List of general elections in Botswana

Nominator(s): 48JCL (talk) 17:37, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Botswana is a country located in sub-Saharan Africa. It is usually referred to as one of the most democratic countries in this region, however not much attention is given to this country. Currently, WP:BOTSWANA does not have any FLs so I think having one would be nice. 48JCL (talk) 17:37, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by RunningTiger123

• "terms; and" – to be a correct compound sentence, should be "terms, and" or "terms;" (no "and")
• Need a key to list all party abbreviations in the table
• References column should not be sortable
• Not a full source review, but just from a quick glance ref. 27 seems questionable as a WP:SPS – what makes it reliable?

@RunningTiger123:, according to the AceProject that created the website, the data is compiled from EISA data, the United Nations, and more.

• Would be nice to see some citation cleanup (e.g., "www.cia.gov" is fine for the website name but not the page title)
  • At the very least, every citation should have the correct page title and a website/publisher name
• No need to apply double bold font to gallery heading
• What is the source for the data used in the maps in the gallery? (Doesn't need to be noted here but should be noted on the image description pages)

@RunningTiger123: pinging @FelipeRev: who created the images.48JCL TALK 17:41, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@48JCL: Please do not mark my comments as resolved. Right off the bat, the double bolding was not fixed and several references are still misformatted (refs. 31 and 40 are immediately obvious). If I think the issues have been resolved, I'll give an indication of that myself. RunningTiger123 (talk) 19:01, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

RunningTiger123, I have added page numbers and fixed bare url errors. 48JCL TALK 02:26, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment by CMD

• The lead feels a bit jumbled, not seeing a lot of coherence in the subject. Off the top of my head, there should be a clear paragraph on what the elections actually do, which is elect representatives to the National Assembly of Botswana (not currently mentioned?) and its predecessors. Following that, information about the President makes more sense. A paragraph on the Dominant-party system under the Botswana Democratic Party makes sense as well, but it would be nice for a more long-scale framing than talking only about the most recent polls. The lead is missing coverage of the timing of the elections, a note on why the seat number increased over time, as well as a summary of the voting and constituency systems. The information on suffrage could be slightly expanded. CMD (talk) 04:24, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  @Chipmunkdavis, I would like to withdraw this nomination Is there any way to ping a FLC coordinator? 48JCL TALK 21:03, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Not sure I'm afraid, not one of my usual haunts, but it's an interesting topic that I hope can continue to be developed. CMD (talk) 01:14, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  @WP:FLC director and delegates: see above. RunningTiger123 (talk) 00:54, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of Coldplay live performances

Nominator(s): GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 19:12, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello everyone! I withdrew this page's nomination last year due to lack of time to address issues that could possibly be brought forward, but I believe I'm ready now. The column scopes in the tables have been fixed as asked before. Other than that, I think we are ready for the next steps. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 19:12, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Drive-through comments

• Concert tours table - does everything need to be center-aligned? It would be better for the number columns (shows, gross, attendance) to be right aligned.
• "width:17.05em" seems like unnecessary precision.
• COLOR shouldn't be the only means of conveying important information. Add a symbol as well. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 02:08, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I think that the centered number columns makes it easier to visualise the information, similar to the List of highest-grossing concert tours. And yes, tables all across the article are precisely aligned, I'm an obsessed perfectionist. With that said, I just made a few adjustments to meet your criteria without compromising mine too much. Sorry for not adding a symbol before, I completely forgot. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 03:19, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• I would suggest center-aligning the "Performed songs" columns as those seem to be the most bulky with substance and are not as easily readable with how much content is there. As a fellow perfectionist, I understand the desire to center these tables, though I concur that the number columns could either be left or right aligned. I've typically seen left-aligned used for release dates in other tables, and the same could work here to help differentiate each table. There are also multiple citations that would benefit from website links and archives, as well. Trailblazer101 (talk) 02:20, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I feel like centering the "Performed songs" columns would be weird, maybe having the "Event" column left-aligned in the "Music festivals" section is a better idea to make things more uniform. As for the dates, are you referring to pages such as List of Lady Gaga live performances and List of Taylor Swift live performances when you talk about them? I find their left-alignment very ugly and they don't fit with the tour articles, centering them in the Coldplay gig catalogue was a conscious decision. Lastly, I archived all the online references already. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 03:00, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Ah, my mistake on the references. I'm not too big on the alignment, and yeah, I was referring to those more popular ones. I'll leave it up to your discretion. It all looks good to me, so I'll gladly Support. Trailblazer101 (talk) 03:33, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Thank you! GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 03:42, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Procedural comment

• As a procedural note, Nominators should not add a second featured list nomination until the first has gained substantial support. Your nomination on the List of cover versions of Coldplay songs has one support at the moment. Pseud 14 (talk) 14:29, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • @WP:FLC director and delegates: , can you please archive this nom. Per the criteria and Pseud, this is a second nom without substantial support on the first nom. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 18:32, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
