Grammy Award for Best Rap Album

 * Nominator(s): Another Believer  ( Talk ) 19:25, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it meets criteria and closely resembles other Grammy lists with FL status. Second verse same as the first...! -- Another Believer ( Talk ) 19:25, 14 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment I don't think "rap" is a musical genre; it is a recitative "contrived" by Afro-Americans in the United States. I think you need to change quality albums in the rap music genre at the Grammy Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1958 and originally called the Gramophone Awards to quality albums to award music featuring rapping... for example.-- ♫Greatorangepumpkin♫ T 20:22, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. The infobox now states that the award is presented for "quality albums with rapping", the lead indicates the same, and I updated the description in the second paragraph based on the category description guide for the 52nd Grammy Awards. -- Another Believer ( Talk ) 21:04, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Comments - Per MOS:TEXT the small html tags shouldn't be used. Afro  ( Talk ) 20:36, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
 * No, WP:FONTSIZE states "Editors should avoid manually inserting large and small fonts into prose...large tables may require a decreased font size". Adabow (talk · contribs) 03:15, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
 * "Increased and decreased font size should primarily be produced through automated facilities such as headings or through carefully designed templates." Afro  ( Talk ) 20:31, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Comment The Nationality column could be replaced by a sentence in the lead or a footnote—All winners of the award so far are American.—indopug (talk) 04:41, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Should the column not be kept for the sake of consistency with other Grammy lists? Also, it seems to me that the lead should summarize the information displayed in the table. Without the Nationality column, the sentence included in the lead would need a source to verify that all winners are American. -- Another Believer ( Talk ) 17:25, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
 * There's no reason to include the column if the only rationale is because the other lists have it. Each article is unique. WesleyDodds (talk) 03:48, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree that each list is different. Do you have a response to the second part of my reply? -- Another Believer ( Talk ) 16:50, 18 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Support job done. Nice.  The Rambling Man (talk) 18:52, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment – Check the publisher of reference 19; there's an s missing from Los Angeles Times.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 23:26, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
