2010 Asian Games medal table

 * Nominator(s): — Chris! c / t 00:20, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it meets all the requirements.— Chris! c / t 00:20, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Comments – Note that I gave a talk page review here, so most of my comments have been taken care of already.
 * The lead is quite short, at two small paragraphs. Is there anything more that can be added to it?
 * Not really. And I don't think the lead is that short when comparing this to the one at 2008 Summer Olympics medal table— Chris! c / t 22:12, 20 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Is there anything citing China's medal table-leading streak (eight in a row)?  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 21:25, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Done— Chris! c / t 22:12, 20 January 2011 (UTC)


 * I am tempted to oppose until a "map" of the medal winners such as the one in 1984 Winter Olympics medal table is added. Nergaal (talk) 01:04, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think you should oppose because it lacks a map. A map would be nice but it is not required. With that said, I will try to make one, though it would take some time.— Chris! c / t 23:07, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Added— Chris! c / t 05:16, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Support but please add a reamark that China won about 40% of the gold medals. I opposed because in a short medal table like this one, one could argue that it is a cfork of a medallist table. Also, since there are only 9 non-medal-winning countries, it might be appropriate to list them somewhere. Nergaal (talk) 18:26, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, done— Chris! c / t 20:16, 5 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Comments from  Harrias  talk
 * "Athletes from 35 NOCs (Kuwait participated under the Olympic flag due to the suspension of its NOC)[2][3] won medals, leaving 9 without a medal, and 29 of them won at least one gold medal." – it is not particularly clear which noun is being referred to in the numerical list towards the end: 9 and 29 could refer to either the individual athletes, or the NOCs: can you clarify the sentence.
 * Similarly, the last sentence in the first paragraph: "Macau and Bangladesh won their first Asian Games gold medal from wushu and cricket, respectively." – Not sure if medal should be plural or not here, and you need a comma after medal regardless.
 * When I try and sort by 'Total' in the table, the page goes a bit funny, and tries to redirect me to somewhere else (undefined) on the page. (It adds a hash to the end of the address bar, as if internally navigating).
 * On the map, doesn't host country really represent the host city?
 * Ref 2 could do with a publication date (5 January 2010). (Check other references for possible missing information too)
 * Ref 32 is in the form YYYY-MM-DD, while all other references are DD MONTH YYYY
 * Fixed all except sorting issue. I don't know why it does not work for that particular column. It could be a bug or something.— Chris! c / t 06:30, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Look like other medal table lists (e.g. 1984 Winter Olympics medal table) have the same problem. So, this is likely a site-wide bug.— Chris! c / t 06:34, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
 * It is because of "colspan". It works now after I removed it. Ruslik_ Zero 16:53, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
