Nominator(s): Jaespinoza (talk) 21:44, 2 November 2010 (UTC), Another Believer[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because it would be my first venture on award-related lists. Under the guidance of another user expert on this kind of lists, Another Believer, I am presenting this one for the Latin Grammy Awards. Thanks. Jaespinoza (talk) 21:44, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comments - How reliable is Latin Gossip as a source? Ref 18 needs a language parameter. Afro (Talk) 00:12, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • MOS:TEXT#Font size says "Increased and decreased font size should primarily be produced through automated facilities such as headings or through carefully designed templates.", so its to my understanding something needs to be changed about the nominees row regarding the html tags. I'm sure you're aware Nacionality isn't English. I'm sure the note should be under a heading of its own. Afro (Talk) 08:29, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Jaespinoza likely had smaller text for consistency with many of the other Grammy-related lists with FL status. However, smaller text works better for these lists as they display more information in each cell (Nominees column). With this list, only artist names are displayed in the Nominees column, so small text is not required. It looks like the text size concern has been addressed. Also, I corrected the spelling of "Nationality". The note is located under the table in a similar manner for all of the other Grammy-related featured lists; I think this should be left alone for consistency. Feel free to strike or collapse comments that have been address for organizational purposes. --Another Believer (Talk) 20:27, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - I see no big issues with the article. Afro (Talk) 08:22, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. For the following reasons:
  • According to MOS either spaced ndash or unspaced mdash should be used, but not spaced mdash.
I believe this has been corrected. Please let me know if your concern has not been addressed. --Another Believer (Talk) 20:43, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • How often is the award given? From the table it follows that it is an yearly award. This should be mentioned at the beginning of the article.
Done. --Another Believer (Talk) 16:33, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • In 2008, when he was awarded the Album the Year for La Vida... Es un Ratico, broke the record for most Latin Grammys won by any performer, with a total of 16. Should not be 'of' present between 'Album' and 'Year'. And who broke the record—there is no subject in this sentence?
FIXED! Jaespinoza (talk) 21:42, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I went ahead and removed this sentence, as is is more relevant to the artist than to the award itself. --Another Believer (Talk) 16:33, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I do not like 'also' at the end of the last sentence of the lead.
Done. --Another Believer (Talk) 16:33, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Can the last paragraph be expanded? There are more artists in the list who deserve a sentence or two about them.
I took a stab at the lead. I am not opposed to a bit more expansion, but is more needed than the lead's current form? --Another Believer (Talk) 16:33, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another Believer's Comments

Comment — This list is not quite ready for FL status, BUT I am happy to jump in and help with its promotion (I am certain the list can reach FL standards with just a little work). Jaespinoza has been working hard on this list and others, so I'd love to help guide this awards list through the FLC process. I see a couple of ways the list can be improved, so I'll start working on the list as soon as I get a chance. --Another Believer (Talk) 20:27, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • The word "award" (or Award or Awards) appears four times in the opening sentence. I think this needs to be improved!
Better? --Another Believer (Talk) 19:39, 10 November 2010 (UTC)\[reply]
Yes indeed. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:49, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • For me, in Safari, I fail to load Juanes and Rita's images.
Actually, I am having the same problem, though I am not sure of a solution. Clearly the images exist, which can be verified by clicking on the alt text or the "Enlarge" icon, but I don't know why they are not displaying properly. As far as I can tell, display commands are similar for all images in the list. --Another Believer (Talk) 19:39, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I have a similar issue over at Jesse Owens Award. Perhaps it's a mediawki thing. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:49, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, odd. The images there are displaying just fine for me. Must be a temporary glitch. --Another Believer (Talk) 19:55, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is picky, but it was last awarded in 2009, not 2010... (presumably that changes within the next month-and-a-half...!)
Done. --Another Believer (Talk) 19:39, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The 2010 winner will be announced tomorrow. I will update the list as soon as I know who won. Jaespinoza (talk) 22:56, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The 2010 winner is already announced. I did some changes about in the lead section. Jaespinoza (talk) 10:20, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
And I updated the infobox! --Another Believer (Talk) 16:37, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
