93rd Academy Awards

 * Nominator(s): Birdienest81 (talk) 11:18, 19 June 2021 (UTC)

I am nominating the 2021 Oscars for featured list because I believe it has great potential to become a Featured List. I followed how the 1929, 1979, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020 ceremonies were written. Please note that because this ceremony took place during a pandemic, this list may look slightly different than others. Birdienest81 (talk) 11:19, 19 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Apologies for taking so long to get back to this one. I made a few minor tweaks, but the one thing outstanding for me is that I don't really get a sense of how the "Boseman NFT controversy" actually relates to the Oscars.  The paragraph says "Furthermore, artist Andre Oshea apologized on Instagram after a Non-fungible token (NFT) he designed in the likeness of Boseman's face sparked online backlash", but there's no context of how it links to the ceremony (it just reads like some guy decided to do a thing, which left me wondering how it was relevant to this article).  The Deadline article used as a source says "An NFT created of the late Chadwick Boseman for the 93rd Academy Awards" but even that doesn't really explain in what way it was "for" the ceremony.  Is it possible to elaborate at all?  Bear in mind that this question may in part stem from the fact that I am decidedly middle-aged and un-hip and don't really understand the concept of an NFT...... :-D -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:18, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Apologies for the intrusion, but that was my mistake. For some reason, I had misinterpreted the NFT situation as being more connected to the ceremony than it actually was. Aoba47 (talk) 17:18, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Aoba47 removed the NFT items from the section. Is there anything left to address?

 * Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)
 * The Presenters and Performers tables are missing rowscopes and captions, though you have them in Film awards and nominations
 * Fixed: Reformatted the presenters and performers tables to include rowscopes and captions just like the wins and nominations tally table.


 * I think this is the first one of these that's come through since I started doing accessibility reviews, so I'm working out what to do with the main "table". It's not really a "data table", because it's really just a bunch of boxes stacked next to each other for visual effect. MOS:LTAB says that in that case you shouldn't use a table element at all but html divs, but that if you do use a table, you should add ' role="presentation"' to the table. I've gone ahead and done that- I'm not going to ask that you try to recreate the look with divs, as that would be a lot, but consider going back and adding ' role="presentation"' to the prior Oscars lists to help screen reader software-using readers out with being able to parse your lists. -- Pres N  22:48, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Fixed: Added a role="presentation" to the winners and nominees table.
 * - I've addressed both comments and made the necessary adjustments.
 * --Birdienest81 (talk) 09:07, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
 * - I've added captions to the presenters and performers tables and now I have addressed your comments in full.

Support from Aoba47
Apologies for my rather extreme delay in my review for this. You have done a great job with this list. The prose was engaging and I genuinely enjoyed reading this. Once my above comments are addressed, I will be more than happy to support this for promotion. I hope this is helpful. Have a great rest of your weekend! Aoba47 (talk) 03:31, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I have a comment for this part, by actors Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas. While Jonas has acted, he is far more well-known as a singer so I think calling him an actor here is rather misleading.
 * For this part, during a live globalstream originating from London, I believe it should be "global streaming" as two words. I would also move the streaming link up to this part (since it is the first time it is mentioned) and de-link it later on.
 * Apologies in advance for this question if it is obvious. While I love film, I have honestly not kept with recent releases and I have not seen (or really paid much attention to) any of these films. My question is about this part, Chinese-born filmmaker Chloé Zhao became. Why "Chinese-born" as opposed to just "Chinese"?
 * For this part, the oldest ever performer to win a competitive acting Oscar, I think the following sounds better to me.
 * I am not sure the African-American link is entirely necessary in this part, faced by members of the African-American community, and I would honestly recommend removing it.
 * For this part, Guests were also asked to wear face masks whenever, the link leads to a disambiguation page and it would be best to avoid that.
 * I disagree with the removal of the NFT criticism as that was something very much tied into the criticism of this awards show. The NFT was designed to be given to the nominees so it was a part of the ceremony.
 * - Done: I've addressed all the comments by making the necessary corrections. Thank you for your feedback.
 * --Birdienest81 (talk) 09:07, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the responses. I saw ChrisTheDude's comment on the NFT and upon further reflection and research, this source reports that it was not really connected to the awards ceremony. Apologies for my mistake on this. I remember hearing about it a lot in the days surrounding the ceremony, but it turns out that there was misinformation and the editor who removed this was correct so I would remove it. Apologies for the back-and-forth on this. This was my mistake. Aoba47 (talk) 16:35, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I have removed the NFT part. Apologies if that is over-stepping. Aoba47 (talk) 21:12, 3 August 2021 (UTC)


 * - Thank you for removing the NFT. I actually do agree with ChrisTheDude's comment that the NFT issue is only tangently connected to the Oscars, but not signigcant enough to warrant inclusion on this page. I would say it would be more appropriate on the Chadwick Boseman page itself, but that article is a Good Article and I would suggest asking the user who promoted that article to GA before including it on that page. So, is there any other outstanding issue left on this list?
 * --Birdienest81 (talk) 07:35, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your kind response. Apologies again for my mistake with the NFT part. I support the article for promotion. You have done a great job with this. Aoba47 (talk) 07:44, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

Support from HAL

 * Happy to support. ~ HAL  333  21:40, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

Support – I made one small tweak to the wording, but otherwise, everything looks good. As to the Rotten Tomatoes rating, it's perfectly fine to leave it out; I just wanted to make sure you were aware it was out there. RunningTiger123 (talk) 22:30, 12 August 2021 (UTC)

Source review – Pass
Will do soon. Aza24 (talk) 22:02, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Version reviewed:


 * Formatting
 * Ref 6 Deadline Hollywood missing link (should unlink in ref 10 then, I'm assuming)
 * The rest looks good...


 * Reliability
 * No issues, great sourcing all around from what I can see


 * Verifiability
 * checked a few, no issues.
 * Alas Birdienest81, finding less and less issues in your lists every time :)—Pass for source review, just look at the one minor linking thing above. Aza24 (talk) 22:13, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
 * - Done - Linked Deadline Hollywood on ref 6 and did the opposite for ref 10.
