Nominator(s): Decodet (talk) 04:55, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because I feel it has the enough potential to become a FL based on my past nominations. I have spent months working on it and finding reliable references. It has been peer reviewed in the past and I had nominated it for FLC some months ago but it didn't get promoted because of the little amount of comments. All the sources are good in my opinion, as well the lead and image (with alt text included). Decodet (talk) 04:55, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support as I did the last time. Mm40 (talk) 11:10, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

*Comment: Right now, the lead feels weak to me. Looking at other recently promoted discographies, this one doesn't seem to measure up. For example, the two live albums are not mentioned in the lead at all. For comparison, Spice Girls discography had a lead nearly 3x as long with similar numbers for studio albums and the like. Lean oppose for now, but there's time to improve. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 22:50, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I will try to do my best and expand the lead. It should be finished in some days or even tomorrow. Thanks for leaving your opinion. Decodet (talk) 17:14, 21 June 2010 (UTC) I think I did my best improving the lead, does it look good right now? Decodet (talk) 00:39, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, looks better. Reading over everything now to see if everything's good. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 02:46, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Quite a few of the UK chart sources could be replaced with this for the singles and albums which charted within the Top 75. Mister sparky (talk) 16:29, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't know about this site. Removed those physical references of some positions and switched for this one. Thanks! Decodet (talk) 17:14, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose
  • Opening sentence doesn't match with infobox (e.g. videos/singles)
Fixed. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge first two paras.
Done. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • " from this album" the album would read more elegantly.
Fixed. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Probably worth linking "Gold certification" appropriately.
Done. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The band's breakthrough album, however, became Riot!." nasty sentence. Perhaps, "The band's breakthrough album came in 20xx with Riot!"?
Fixed. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Upon its release in June 2007, the album peaked at number fifteen " not true. It didn't peak upon its release, it peaked sometime after its release.
You are right. Switched "upon" to "after"
  • "including Platinum certifications in " no need to repeat "certifications" here.
Fixed. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • "United States[5], Australia[6] and Canada[7]" please place references after punctuation where possible.
Fixed. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • "with the recording of two" why not just "recording two"?
Fixed. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • " countries.[5][6][7][4]" numerical order please.
Done. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • lead "Ignorance and the acoustic -> missing a " here.
Fixed. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • "AUS: Platinum [6]" remove space.
Done. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • If "Live in the UK 2008" didn't chart anywhere, how do I know it really existed? Same for the first three singles?
I'm going to find reliable references for them. I found Amazon.uk references, is it reliable enough to be added? Just found out that AllMusic references the singles and the Live album, in the discography part. That reference is in the general references section. Decodet (talk) 23:30, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The Final Riot! is considered a DVD in regards to sales thresholds." according to whom?
According to RIAA and CRIA. They certified the album as a music DVD releases. Decodet (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is the EP release referenced anywhere?
No, I'm going to find a reliable reference. I found a reference, but I'm not sure if it's reliable.
  • En-dashes in the refs please, instead of spaced hyphens, and avoid CAPITALS there too, e.g. ref 38.
Fixed. I didn't understand what you meant with "En-dashes".
Check out WP:DASH. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:52, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I read the article but I couldn't find any reference where the "-" is not being used, could you give me an example of a reference, please? Decodet (talk) 19:13, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, well ref 7, for instance, has a spaced hyphen (-), but WP:DASH says that it should use a spaced en dash (–). Does that make sense? The Rambling Man (talk) 10:09, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If I understood correctly, it's done. I hope it's what you wanted. Decodet (talk) 20:50, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
