I am nominating this for featured list because.. I feel that the list is very comprehensive and meets the FA criteria. I have followed other FL's a guideline for the list so I hope that it meets it. I've not done a list for a singer like this with this many albums, so I feel that the main issue that will be bought up by other editors could potentially be the length of the lead. It is four paragraphs, but there is 10 albums mentioned, so it's not much per album when broken down like that. Thanks.  — ₳aron 13:36, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Source comments –

  • Reference 30 (About.com) is not a reliable source. I suggest finding an alternate source to cover this information.
  • In the last three references, I see "Arista Records", "Arista", and "Arista Record". Which is it? Giants2008 (Talk) 22:20, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from SchroCat[edit]

  • FN28 has Arista Records linked, the other refs don't: it's up to you which you choose, but you need to be consistent
  • (Related to, but separate from, the above) You have a number of the refs with all the publisher details linked, and others with none of them linked. Again, your call which way you go, but you should be consistent. Those with unlinked details are: 23 (British Broadcasting Corporation); 29 (Christianity Today International)
  • FNs 1, 4 and 6 has "Billboard. Prometheus Global Media."; FN16 has Billboard "(Nielsen Business Media)": which is correct?

Any progress on the above two groups of comments? It's been a couple of weeks, and I'd expect to see some work done by now. Giants2008 (Talk) 20:20, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delegate comment - Calvin, do you still have interest in this nomination? It is nearly 3 months old. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:01, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'll have a go at wrapping this up, rather than letting it go stale. Already resolved the first group of comments and the first of the second group, will get to the rest later........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • Sorry yeah I will do it today. I've not go much spare time as I do an MA.  — ₳aron 13:36, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        • I think someone has done them already?  — ₳aron 21:46, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
          • I haven't address all the outstanding comments above......... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:45, 2 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Just as with List of songs recorded by Nicki Minaj, the single releases are unreferenced and there are items at Whitney Houston discography which are missing here. Also, "The Greatest Love of All" in lead vs "Greatest Love..." in the list. Adabow (talk) 23:10, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
