Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor

 * Nominator(s): Birdienest81 (talk), ''Cowlibob (talk) 20:25, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

We are nominating Oscars for Best Supporting Actor for featured list because I have worked on the list for several weeks to comply with Featured list standards. I strongly believe that this list has a potential to become a featured list. I followed closely to how the Academy Award for Best Actor and Best Actress lists and the Daytime Emmy Award acting lists were formatted. Birdienest81 (talk) 20:25, 8 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Support: Looks good. But can I ask why you guys didn't include an age superlative section? I think it's good to maintain consistency with the Best Actor and Best Actress lists. -- Krimuk | 90 ( talk ) 02:20, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I forgot about that. That's not a big problem to add. I'm having finals on Tuesday, my Mom's birthday on Wednesday, and my own birthday on Thursday! However, adding an age superlative section is easier than fixing tables. It may take awhile, but I'll promise to get into it ASAP. Other you can gently ask Cowlibob if he wants to do it. Thanks for reminding me, Krimuk90! Cheers.

Support with a minor concern:
 * Support: Well done again.--Jagarin 20:44, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
 * "Brennan has received the most awards in this category with three Oscars" - Oscars is informal, try "awards". -- FrankBoy  CHITCHAT  13:10, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Done

 * Looks mostly good, though don't use links more than once within tables; it doesn't really provide any benefit. It would also help to have more diversity within the references. Snuggums (talk / edits) 20:59, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
 * With all due respect, I've already taken up the issue about duplicate links with FLC delegates Crisco 1492 and PresN who said they will allow it if the list is made sortable (which I did). Furthermore, head FLC director Giants2008 even went to say that whether a table is sortable or not, there are special cases where normal overlink are bypassed so that repeat nominations can be linked for convenience purposes. If this can't have repeat links, then the other Oscar acting lists should be revoked FL status since there would be no consistency. If you disagree with me, that's fine, but I went through the process of asking the delegates and I do not want to be making a big deal out of this. As for the references, they are consistent with all the other Oscar acting awards lists I've done and similar to the ones from the Daytime Emmy Awards.

 * Just a note: the discussion was in the addressed Littlecarmen comments section above. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 16:30, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't think overlinking applies when it comes to the sortable table. In fact it will be good if you link all in a table which is sortable as it depends on how you sort. -- FrankBoy   CHITCHAT 19:21, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

Fair enough, support Snuggums (talk / edits) 19:27, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
