First nomination

This is the list's second nomination. The list is comprehensive, fully referenced, very stable; and all issues noted in the first nomination have been addressed and resolved. I don't see any reason for it not to become a Featured List. Kariteh 20:25, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support and I do think it should've passed the first time, and I believe it would have had the nomination not been closed before some of the voters could change their votes when their issues were resolved. --AutoGyro 19:27, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Great lead, fully referenced, complete and comprehenseive. I too see no reason to object. •97198 talk 13:18, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments
    • Are there any available images to add next to the lead? It's not enough to prevent the page from getting featured, but it's a little dry as is.
    • There should be a reference at the end of the third paragraph of the lead to account for all of the information between inline ref 6 and the end of the paragraph. If ref 6 covers the information, than that ref should be moved there.
    • Same goes for the last sentence of the first paragraph of the lead, which is uncited.
    • If reference 1 is the source for all the information in the tables, that needs to be noted somewhere.

Change to Object - I really think the lead referencing issues need to be fixed. Geraldk 14:27, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments
    • I'd like to second Geraldk's comment on the possibility of adding an image.
    • The section titles should incorporate a season's year(s) of original broadcast, not the number of episodes.
    • "Notes and references" is a redundant section title since it has a subsection called "Notes". Probably change the section to "References" and keep the subsection as is.
    • If reference 1 is used throughout the article, I'd suggest listing it as a full citation in "References". Then turn its single note into an inline citation (just the page's title).

Comment: I fixed the references. I'd like to point out that several of the featured lists in the anime and manga wikiproject contain far less citations and much smaller leads than this list does, which by today's standards merits delisting them. Also, as far as images go, it was my belief that fair-use images were frowned upon in lists. --AutoGyro 16:31, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support - good fixes. You're right about the lead / referencing issues on some of those lists, and they should be fixed or nominated for featured list removal. I've started with one. I think fair use images are frowned on when they are used gratuitously and without them really illuminating anything in the article. In this case, as here and here, the use of a single, fair use screenshot of a logo or DVD cover serves to usefully expand on the reader's understanding of the subject of the list, IMO.

Comment: The list now has a fair use image of a DVD cover of one of the volumes that Geneon released in the US. The image has the proper tag and fair use rationale. It does add a little color to the list :P --AutoGyro 17:44, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per 97198, and since my comments have been addressed. Cliff smith 20:45, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per above. This list has been improved significantly since its previous nomination. G.A.S 15:50, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: The list needs to expand on the following:
  • It is not clear to me why only episodes 1 to 79 has American DVD Titles. This should be explained, as otherwise it would seem that the list is incomplete.
  • Ep. 99 title "(First episode of any anime to be broadcast in Stereo)" — This is already provided in the lead paragraph of the section, it should not be explained in the Title field, rather only in the lead, or in the summary field.
  • Ep. 100 – 102 "[Based on a Viewer's Idea]" — This should also not be provided in the Title field, rather in the lead of the section; in the summary; or as a footnote. Currently it gives the impression that the translation is based on a viewer's idea.

Comment: I fixed the issues and added some information in footnotes :)--AutoGyro 18:14, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Much better. Support. G.A.S 19:47, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
