Self-nominator.
I'm nominating this article for featured article because the editor who rated it as a good article suggested I submit it as a featured article. I also believe this article meets the criteria for featured article status. Bwark (talk) 03:17, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Is it necessary to mention the source of each image in the caption? To be honest, this is the first time that I've seen the source of the image mentioned in the caption. Nishkid64 (talk) 04:55, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Did he receive any degrees from the University of Chicago. I ask on behalf of WP:CHICAGO because I am trying to determine if his article should have any of the categories in WP:CHIBOTCATS that we use to tag our articles (or if a new category would be appropriate).--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 07:02, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Response Innis received his PhD from the University of Chicago in August 1920. I have added this information to the article.Bwark (talk) 12:54, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Reply I have added Category:University of Chicago alumni. This will cause the article to fall under WP:CHICAGO in the sense that a bot would tag the article talk page with {{ChicagoWikiProject}}. I am going to add the tag by hand however.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 20:09, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support - I support this nomination; it looks like a really well-written article. Good job! Gary King (talk) 06:49, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support - Well done, I think this meets the criteria for FA. Morphh (talk) 14:52, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support - It is an engaging read. I fact-checked much of it. I hope we can see more of User:Bwark's work in the future. --maclean 05:52, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Notes: there is a MOSNUM issue in the lead, with the century. Please doublecheck the punctuation on the image in the Innis and McLulan section. This would be better cited to an independent source, and the citation should be formatted correctly (see WP:CITE/ES, 44. ^ See Forest Products Association of Canada web site). It may be helpful to ask Epbr123 (talk · contribs) to do a runthrough for any other MoS issues, since there is one in the lead. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:20, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Epbr123 did a run through, and I removed the Forest Products Association of Canada reference. --maclean 21:04, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks, Maclean25. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:06, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
