This is a list of awards and nominations received by the 2011 crime movie Drive. It's a real shame that no one even bothered to work on this list before. I am nominating this for featured list because I believe I have met the comprehensiveness criteria by gathering all the awards there is to this movie, as well as summarizing to the readers significant details of the accolades through the prose. This is the first film accolades list I've worked on, so hopefully this goes well. Bluesphere 05:30, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Large bolded font atop infobox looks clumsy to me.  Done
  • Only one para of the lead deals with awards and noms, I would consider expanding it by a para.  Done
  • "Dallas-Fort Worth" needs an en-dash, not a hyphen.  Done
  • "Dublin Film Critics Circle" missing an apostrophe.  Done
  • You pipe "Academy Awards" to "Academy Award" which redirects to "Academy Awards"...  Done
  • Same for Satellite Awards.  Done
  • Few other piped redirects in there, e.g. London Film Critics categories.  Done
  • Notes aren't referenced.  Done

  • "He suddenly grows fond of his neighbor, (played by Carey Mulligan) and her young son" I'm not 100% sure but is that comma really necessary? And if it is, shouldn't it come after the bracketed text?
  •  There's no "bracketed" text, did you mean the "parentheses"? Either way, I just removed the commas on account of being totally unnecessary.
  • "Carey Mulligan won the Supporting Actress Award by the Hollywood Film Awards twice, alongside her performance in Shame." I don't completely understand this sentence. Did she win one award for two roles or did she win the award on two different occasions?
  •  Rephrased sentence for clarity.
  • "The National Board of Review selected Drive on their Top Ten Films of the year." on → as one of
     Done
  • Some entries in the category column have "award" at the end, but most of them don't. I think you should remove the "award" since it's obvious what they are and the first column already contains that.
    I don't think so. While I completely understand where you're coming from, I just left the link by how they are titled in their respective articles. Besides it's awkward-sounding to be calling, for instance, the Academy Award as simply "Academy" since nobody calls this particular award by that name. However, I removed the "award" to African-American Film Critics Association since that's how it's titled on its article.
    No, I mean the category column, not the award column. For example, for the awards given by the Alliance of Women Film Journalists, you list Best Actor in a Supporting Role, Movie You Wanted To Love But Just Couldn’t and Unforgettable Moment Award. Only the last once has "award" at the end, I think that should be removed. And there are a few other entries like that. Littlecarmen (talk) 09:57, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • You only need to link publications/organisations etc. once in the references.
     Done
  • Other than that, this list looks great, good job! Littlecarmen (talk) 16:09, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Littlecarmen, I appreciate it. Let me know if there's anything else that is bothersome to you. Bluesphere 05:31, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support – Great job on this list! I also currently have an FLC nomination going here and I'd appreciate it if you could take a look at it. Littlecarmen (talk) 12:29, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is it necessary to say "adapted screenplay"? Couldn't you say instead "Refn and written by Hossein Amini".
  •  Done
  • Wouldn't it be better to replace "United States' theaters" with "American theaters"?
  •  Done
  • "Brooks won [...] at the Florida Film Critics Awards and was nominated in the same category at the 69th Golden Globe Awards".
  •  While I changed the wording of the Golden Globe clause, I would leave the current wording of the Florida Film Critics clause as is, since it would have been the appropriate one for the link I provide; there's no article about the organization's 2011 awarding ceremony I could apply the wording you requested.
  • Again, "Mulligan won at the Hollywood Film Awards".
  •  Done

Those are the only problems I found with the lead section. The awards all seem to be in order and placed alphabetically. Unfortunately I currently lack the mental stamina to perform a source review. However, if they check out and my above comments are adressed I believe I could support the nomination. PanagiotisZois (talk) 21:25, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

PanagiotisZois, I believe I've addressed the concerns you raised. Bluesphere 03:58, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Bluesphere: Alrighty then. The lead section is very informative, thorough and on the point. The mistakes have been fixed, the list is in alphabetical order, are dated and referenced. As stated, the references need to be checked by someone but besides that, I definately support this nomination.

P.S.: Regarding the Florida Film Critics Circle, I think I made a mistake and wrote Critics Awards instead of Circle up there. So don't worry about it. PanagiotisZois (talk) 19:52, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Aoba47
  • For the following sentence (Bryan Cranston, Christina Hendricks, Ron Perlman, and Albert Brooks feature in supporting roles), I would say "are featured" rather than "feature".

Great work with this list. I honestly could not find much to comment on for this list as it is already very good and has appeared to received pretty extensive commentary from the users above me. Once my rather minor note is addressed, I will support this. Hope you are having a wonderful day so far. Aoba47 (talk) 15:51, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Likewise, Aoba47! :)
  • Thank you for addressing my comment. I support this. Good luck with getting it promoted. Aoba47 (talk) 16:01, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comments –

  • The comma in "as an unnamed, Hollywood stunt driver moonlighting as a getaway driver" should probably be removed.
  • The table shows three wins from the Austin Film Critics Association, while the infobox shows four. Are you counting the second place finish as a win? Maybe that's why I'm counting 30 wins and 79 noms, not the 31 wins and 78 noms from the infobox. Giants2008 (Talk) 22:19, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Now the infobox has the 30 wins, but still has 78 noms and doesn't seem to be counting the second place finish at all. Was this the intention? Giants2008 (Talk) 21:08, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Giants2008: Not exactly. I thought you didn't want it placed either as a win or nom. Alright, the total noms are now at 79 now that I counted the second place as a nom. Slightlymad (talk) 04:55, 24 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Source Review: Only some small points. --PresN 18:40, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • If the publisher's name is basically the same as the work, it shouldn't be included- {{Cite web}}'s canonical example is The New York Times (Company), which you do in ref 1, and for other newspapers elsewhere
  • You skipped the link to the LA Times in ref 24
  • You're inconsistent in how you handle the official websites of awards organizations- e.g. in ref 43 you make "worldsoundtrackacademy.com" the work and World Soundtrack Academy the publisher, which not only violates the work-similar-to-publisher rule, but is also inconsistent with e.g. ref 36, where the San Diego Film Critics Society's page isn't called out as "work=sdfcs.org". The standard and consistent way to do it is not to set a "work" field for the website name.
  • Souce review passed, promoting. --PresN 12:00, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
