List of Fairy Tail characters

 * Nominator(s): Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 02:05, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because it has been extensively worked for the past year, using List of One Piece characters as a model. Before I edited this page, it looked a little messy, but thanks to the efforts of editors like User:AngusWOOF, User:Immblueversion and myself, we managed to help improve the list using the aforementioned One Piece character list, as well as the Naruto character list. I think it's suitable enough to cover all of the aspects here on Wikipedia, such as the reception, and chapter references. Therefore, I think it meets the FL standards. I am open to suggestions anyone has to improve this list. Thanks, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 02:05, 1 August 2013 (UTC) Note: This nomination remained untranscluded until 21:10, 14 September 2013 (UTC).

 * Comments by DragonZero
 * I don't remember the reason why, but the amazon links need to be trimmed down. Ex: http://www.amazon.com/FAIRY-TAIL-GE6312-KEYART-NOTEBOOK/dp/B007N54QVE/ref=sr_1_13?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1340127702&sr=1-13&keywords=%22Fairy+Tail%22 becomes http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007N54QVE/ I plan on going over this list more thoroughly later.

 * Going through the sourcing now. Ref 4 is supposed to backup the statement "Mashima based the titular guild on a local bar he was visiting at the time.". However the source states the bar helped him conceive the series, not the guild or characters.
 * Why is Fairy Tail capitalized in the volume references?
 * The statement about Todd Haberkorn should be more precise. I was under the impression the author was worried that Todd would not meet up to standards.
 * I'm concerned about the focus in the conception and reception section. These seem to focus mostly on individual characters; the Naruto character list was more broad and focused on all the characters in general. DragonZero  ( Talk  ·  Contribs ) 07:36, 15 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Oppose and remove immediately nominator is indef-blocked as a result of a self-request. Suggest this is quick-failed unless someone else is prepared to co-nominate, no point in wasting the community's precious time making comments which won't be addressed.

 * I can co-nominate, or help address concerns, although I've never done one of those before. ;) -AngusWOOF (talk) 00:23, 15 September 2013 (UTC)


 * I could also co-nominate, but there are some sections of the article I think could and should be rewritten first. I will address my concerns with AngusWOOF. User:Immblueversion (talk) 01:59, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Ok well if I see you as nominators above in the nominee section, and I see you addressing issues, I'll reconsider my oppose. The Rambling Man (talk) 14:36, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
