BBC Sports Unsung Hero Award

 * Nominator(s): The Rambling Man (talk, Rambo's Revenge (talk) 11:57, 20 March 2013 (UTC) 

I am nominating this for featured list because it now meets the "minimum entries" unwritten rule (of ten) and complements all the other FLs within this existing featured topic. I'm nominating on behalf of User:Rambo's Revenge who is absent right now, in an attempt to stop the currently featured topic being demoted. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:57, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - the lead variously makes reference to the six and seven winners to date - as you state, there have actually been ten........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:45, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh shucks. I suppose I should have read the list more thoroughly....!!  Will look at shortly.... The Rambling Man (talk) 15:52, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I think I've dealt with that glaringly obvious issue, would you be kind enough to have a look at the rest of it now? Cheers!  The Rambling Man (talk) 17:28, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * "Of the ten recipients to date, three were chosen for their contributions to football; the other recipients contributed towards boxing, swimming, and the Special Olympics could do with updating (only adds up to six), as could Three of the ten winners have been put forward from the BBC South region and two from the BBC East region. The other winners came from the BBC London, BBC West Midlands and BBC Wales regions" (only adds up to eight). Other than that I can't spot any issues...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:52, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Tsk, must learn to read...! Thanks, fixed that. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:57, 22 March 2013 (UTC)
 * The first part's still not quite right........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:47, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, well as I said, reading isn't my specialist subject! Fixed, I hope, I didn't add "various" into the lead, but lead should cover it generally speaking!!  The Rambling Man (talk) 20:22, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
 * The two other tables are redundant since the column sorting system does the job and there are no significant numbers that require more than a few seconds to be counted.--Tomcat (7) 11:00, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Well they're consistent with all the other lists in the topic, and since they do no harm, I don't see the big deal. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:03, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Support - can't see any issues now -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:48, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Support - Everything looks good to me. Miyagawa (talk) 14:43, 26 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Athletics is a dab page
 * Perhaps find a way to explain that "Nat." means "Nationality"?
 * Otherwise that's it. I've copyedited. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:06, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Fixed those, thanks! The Rambling Man (talk) 12:08, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Support on prose. No images to check. Looks peachy. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:11, 30 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Comment – Don't need two association football links in the lead. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:20, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Quite so, thanks, fixed now. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:23, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
