Someone posted a request to have this article listed on FLRC talk a while back, and it was never done. I decided to have a look at the list, and it has obvious deficiencies that cause it to fail the FL criteria. The most pressing of these is a lack of inline citations; there's only one in the whole article, and the body doesn't have any. In addition, it has the old-fashioned "This is a list of" opening, and the formatting in general pales in comparison to modern FLs such as List of parrots.

- Although the content is uncontroversial, the standard is well below what is required for a featured list now. Unless someone is prepared to take on the considerable task of salvaging this, it should be delisted Jimfbleak - talk to me? 05:54, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist. As pointed out above, it would be a major project to bring the referencing up to FL standard. Dudley Miles (talk) 09:08, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist: Per above, standards are and should be much higher now. SchreiberBike | ⌨ 17:29, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
