List of Auburn Tigers head football coaches

 * Nominator(s): Patriarca12 (talk) 00:17, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I feel it meets the FL criteria as it incorporates comments from previous lists on the same topic of SEC head football coaches (List of Alabama Crimson Tide head football coaches and List of Tennessee Volunteers head football coaches). Any and all comments are greatly appreciated and thanks in advance to all who take a peek at this! Patriarca12 (talk) 00:17, 25 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Comments from KV5
 * Table needs to be updated to meet WP:ACCESS requirements; see MOS:DTT for details.
 * Can you please clarify what you would like to see? I am not sure what exactly you are looking for as this is patterned exactly after the Alabama and Tennessee lists that were promoted to FL previously. Any help would be great! Patriarca12 (talk) 22:10, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Those lists were promoted before the ACCESS table standards were updated. The tutorial provides in-depth directions, but what is needed here are row headers, scope parameters, and table captions at minimum. &mdash; KV5  •  Talk  •  02:12, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I will continue to work on this and let you know when I think I have it correct in the next day or so. Thanks! Patriarca12 (talk) 17:23, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I swapped the key altogether for the Template:List of college football program head coaches key that I have since been made aware of, and think I have updated the table accordingly to the new standards. If it needs more tweaking, please let me know. If it looks good, I will make the appropriate changes to previously FL's I have submitted on the same topic. Thanks again!

 * Everything looks good except that there are no row headers yet. &mdash; KV5  •  Talk  •  11:02, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I think I finally got this down. Thank you for your patience and for taking a look at this again! Patriarca12 (talk) 12:39, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
 * That's done it. Swell. &mdash; KV5  •  Talk  •  00:22, 25 August 2011 (UTC)


 * One dead link.
 * Link fixed.

Can't find anything else to quibble with. &mdash; KV5  •  Talk  •  23:30, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

Support Well done. &mdash; KV5  •  Talk  •  00:22, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

Comments - very good, but is it "postseason" or "post-season"? Possibly need to check your other lists for this. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:32, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
 * It is definitely "Postseason" and I have fixed that on all of the SEC lists. Can't believe I haven't caught that before! Thanks for taking a look at this! Patriarca12 (talk) 12:31, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

My concerns have been addressed. Changing to support  Purpleback pack  89  ≈≈≈≈  14:01, 28 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Comments Support:
 * The key table looks horrible. Other than adding header scopes ( ! scope="col" | and ! scope="row" | ), I see no reason why the previous key would fail the new WP:ACCESS standards.
 * Ultimately I will defer to whatever consensus is reached, but I feel the template version does look better, presents the information in an easy to follow, uniform manner and will utilize it in both past and future coaches' lists I work on if this will work for FLs.
 * NThomas, the current key table looks horrible? Patriarca12 worked in Template:List of college football program head coaches key, which will standardize the tables for these kind of lists.  Please take a look at the template and let me know if you have issues with it.  Thanks. Jweiss11 (talk) 03:09, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Unless the template can be rewritten to hide unused parameters, one of the things brought up over and over here with past FLCs, there's going to be a lot of lists with extraneous abbreviations for parameters not even used. Since this really doesn't pertain to this FLC though, I've started a new section on the template's talk page about my concerns about the template itself. NThomas (talk) 04:00, 24 August 2011 (UTC)


 * What happened to the section headers?
 * Not quite sure what happened there, but fixed now. Thanks for taking a look at this! Patriarca12 (talk) 03:20, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Template:Southeastern Conference football coach navbox needs to be included on this list since the template links to it and other SEC HC lists, not the program.
