List of Best in Show winners of Crufts

 * Nominator(s): Miyagawa   (talk)  17:18, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it to now be the most complete information on this subject available. Most lists of this type only include the Best in Show information and do not include the earlier Best Champion title. In addition, the official history of crufts only list best champion from 1906 whereas I discovered (only today while doing a tidy up) that the first time was actually given out in 1905.

The article has gone through a peer review which had somewhat derailed the idea of nominating this for a FL as there was substantial missing information of which I had no access to. However, the Kennel Club (UK) recently posted the schedules and catalogues of Crufts up until 2007 which has managed to fill in the gaps and show that there was no best champion title after 1912.

I've included images in the first table but not in the second following on from the FL comments when I nominated List of Best in Show winners of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, the reason for the lack of images in the second table is simply the lack of commons licensed images avaliable for those years.

I should note that the terms Cruft's and Crufts are somewhat interchangable - it was Cruft's until the mid fifties and afterwards was used only as Crufts. Miyagawa  (talk)  17:18, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Fixed the first external link and removed the second as it was only to reference the most successful breed which can be seen from the rest of the article. Miyagawa  (talk)  15:39, 27 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Support as ever, a treat to have non-"standard" lists here. The Rambling Man (talk) 15:14, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

 Comments Support –
 * There's a space between the initials of H. S. Lloyd in the lead, but not in the photo caption or list. I'm pretty sure the space should be there.
 * For the winners without a prefix, I'd suggest inserting a dash of some type (probably a large em dash). That would look more attractive than just blank space.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 13:19, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your comments, I've corrected the initials and inserted the dashes. Miyagawa   (talk)  21:32, 6 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - There is an inconsistency in the dates with the references. Afro  ( Talk ) 18:46, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Yep, missed that. All dates should be in the same format. The Rambling Man (talk) 18:47, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Support - I see no other problems with the list. Afro  ( Talk ) 19:00, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
