The Simpsons (season 10)

Nominator(s): ~~EBE123~~ ^talk_Contribs 19:47, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is a list about all the episodes of the 10th season of The Simpsons. It doesn't have any problems that I can see.

Criteria

Prose
The prose is good, with very high standards.
Lead
The lead is very clear and a good summery of the season.
Comprehensiveness
- It comprehensively covers the defined scope, providing at least all of the major items and, where practical, a complete set of items; where appropriate, it has annotations that provide useful and appropriate information about the items.
  It has lots of information, putting all into 1 list. It has images with annotations, has major items, and with words anyone can understand. Very practical.
- In length and/or topic, it meets all of the requirements for stand-alone lists; does not violate the content-forking guideline, does not largely duplicate material from another article, and could not reasonably be included as part of a related article.
  All checked, it doesn't duplicate material of an article in the list or an related one. It would be hard to reasonably include it into an related article ether.
Structure
Good sections, easy to navigate and well-made tables.
Style
- Visual appeal. It makes suitable use of text layout, formatting, tables, and colour; and a minimal proportion of items are redlinked.
  Text layout is very good, the formatting with all is put well together. There are 2 tables with info. Nice colours and there is only 1 redlinked article.
- Media files. It has images and other media, if appropriate to the topic, that follow Wikipedia's usage policies, with succinct captions. Non-free images and other media satisfy the criteria for the inclusion of non-free content and are labeled accordingly.
  It has good images. Some of them are non-free but comply with the policies. They used to have some problems as saw on the talk page but there are none now. They have good captions too.
Stability
Edited about 1 time per month.

Comments really quick ones.

Lead too short. Probably need another two paras here.
Bare URLs in the refs is a no-no, use {{cite web}} or similar.
Pay heed to WP:DASH, where we use en-dash not hyphen to separate page ranges, year ranges etc.
Don't mix date formats in the refs.
Put references after punctuation where possible (e.g. look at [20] right now).
Have you asked all major contributors if they're happy for you to nominate this article? How many times have you edited this list?

The nominator had edited the article only once recently before the nom (and that was right before nomming the list). There have been a few subsequent edits, but I still think the major contributors should be notified and asked if this is okay, per the instructions. If they respond negatively, this FLC should be withdrawn. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 01:16, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
