Feedback begins on June 1, 2008. Voting begins on June 11, 2008. Voting is conducted by naming the five lists (in order) that you feel are most deserving of being recognized as the list of the day. Both voting and feedback continue through the twentieth day of the month. Those who do wish to participate should name the 5 lists that they think are most deserving of being described as List of the Day from the list of candidates. Individuals who have nominated more than 5 lists for a given month may also name a second list of 5 and those nominating more than 10 may name a third list of 5. Please name your selections in order.

In this case the top twelve are all lists that were ranked among the top two by any of the respondents or the top five by at least two respondents.

- I don't think there should be a comma in this phrase: "After two years, during which"--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 21:11, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Sometimes you refer to the band in the singular (Bloc Party was formed ). Other times you refer to them in the plural (Bloc Party have appeared). I think plural is correct, but choose one and stay with it.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 21:11, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Look up rules on collective nouns.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 21:58, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Does a comma belong here: "the Phillies' search for success has been seen as an exercise in futility, because of their long stretches of losing seasons" It does not seem right to me.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 22:12, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

- Is it possible to define the late 70s early 80s era as the Mike Schmidt/Steve Carlton era?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 22:12, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Possible, but not preferred. Sure, they were there, and they were highly influential players, but I think that is already reflected by the list. I am hesitant to define an entire era by one or two players; baseball is a team sport. KV5 • Squawk box • Fight on! 14:08, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
- Paul McCartney has been top seven times sounds slangy.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 22:23, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Is the word each correct? As many christmas albums are produced, I would think it has been recorded in other verions that did not reach #1.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 22:23, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Should you clarify which Aon Center you are talking about since the more prominent one is in Chicago?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 22:43, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- No, I don't think so. It is clear that the building is in Los Angeles from its placement in this list, and an image is provided to avoid visual confusion; any further clarification between the two skyscrapers is more suitable for the individual building article.
