• Featured list removal candidates/List of Iowa Hawkeyes football seasons/archive1

Notified: RhinoSpear79

The major easy-to-spot issues:

• "This is a list..."
• Non-compliance with WP:ACCESS per:
  • MOS:DTT
  • Colours being used without symbols.
• Raw URLs being used.
• Don't start sentences with a number.
• All the notes under the table are unreferenced.
• The whole of the lead is unreferenced.
• Incorrect use of bold per WP:BADEMPHASIS.

Delist woefully outdated, no inline citations in lead, not clear what is referencing the table, which fails MOS:DTT. NapHit (talk) 19:43, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Strong delist. Yikes. Look at those references. Bruce Campbell (talk) 22:49, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

I don't know how hard/easy it would be to find appropriate references for the lead, but delist until it has some. --Philosopher ^{Let us reason together.} 03:35, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

• Delist outdated, table doesn't meet WP:ACCESS or WP:DTT, rare references even, avoid bold links per WP:BADEMPHASIS, per WP:MOS, don't use "This is a list" please, as said above. TBrandley 22:54, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

• Comment – I won't declare a position so that I can close the FLRC if need be, but this is in really rough shape. I can't add much to what has been pointed out already, and a lot of editing is needed. Giants2008 (Talk) 20:09, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

• Comment "Lamb, D. and McGrane, B. (1964) 75 Years with the Fighting Hawkeyes. WM. C. Brown Company" would be a very useful ref for this list. Sadly, google Books does not offer a preview. Buggie111 (talk) 21:26, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
