List of awards and nominations received by Lana Del Rey[edit]

Nominator(s): Littlecarmen (talk) 20:26, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because I have been working on this list for a while and think it meets the criteria. I would be thankful for any comments and opinions! Thank you very much, Littlecarmen (talk) 20:26, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comments:

Watch all-caps in reference 21

Fixed. Littlecarmen (talk) 15:34, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Why can't you merge this list into one table with two additional columns for "Sponsor" and "Award"?

I think it's neater this way since it's clear she's not going to be nominated only once (in comparison to films or albums), and this way, it is easier to navigate and see, which organisation nominated/awarded her at what time for which work. Littlecarmen (talk) 15:34, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It's better for sortability to merge this into one list. All of the headers make this list unnecessarily disjointed, and you can't predict the future. Seattle (talk) 15:19, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Re:CRYSTALBALL - She's already received nominations in different years by the Billboard Music Awards, BRIT Awards and ECHO Awards, for example, so I'm not trying to predict the future. Also, almost every featured list of awards won by an artist is formatted this way. Littlecarmen (talk) 15:35, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ref 35 is out, I don't know if it's dead. Can you replace? Seattle (talk) 21:50, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Replaced. Thank you for your comments, @Seattle:! Littlecarmen (talk) 15:34, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

No need to link common terms like "nightclub".

Unlinked. Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Del Rey began writing" no need for the quick repeat, just "She began..." is fine.#

Fixed. Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"her to get out of her contract" clusmy phrasing, can we improve?

I changed it to "break off her contract". Is that better? Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No need to link common geographical locations like London or England.

Unlinked. Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"was the fifth best-selling album of that year" in what context?

What do you mean? It sold the fifth-most copies in 2012. Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean "in the world"? "in a particular genre"? Be clear. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:45, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I've added "in the world". Littlecarmen (talk) 23:09, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"As of July 2014..." it's December 2014, any update?

No, but I have corrected the number with a better source. Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Born to Die: The Paradise Edition" uses a colon not a spaced endash.

Yeah, it was recently changed. Fixed. Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No references for the end of the third para of the lead.

That's because it's all sourced in the body of the article. Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Best Original Song - Motion Picture" needs an en-dash.

Didn't it already have one? Oh well, I re-did it. Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Why are awards given to Lana Del Rey herself shown as N/A?

That's just the way I've seen it most of the time, but I've fixed it now. Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"The XBOX Entertainment Awards are held by XBOX and voted for by XBOX players" XBOX used three times in a single sentence is a little dull.

I've changed it to "The XBOX Entertainment Awards are held by XBOX and voted for by the console's players." Is that better? Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Check refs, 42 for instance shows the BBC as being a work not a publisher.

I've changed all of the "work="s to "website="s. That's correct, isn't it. Thanks for the comments! Littlecarmen (talk) 16:45, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure I agree. The BBC is a publisher of information. You could argue that BBC News or similar are "works" or "websites". The Rambling Man (talk) 20:32, 21 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

All right, I've changed Ref 1's website to BBC News and made BBC the publisher, and for Ref 42, I made Newsbeat the website and BBC the publisher. Littlecarmen (talk) 10:03, 22 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
