- Gary, can't you start working on pages for some better artists? -- Scorpion0422 22:54, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Like who? Out of all the ones I've submitted, I think List of Arctic Monkeys awards is the best band. List of Rage Against the Machine awards is good, too. I listen to almost any music genre and have a huge music library so I think I cover a lot of genres :) But if you've got requests, I'm all ears. Also, some of the bands I wanted to work on are already at FL. A lot of older bands are great, too, but it's harder to find references for older awards ceremonies and such, which is why a lot of these are contemporaries.

- Otherwise, sources look okay. Links checked out with the link checker tool. Ealdgyth - Talk 12:11, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- It looks like E! Online redesigned their website since I last used those references (they still work in Google's cache). I replaced them with an MTV link and with a link directly to the awards' website. Gary King (talk) 14:55, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Do you reference Timabaland's real name anywhere?
- "awarded for outstanding achievements " ditto from before - peacock, quote or OR?
- "recognizing the people and the work of popular culture." - this sentence is dross and I presume it's a quote.... cite it?
- I'd expand the description of the official site to ensure we know it's Timabaland's official site, not Timbaland's award's official site.

- Great list overall, two thing I would like to point however, in the lead you mention his nominated work, but in some lists like this they mention the work and if it was nominated for an award.
- I find the link to Timbaland in the sections redundant because its in the lead and the subject is himself.

- The second comment is a matter of preference, in my opinion. So is the second; I link the first mention of the artist again in the awards sections. Gary King (talk) 01:10, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Nice work. List looks to be properly sourced, well linked, and well laid out. My only request would be for another picture, if at all possible.
- Support this FLC. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 02:46, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure where that second picture would be placed :) The Infobox provides a nice place for one, but that's about it. I have bolded your support declaration above to make it more obvious. Gary King (talk) 03:45, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
