I've listed this article for peer review because I want to work on it for FL. What I need to know is what awards are notable, which are disposable and what should I write in the lead.

Quick comment - the first obvious thing that strikes me is the lack of references. The first place I'd start if I were you, is getting some references and external links to prove that she actually got these awards. -- Jack?! 00:22, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
- That is what I plan to do, but after someone tells me which of these awards are actually notable/legitimate. I'm sure some of them have to go. --12345abcxyz20082009 (talk) 10:45, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
Ruhrfisch comments: I agree with the above comments, here are some more suggestions for improvement.
- I think what would be very helpful here is to have some model articles - there are many Featured Lists on awards and nominations by musical artists. Search for "Awards won by artists" in WP:FL - for example List of awards and nominations received by Amy Winehouse is a FL and seems like it would be useful for ideas and examples to follow. List of awards and nominations received by Alicia Keys is another.
- There should be an introductory sentence or two for each award to provide context for the reader.
- I would say that if the award or organization givining it is notable enough to have an article here, it is notable enough to be included in this list. Again, the model lists might also help with this.
- The lead should introduce the reader to who Lily Allen is, as well as give some idea of the awards she has been nominated for and received. See WP:LEAD
- I think similar awards could be grouped together - for example there are multiple MTV awards in this article, why not put them all under a MTV header, with subheaders as needed?
- Article could use some images - the Lily Allen article has many nice, free images
- My rule of thumb is that every quote, every statistic, every extraordinary claim and every paragraph needs a ref.
- Internet refs need URL, title, author if known, publisher and date accessed. {{cite web}} and other cite templates may be helpful. See WP:CITE and WP:V
- Make sure refs used meet WP:RS - of the two refs used in the article now, I am not sure that http://www.metrolyrics.com/lily-allen-awards-featured.html is a reliable source
Hope this helps. If my comments are useful, please consider peer reviewing an article, especially one at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog (which is how I found this article). I do not watch peer reviews, so if you have questions or comments, please contact me on my talk page. Yours, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 13:51, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
