I am nominating Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for featured list because I have worked on the list for several weeks to comply with Featured list standards. I strongly believe that this list has a potential to become a featured list. I followed closely to how the Academy Award for Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actor lists and the Daytime Emmy Award acting lists were formatted.

  • It's pretty confusing that in the lead you refer to the years the awards were held (e.g. "16th ceremony held in 1944") while you don't do that in the table. At least add a footnote to the table that the you are referring to the years the films released not the awards were held.
  • There already is a sentence at the top of the Winners and nominations section that warns readers, "In the following table, the years are listed as per Academy convention, and generally correspond to the year of film release in Los Angeles County; the ceremonies are always held the following year."

My bad! I didn't see it. -- Frankie talk 15:52, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oscars.org seems to have changed its domain.
  • Not according to the latest inspection done by Checklinks. Even if the domain changed (which it would appear in green), does not necessarily mean they are broken links.

  • In these type of lists, it's enough if we just mention the names of the people in alt text per WP:ALT.
  • Done

  • I don't think you need to mention the names of countries preceded by cities e.g. New York, United States. -- Frankie talk 15:21, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Littlecarmen
  • The von in von Obersdorf is spelled with a lowercase v.
  • Same with Petronella Van Daan, Muzzy Van Hossmere, Lili Von Shtupp and Lillian Van Ornum Farmer.
  • Rose-ann D'Arcy is spelled as Rose-ann D'Arcey in the A Patch of Blue article. Which spelling is correct?
  • The a in Stands With A Fist should be lowercase.
  • With Amber Waves/Maggie, Jane Jones/Alice Ayres and Cassidy/Pam you didn't leave spaces before and after the slash, with Mrs. Clover / The Dealer you did.

These are just small corrections though. The list looks very good otherwise. Littlecarmen (talk) 14:09, 25 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Littlecarmen: Done: I resolved everything you mentioned above. I removed the spaces in between the "/" and 'Clover' and 'The' since there is no purpose for it. Also I changed "D'Arcy" to "D'Arcey" using the surnames referred into in print books. I searched the name on Google Books and it came up with "D'Arcey" more often than D'Arcy. Thanks for pointing out the spelling errors.
