Peter Dinklage on screen and stage edit

Nominator(s): AffeL (talk) 21:02, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because I think it meets the criteria and all that, and Peter Dinklage is awesome. I look forward to all the constructive comments on how to improve. AffeL (talk) 21:02, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, you have another nomination that is still ongoing, having only been up a week or so, I believe it's against policy to have two nominations at one time. Suggest a procedural close. Mattximus (talk) 17:26, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It says that "Users should not add a second featured list nomination until the first has gained substantial support and reviewers' concerns have been substantially addressed." The first nomination has been up for ten days and has gained support and reviewers. And all concerns has been addressed. AffeL (talk) 18:02, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction

"In the early 2010s, Dinklage became better known." – This line is not necessary.
"In 2011 he played a role in the romantic comedy A Little Bit of Heaven, The following year and since he has played Tyrion Lannister in the HBO series Game of Thrones, earning him international attention and acclaim."- "The link to 'romantic comedy' needs to be fixed so it does not redirect. There should be a period after A Little Bit of Heaven and not a comma. Since the first sentence lists the year 2011 then the opening of the next sentence ("The following year") would indicate 2012, yet in the list Game of Thrones is shown to have started in 2011. This next to be fixed. Suggestion: "That same year he began playing Tyrion Lannister …

Television

The column name of "Channel" should be changed to "Network". ("Channel" is for British usage, whereas "Network" is American and hence more appropriate since all of Dinklage's television work has been in the United States.) Jimknut (talk) 20:33, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Jimknut: Thank you so much for the comments. I have fixed all the things you mentioned. AffeL (talk) 20:44, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Quick comment Shouldn't this page be called Peter Dinklage on screen and stage? Sam Waterston on screen and stage is an example. If not, please explain the difference.--Cheetah (talk) 01:13, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Crzycheetah: Maybe, I think so.. I don't know to change the name of a page. Could you help me out? - AffeL (talk) 16:16, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The lead is far too short. At 1333 characters it wouldn't even qualify as a DYK.
The filmography type article should have in its lead a summary of the actor's career which shows their journey in the industry: debut, ups, downs, breakthrough, most critically and commercially recognised films.
There's no mention of the stage career in the lead.
Perhaps you could make a sourced directors column in the film table.
Ref 8 should be publisher=Academy of Television Arts & Science
Just a Kiss ref has a typo
Fix the WP:SHOUTING in Ref 14, ref 31, ref 37
Questionable sources: Ref 11, Terapeak is a reliable source, moria.co.nz in Ref 23, moviejungle in Ref 29, futon critic in Ref 37, tvfodder in Ref 38,Failoobmennikmania3.wixsite.com in Ref 48, Ref 33 (Daily Mail). Please replace these.
Ref 26 needs to properly formatted as an ebook.
For all tables, everything in the table must be sourced eg: roles, year of release, theater, that they acted as producer.
For names of roles they need to be sorted with the sortname template so that they sort by last name.
Titles of films also need to be sorted so that "The", "A" are ignored.
Film table is missing The Three Christs of Ypsilanti, television is missing Ice Age Columbus: Who Were the First Americans?
