List of 50/80cc Motorcycle World Champions

 * Nominator(s): NapHit (talk) 21:02, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I feel that the list meets the featured list criteria. Directors I know I already have an open nomination, but it has three supports with no opposes, so I think its alright, if not feel free to remove this nom.

Comments –
 * "13 years after the start of the first world championships had been inaugurated." Last three words feel redundant to me.
 * "The first championship in 1962 awarded points from first to six place". "six" → "sixth". Also, the comma after this should be a semi-colon, I think.
 * "Stefan Dorflinger won the second most championships second with four." Excess "second" here, and there's a missing "and" immediately after the comma here.
 * "Swiss and German riders were second with four and Dutch riders were third with three". The Dutch riders would be fourth, not third, since there was a tie for second.
 * Now it doesn't say how many wins the Swiss and German riders had.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 21:05, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Really should double-check the changes, anyway I've fixed it. NapHit (talk) 21:56, 2 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Don't need to link the 1962 or 1989 seasons twice in the lead. 1989 is actually linked three times.
 * Footnotes A and B: Is the serial comma being used or not? It is for A, but not B. Should be consistent in both.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 21:25, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the comments Giants, I've addressed them all. NapHit (talk) 21:40, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
 * fixed the serial comma issue as well. NapHit (talk) 21:56, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I still see the comma in that sentence (from the second comment).  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 20:02, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Just seen that comment that was not struck, should be sorted now. NapHit (talk) 11:15, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
