List of Nobel Peace Prize Laureates

The sixth, final and trickiest of the Nobel lists. This one is tricky because the first 90 or so years of the official history don't have the official descriptions that the others do. However, most of them do have a brief description of what they did, and that is what was used here. For the ones with little/no description, I supplemented it with a description from this official history article.

Note on the images, I got White cat to do an image review for me, so they should be okay. As always, all concerns will be addressed by me. -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 04:28, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

• I made a review and found:
  • File:IPB-logo.gif <- fish license. Make sure its free. It may very well be free. The image is a terrible quality gif. Get an SVG in there...
  • File:Gustavstresemann.jpg <- up for deletion but was kept previously. Probably will be kept again
  • File:Dag_Hammarskjold.jpg <- other version (linked on the page) may be of better use.
  • File:Sakharov_1943.jpg <- complex license status. PD-russia related. Sort it out please.
  • Aside from that all others are freely licensed. If they turn out to be copyrighted (and falsely licensed) they would be deleted from commons eventually. But I see no problem with them at a glance.

• Support Excellent list! Good work on all the Nobel Prizes and good luck on the Featured Topic. Reywas92^Talk 19:58, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
• Support Second paragraph first sentence: Nobel prizes -> Nobel Prizes

Other than that, looks good—Chris! _ct 20:29, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

• "which is equal to 7,731,004 SEK in December 2008." Very soon, it will be not be December 2008 anymore, and the tense will be wrong. Try: "which is equal to 7,731,004 SEK as of December 2008.
• "Eleven women have won the Nobel Peace Prize, the most of any Nobel Prize alongside the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine." I count twelve.
  • You're right, I miscounted.
• "The International Committee of the Red Cross has been awarded the prize three times (1917, 1944 and 1963), the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees has won twice (1954, 1981)." Insert "and" after the comma.
• Make sure to address White Cat's image concerns.
  • Already done.
• In the sources, some instances of the publisher "Nobel Foundation" are linked. Be consistent, they should all be either linked or unlinked. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:54, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

  Done points 1 and 3. I count 11 female winners as well; it might be a bit long but could you link to the 12? Ironholds (talk) 00:12, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Sources look good. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:54, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks for taking a look. -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 00:19, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
