I am nominating this for featured list because I believe the award nominations and wins that Deadliest Catch has accrued over the years showcases its place in television popular culture. The show continues to draw an audience and bring entertainment to millions. The list also meets criteria. CYAce01 (talk) 01:17, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

*Oppose in current state - this is not in the format expected nowadays for such lists - see List of awards and nominations received by Stranger Things#Awards and nominations for the format required. Also, at less than 700 characters the lead is far too short. It certainly needs to give way more background on what the show is/is about - at the moment there's no context for the photo of a ship in the lead........... -- -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:01, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As the article has been almost completely overhauled I have struck my oppose, but don't have time to do a full re-review right this moment. I will look again when I have more time...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:40, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Zmbro: Done, done, done, and done. CYAce01 (talk) 10:36, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'll retract my oppose since a lot of work has been put into this but I still don't think it's ready yet. I think looking at the recently promoted List of awards and nominations received by Game of Thrones would be helpful:
  • Saying Deadlist Catch under every single nominee is complete overkill. We know what the page is about so we don't need to be reminded of that with everything we read. I suggest ditching those
  • Do keep episode titles since those are important though
  • Ditch the production companies, etc... Basically, anything bulleted in the table that's not an episode title. Complete overkill
@Zmbro: Most of the redundancy is just to list credit where credit is due (and as shown in the sources). E.g.: Say the production company employees made a visit to the Deadliest Catch pages and didn't see their company on the nomination/win lists. The companies/people might see that as an insult. Therefore, I was just writing the credits shown in the sources. The exception was for the Emmy Awards where excessive numbers of individual personnel credits were shown, hence the disclaimer (it seemed that everyone and their pets were listed—clearly not within the scope).

  • All the Deadlist Catch episode: entries can just be shortened to the episode names
  • No refs are archived, which they should be. I'm also positive some of these are missing authors
That's it for now. – zmbro (talk) 04:16, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'll take another look when I get a moment. Thanks for the notes. CYAce01 (talk) 08:31, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@ChrisTheDude: Thanks for the review. All items listed above have been corrected. CYAce01 (talk) 07:32, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comments on the tale
  • People's names should sort based on their surname, not their forename (eg Bruce Hanifan should sort under H, not B)
  • Done
  • Rather than saying (eg) "Editors: Kelly Coskran & Ed Greene" say "Kelly Coskran & Ed Greene (editors)" so that it sorts based on name, not job title (in this case it should of course sort under C)
  • Done

@ChrisTheDude: Good catches. Thank you! CYAce01 (talk) 20:31, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Some thoughts
    • The references need a ton of work to be up to par.
    • New York Festivals World's Best TV & Films isn't a notable award
    • We are Movie Geeks isn't a RS
    • Productionhub isn't a RS

CYAce01 are you going to address the above comments which have been here two months or would you prefer to withdraw the nomination? Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:20, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@The Rambling Man: I'll remove the nomination for now and come back for revisions at a later time. I've started other projects (not all in wikipedia). Thnx for the concern. CYAce01 (talk) 08:57, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
