This is one of 207 UK timelines and I'm nominating this one as it is currently the best referenced out of all of them. I've checked several different printed and online sources and this list appears to cover all the major events of 1987 and hopefully it covers all of the section 1 criteria. I suppose the only question is whether a better lead is required. Tim! 09:35, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment There should not be a space between punctuation and citations, and the references are improperly formatted.. ShadowHalo 02:16, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment- There are no spaces between punctuations and footnotes. See, WP:FOOTNOTE.
- The references need to list at least the publisher and access-dates. You could use {{Cite web}} as a reference.
Yes, the lead needs to introduce a couple of major events.

- My comments were met. I support, even though Circeus is right that it's too hard to judge the comprehensiveness of the article.--Crzycheetah 20:07, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose I would be neutral (too hard to judge criterion 1(b), comprehensiveness) if not for that ridiculous "date unknown" for the Keidrych Rhys entry. Just because the date is not listed in the Wikipedia entry is no excuse! Circeus 05:38, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: The references section should probably be renamed notes. Also, a date should really be found for when Keidrych Rhys died. -- Underneath-it-All 17:14, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- For the record, I added one to the article. Oxford National Biography was nice enough to have one. Circeus 15:45, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for that Circeus. Tim! 16:34, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Oppose: This list does not have a well-defined entry criteria... I know this is a problem for this sort of list, andwill try hard to think of one. More generally, this list really should have some images illustrating some of the items on the list. Tompw (talk) (review) 23:11, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
