Nominator(s): Javier Espinoza (talk) 17:38, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because it was modeled after several "award and nominations" lists. The subject is Jorge Drexler, an Uruguayan singer-songwriter, who received the Academy Award among other accolades. I will be watching your comments closely. Thanks. Javier Espinoza (talk) 17:38, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support per my addressed comments on the talk page. Erick (talk) 18:54, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Javier Espinoza (talk) 20:02, 27 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Quick comment I think you should remove indiscriminate award (e.g. Shock Awards). Well-sourced list nonetheless. HĐ (talk) 04:01, 7 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What if I create the article for the Shock Awards?.Javier Espinoza (talk) 04:08, 7 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see the point of removing the Shock Awards to begin with when the purpose of the list is list every award and nomination the artist received. Erick (talk) 19:01, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • "The singer received" You just called him a singer-songwriter in the prior sentence, maybe just use his last name or "he".

  • ""Al Otro Lado del Río" written" Add a comma before "written".

  • "and received a Latin Grammy and World Soundtrack Awards nominations." "a ... nominations" is wrong and, in my opinion, only awards that were won should be discussed in the lead, since they're the only really notable ones, but I don't think there are strict rules concerning this.

  • "Not allowed to perform the song at the 77th Academy Awards, since "he was not popular enough," according to Spanish newspaper El País, Spanish actor Antonio Banderas and Mexican-American musician Carlos Santana sang the track instead.[3] Upon winning, Drexler recited two verses of the song at the podium.[2][4]" I don't think this part is important to the list.

  • "won for Best Singer-Songwriter Album at the 14th Latin Grammy Awards" -> "won the award for..." Also, mention the year he won the award. The number of times the Latin Grammy Awards have been held isn't important here.

  • "for his contribution "bringing together Spain and Uruguay."" badly worded

  • ASCAP seems to hold ten different award shows each year. You need to mention that he was awarded at the ASCAP Latin Awards.

  • "The World Soundtrack Awards are awarded annually by the Flanders International Film Festival Ghent in Belgium." The WSAs are held during the festival and both are organised by FIAPF.

Swap Goya and Grammy awards so they're sorted alphabetically. You're still missing the Shock Awards. Littlecarmen (talk) 15:36, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support Really good work! I also nominated a list recently. It would be great if you could take a look at it and leave some comments here :) Littlecarmen (talk) 15:42, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support per above. Great Job! — DivaKnockouts 23:12, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support nicely done, can't find anything to pick at. Best, jona(talk) 13:48, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose for now
  • is an Uruguayan singer-songwriter who has received awards and nominations for his contributions to the music industry. - First, it's "a Uruguayan" (it's pronounced with a hard U, according to the Uruguay article). Second, who is he, exactly? You say "his contributions" but don't actually say what they are in the opening sentence.
I expanded the lead to include, please let me know if that is enough. Javier Espinoza (talk) 20:03, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Again, you don't mention what they are in the opening sentence. It works a bit better now that you include the first album, however.
