I am nominating this for featured list because the progress made during archive1 makes me feel that this should be featured-level with a few minor changes. TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:00, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
Comments by MPGuy2824
[edit]- Add a "(pictured in <year>)" for Danny Wuerffel since it seems to be from much later in his life. Check the same for the other images as well.
- I just added the feature to all images for consistency-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 14:25, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- You can remove the bolding from the image captions, since the information is already present in the table.
- Support promotion as the above are minor issues, and the first nomination was closed just before I indicated my support there. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 05:21, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
Comments
[edit]- I think "The Football Academic All-America Team Member of the Year is the annual most outstanding singular college football athlete of the set of American football athletes selected for the Academic All-America Teams in a given year." would be a more grammatically correct opening
- swapped in. Thx.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 14:37, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "collegiate athletic competition (known as division)s" - why is the s outside the bracket?
- Fixed.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 14:38, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "For each division, a set of eight districts were delinieated." - the subject is "set", which is singular, so the verb should be singular ("was"). Also, "delineated" is spelt incorrectly
- Thx.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 14:42, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "For the NCAA Division I-level teams, the 2021–22 districts were as follows" - is more up to date info not available?
- Up to and including 21-22 used a set of districts. Afterwards, districts were cast aside. I have tried to revise the text to better clarify this.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:21, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "In 2022, the All-district selection process" - previously you had a capital D in "All-District"?
- Fixed.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:42, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "In addition, Tennis and Swimming & Diving were added" - none of these sports are proper nouns so they do not need capital letters
- Thx.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:46, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "Also, the qualifying G.P.A. was raised" - please write whatever GPA stands for in full with the abbreviation in brackets. I for one have no idea what a "GPA" is
- Fixed for singular use.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:50, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "was held separately for the college and University Divisions" - inconsistent capitalisaion
- Thx.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:56, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "From each team one winner for each sport was chosen from both the college and University Divisions" - and again here
- Got it.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:03, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "Thus, all twelve Academic All-American teams (Men's and women's basketball" - men's does not need a capital M
- OK.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:20, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "had one Academic All-American of the Year each of its divisions" => "had one Academic All-American of the Year for each of its divisions"
- Done-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:24, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "while in some sports Two-Year College, Canadian Institutions" - none of these words need capitals apart from "Canadian"
- Thx.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:26, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "into the districts for the other 4 sets" => "into the districts for the other four sets"
- Fixed.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:27, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "only Rob Zatechka had earned this award for Nebraska" => "only Rob Zatechka has earned this award for Nebraska"
- Thx.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:29, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "amd Mac Jones (2020–21)" - "and" is spelt wrong
- Fixed.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:33, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "all earned the ovearll award" - "overall" is spelt wrong
- Thx.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:35, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- "Two-time Winners" - "winners" doesn't need a capital
- I disagree. This is where title case is appropriate.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:40, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- Why do you have the notes for the winning players within that section yet the notes to the "winners by school" get their own sub-heading? Just move them into the section with the table.
- OK.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:17, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- Also, none of the notes to the "Schools with multiple awards" section are complete sentences, so they should not have full stops.
- Thx.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:21, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- That's what I got -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:19, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]
- User:ChrisTheDude all done except for the disagreement on title case.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:21, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[]

[edit]- Image review passed
- All images have alt text
- All images appropriately licensed (AGF on own work)
- Images relevant to the text
- Captions suggestion: instead of formatting with multiple lines, perhaps write a little prose? For instance, "Justin Herbert in 2021, who was the winner in 2018 and 2019". Otherwise, looks good.
- Some prose comments
- "For Division I, Justin Herbert is the most recent repeat winner." -> "Justin Herbert is the most recent repeat winner in Division I."
