Featured list candidates/Associated Press NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award/archive1

Nominator(s): Lizard (talk) 03:49, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because I've spent several hours working to bring this article to its current state, compared to how it was previously. I believe it meets featured list criteria. Lizard (talk) 03:49, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comments quick run:

Image caption, spell Tomlinson's first name correctly please.
"Nearly every winner of the award has been either a running back or a quarterback, with Rice being the only exception" -> "Every winner ... with the exception of ...."

~~:*@The Rambling Man: I'm having a little trouble constructing this in a way that doesn't look awkward to me; what's the exact wording you propose? Lizard (talk) 16:02, 5 June 2017 (UTC)~~[reply]

Never mind, I've got it. Lizard (talk) 16:05, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

All season links are piped redirects.
O.J. Simpson -> O. J. Simpson.
Ref col doesn't need to be sortable.

Comments – After reading through the list I only have a few comments; this appears to be in solid shape overall.

The bit about "after leading the league with a 117.1 passer rating" could use a reference.
In addition, the Tomlinson and Peterson photos could use cites for their statistics, since they aren't mentioned in the lead.
Minor point, but I noticed that ref 4 (Gadsden Times) doesn't have a page number, unlike the other Google News sources. I've always preferred to add the page numbers for Google News cites, just in case they ever pull a story offline (I've seen it happen before), and since you have page numbers for the others, it might make sense to add one for this reference as well.

Support – This is a strong list that in my opinion meets FL standards. Good work. Giants2008 (Talk) 21:18, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support – The images could do with alt text, but otherwise this is a good quality list that I'm happy to support. Harrias ^talk 08:47, 27 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support – Mainly per Harrias. I would like to see a couple more images to the right of the table and see alt text, but otherwise, I found the list to be very organized and well-written. Sportsguy17 (T • C) 14:47, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'll add alt text. As for more images, for articles like these I prefer in-game "action shots," which are unfortunately pretty scant for pre-21st century players. Just having a head shot of the player in retirement doesn't add much value in my opinion. Lizard (talk) 15:02, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Comprehensive list with a well-written introduction. Don't feel obligated, but I'm looking for comments on my FLC. Cheers. Freikorp (talk) 11:11, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
