Featured list status

I've noticed that the List of countries in the Eurovision Song Contest is a featured list. While I imagine it could be quite a challenge improving the List of countries in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest to a featured list, it is entirely doable. I believe that the best tack to take would be to start by rewriting the article in a similar fashion to the ESC list. Any thoughts? — Tuxipεdia^(talk) 10:57, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

@Tuxipedia: Featured status is not an easy task to work through. And assessment has a scale system to follow (see Wikipedia:WikiProject Eurovision/Assessment#Overview). I've had a few articles that I either created or contributed towards significantly, that went through Good Article review, and the reviewing can be daunting. FA reviews are even more painful. Both the 2012 and 2013 ESC pages went for FA review and failed dramatically. I'd air on caution and do some background homework first, or ask for a peer review (more details at WP:ESC/A#PR, WP:ESC/A#FAC, and WP:ESC/A#I). Wes Wolf ^Talk 08:30, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

@Wesley Wolf: I vaguely understand the implications of what it means to bring a list to featured status. However, I am content that even if it does not pass its assessment, it will be a better list than it was before, and that is a reward in itself. I have already made many major edits in my sandbox, and I won't be upset if I don't even end up submitting it. In the meantime, I'll just keep perfecting it, checking the Wayback machine and checking it with the featured list criteria. I'll let you know when it nears completion, whenever that may be. — Tuxipεdia^(talk) 09:34, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

Kosovo status

@Alex Great: I want to sort out the problem with Kosovo at long last. It is recognized by a large number of countries, but probably not enough to be called a country. Editors of the Kosovo article call it a "disputed territory" and "partially recognized state". Given it is the only country in light-green, it makes sense to tailor the legend to Kosovo. I suggest we remove the light-green, include it as a part of Serbia and put a note somewhere at the bottom of the article. I pinged you because you are probably more of an expert on this than I am, so I would appreciate your opinion. Thank you. — Tuxipεdia^(talk) 09:14, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

@Tuxipedia: Please don't ping me anymore. I left Wikipedia. ← Alex Great ^talk_rus? 10:24, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

Complaints about table key

@009988aaabbbccc: I noticed you changed a couple of features of the table key back to what they were before. I disagree with the changes, but I'm happy to change my mind.

Firstly, you removed the 2018 column, stating that it is too early and that the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2017 wasn't over yet. JESC 2017 ended a week ago, and five countries have already confirmed participation for JESC 2018. If you wish to wait until the final list is published, I can understand, but I think we should discuss that before simply removing it.

If we do keep the JESC 2018 column, I think you are probably correct about the black boxes. That means there are two options. We can choose not to colour them dark at all, or we can remove the part of the legend that says these countries did not participate.

You removed numbers and replaced them with the "X"s. The reason I changed the "X"s for numbers in the first place is because it is more informative without taking up any more space whatsoever. Normally, NOTASTATSBOOK would apply, but the table isn't expanded by introducing numbers. Therefore it doesn't impede the readability of the article, rather it improves it. — Tuxipεdia^(talk) 19:43, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

Include 2021 in the tables?

I think we should not include the 2021 participation in the tables yet. It makes the comparison not really fair; Russia is listed as having participated more times than Malta simply because PBS hasn't gotten around to posting a confirmation yet. We should wait until the EBU releases the full list of participants. ―Jochem van Hees (talk) 23:50, 8 June 2021 (UTC)

Map

Does anyone know how to change the map to show that Georgia has won 4 times instead of 3? ItsAnthony99 (talk) 17:01, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
