List of Gold Glove Award winners at third base

 * Nominator(s): KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 01:14, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I can. Just kidding. Of course I wouldn't bring anything here that I didn't think met the criteria, nor would I nominate it if I didn't intend to address the comments raised. Cheers. KV5 ( Talk  •  Phils ) 01:14, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Support Just a couple comments though,
 * The first reference isn't working. There are no Disambiguous links, the table formatting looks good, I checked it through AWB and there are no general fixes needed, all the references have good formatting and the lead seems like a good summery of the article. Not much on sports data but other than that it looks like a good list. --Kumioko (talk) 02:17, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
 * The reference does work. If you checked it through the external link checker in the toolbox, it shows up blue because the SI archives block bots and scripts. If you click through directly from the article, you can see the reference. Can you clarify what you mean by "not much on sports data"? KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 11:29, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry I was referring to myself regarding the data in the table. I wouldn't know if its correct. Sorry I should have been more clear.--Kumioko (talk) 13:30, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, I understand. Thanks for your support! KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 13:33, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Comments
 * General
 * Dabs, external links check out fine
 * Lead
 * 'Mike Schmidt is second in wins at third base; he won 10 with the Philadelphia Phillies and leads National League third basemen in Gold Gloves.' -- wouldn't it be the 'National League'?
 * Not in this case. National League is being used as an adjective here. KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 00:04, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, right.-- T ru  c o   503 20:08, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 'Hall of Famers to win a Gold Glove at the position include Robinson, Schmidt, Wade Boggs, and George Brett.' -- Link to the proper Hall of Fame?
 * I knew I forgot something else when I forgot the Hall of Famers. Done. KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 00:04, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 'Two National League winners have made six errors in a season to lead that league: Mike Lowell in 2005,[19] and Schmidt in 1986.' -- I don't think the comma is necessary, or is it?
 * It is; these are items in a list. If there were three, it would look like it made more sense, but it is used properly here. KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 00:04, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Gotcha.-- T ru  c o   503 20:08, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 'The most double plays turned in a season was 44 by Robinson in 1974; he turned 40 or more double plays during three of his winning seasons.' -- How about he turned at least 40 double plays?
 * I can deal with that. Done. KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 00:04, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 * The rest of the list checks out fine.-- T ru  c o   503 23:38, 18 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Support -- Previous issues resolved/clarified; list now meets WP:WIAFL.-- T ru  c o   503 20:08, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Support main issues resolved. – ( iMatthew  • talk ) at 14:37, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Support Comments  from
 * "Hall of Famers to win a Gold Glove"-->Hall of Famers to have won a Gold Glove
 * Changed to "who have won"; seemed a bit less awkward. KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 21:27, 22 June 2009 (UTC)


 * "The least errors committed in a winning season is five" A bit too ambiguous; make it more obvious that you are referring to third-base Gold Glove winners.
 * Done. KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 21:27, 22 June 2009 (UTC)


 * "only pair of brothers to win Gold Glove Awards"-->only pair of brothers to have Gold Glove Awards Dabomb87 (talk) 21:19, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I assume you meant "to have won"; done. KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 21:27, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes I did, sorry for the error. Dabomb87 (talk) 21:34, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Sources look good. Dabomb87 (talk) 21:19, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Support – Very good, just as the others in the series are.  Giants2008  ( 17-14 ) 21:42, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
