Silver Slugger Award[edit]

I'm nominating this for featured topic because I think it meets all of the criteria. All entries are featured lists. I'm hoping that this will eventually become a subtopic in an overarching Baseball Awards topic, but this is the first step. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 11:37, 10 May 2009 (UTC) [reply]

  • Support Meets all criteria. I reviewed every one of these lists at FLC, and I can guarantee that they are of high quality. Congrats to KV5. Dabomb87 (talk) 13:51, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support You just pounded these out, didn't you? Great job! NW (Talk) (How am I doing?) 15:24, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support The only thing I would say is that you could change the name to "Silver Slugger Award winners", so that you won't have to repeat "Winners" for every single article. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]]call me Keith 17:24, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know much about the naming process, but I think you're also supposed to change the topic name too. So "Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Silver Slugger Award" to "Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Silver Slugger Award winners", etc. Just wait until the regulars comment. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]]call me Keith 22:27, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah SRE.K.A.L.24 is right there. Question: Are there any nominee lists for these awards out there? A quick bit of research suggests to me there are not. In which case I think it would be better not to narrow the scope of the topic (i.e. re-pipe the lead) to just "winners", there'd be no need to. In which case you'd unfortunately have to leave "winners" in all the sub-article pipes which is repetitive but doesn't take that much space. (Also could you provide a picture for the topic box?) - rst20xx (talk) 23:14, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I know that there are no nominee lists. I don't mind leaving it the way it was initially. I would love to provide a picture for the topic box but there's no good picture of the award that's properly licensed on Flickr and so forth. I've asked some photo owners to release their works under a WP-suitable license but none agreed. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 23:36, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think the next best solution would be to do what you did with the article and use a picture of a relevant player - rst20xx (talk) 23:42, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I've included an image of Barry Larkin. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 23:52, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support - also change the layout a bit to avoid redundancy on "winners"—Chris! ct 18:24, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As per the above discussions, and as per the format of all other featured topics, I've changed back to the original version. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 18:40, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
O, didn't see that.—Chris! ct 19:47, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
