List of cities in Alaska[edit]

Featured list candidates/List of cities in Alaska/archive1

Nominator(s): Mattximus (talk) 00:28, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I am continuing my project of standardizing all lists of municipalities in North America. Thanks to the reviews of many wikipedians, this will follow 18 successful nominations (such as: Montana, Alabama), and one other that is nearly complete the process making it #20 if successful. This one is on the larger side but I believe this article is a complete and comprehensive list of all cities in Alaska.

I have modeled this list off of other promoted lists so it should be of the same high standard. I've incorporated suggestions from past reviews to make this nomination go as smoothly as possible. I hope I caught them all, but I'm sure I missed a few. Thanks again for your input. Mattximus (talk) 00:28, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support Another well done list. Reywas92^Talk 20:45, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Aoba47[edit]

I do not believe that image caption for the main image needs punctuation as it is not a full sentence. Done
Should the phrase “Unorganized Borough” be capitalized? I apologize if this is obvious, but I was just wondering as “organized borough” is not capitalized.

Yes, this is the weird thing. Unorganized Borough is actually the name of the unorganized borough. Creative, I know.

I would link the phrase “census areas”. Done

Great work with this list! It was very informative and an interesting read. I will support this once my relatively minor comments are addressed. Have a wonderful day! Aoba47 (talk) 23:21, 5 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your review! All comments addressed. It's hard to get reviewers in the summer time, so I appreciate you taking the time. Mattximus (talk) 13:33, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for addressing everything! I support this for promotion. Aoba47 (talk) 18:47, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by Dudley[edit]

What is 'platting'?

It's making maps, for zoning and things like that. It's actually silly to mention, so I just removed it.

I would mention in the lead that Juneau is the capital.

I do mention it twice, once in the image caption and once in the table, do you think it requires a third mention? I'm indifferent either way.

A first rate article. Dudley Miles (talk) 20:57, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review! Mattximus (talk) 01:14, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support. I would mention the capital in the lead, but it is not important. Dudley Miles (talk) 19:54, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
