I am nominating this for featured list because it meets the criteria and I did all the corrections necessary. --Leo Mercury (talk) 10:05, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
  • Wikilink drag queen - I don't think we can assume that every reader will know what this means
  • "RuPaul's Drag Race and its various spin-off" - missing S on the end
  • "The series was met with critical acclaim" - which series? The last sentence mentioned four different (albeit related) series
  • "(becoming the person with the most wins in the category of Outstanding Host for a Competition Program)" => I would say "making him the person with the most wins in the category of Outstanding Host for a Competition Program" (and lose the brackets)
  • "He was nominated for a BAFTA TV Award for the first season of Drag Race UK." - was he nominated, or was the show nominated?
  • "the release of his debut single, "Supermodel (You Better Work)"" - it was not his debut single according to the song's article
  • Many of the awards in the table were presented to shows rather then to RuPaul himself. In some cases the award was to one or more named people, including him (eg the Producers Guild Award was given jointly to RuPaul, Fenton Bailey, Randy Barbato, Tom Campbell, Mandy Salangsang, and Steven Corfe). When RuPaul was named a joint winner with other people, that should be noted. When an award was made simply to the show and RuPaul was not specifically named as a winner, I think it's debatable whether it should be listed here at all. I'll see what other editors think on this point.
  • Refs look OK, but the title of the Logo TV one should not be shown in all caps.
  • Think that's it from me -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:50, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Done. I think we can leave all the awards received by the show on his page because as a creator, host and producer of the series I think it is safe to assume that he is the main recipient of most of them, but I would like to know what the other editors think about this matter. --Leo Mercury (talk) 09:07, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • I'm cool with seeking a wider view. I'll check back here later but in the meantime I will sashay away :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:58, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • It's a fair point, and not dissimilar to one I made at the Brad Pitt awards FLC on this page where a film he was in won an Oscar and the list claimed Pitt himself had won two Oscars, that one, and one for his personal achievement. I'll take a look at this list in due course, but I'm tending to side with Chris on this... The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 10:35, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Is there not an article for the GLAAD Media Awards which occurred in 1999?
  • I would wiki link every show, because if you sort it, it’s hard to find the specific link.

Nice job overall. ~ HAL333 12:22, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Source review - Pass edit

Doing now Aza24 (talk) 00:06, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Refs missing authors: 7, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, 20, 21, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32 and 33
  • Ref 25 missing author and date
  • Would link to see all the publishers linked rather than just some. I went ahead and linked most, double check that I got them all
  • Why is 21 MTV news instead of just MTV?
  • Why is Entertainment Weekly cited as a maganazene in refs 12 and 14 but not in 15?
  • reliability looks fine Aza24 (talk) 00:33, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from GagaNutella
  • Put all awards on infobox
  • Wikilink everything you can on the Category column
  • I recommend put work and then category (I see most articles are like this)
  • Compact ToC isn't working
  • All notes are missing "."
  • Ref: 6: delete bafta.org. 16, 17, 19: Change GLAAD.org. to Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (as publisher). 28: change Emmys.com to Emmy Awards.

I will run AutoEd to clean up the article. GagaNutellatalk 19:35, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ChrisTheDude and GagaNutella, sorry for pinging, but since this is now one of the oldest candidates, I want to make sure to receive your support or opposition for this nomination so that we can finally close it. --Leo Mercury (talk) 21:23, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Apologies, I totally forgot about this one. Thinking about it, I guess I am OK with the awards given generically to the show appearing here given how intrinsically linked to the show RuPaul is. It's not like if Coronation Street won an award for best TV show and someone attempted to include it as an award for every single cast member. SO I guess I am OK to support -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:39, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry! I support! GagaNutellatalk 17:27, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
