since 1994"
- Actually, the opening paragraph is one sentence, so it needs expanding, merging, or splitting into a few sentences
- I'm not convinced the second paragraph is necessary here. If Macedonia didn't submit anything before 1994, what relevance does 1956 have? I understand the need to present some background and history about the award, but not this much. At least remove the 1947-1955 stuff.

- Made the necessary fixes. As to the length of the list, I dunno, I had a six-item list (List of FLCL episodes) previously pass FLC, so I assumed that this was fine, although it's smaller. Sephiroth BCR (Converse) 22:13, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
