List of Linkin Park awards
This is a co-nomination with. We believe it meets all criteria. As always, comments will be addressed. « Milk's Favorite Cøøkie  03:15, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Bold the topic that appears in the first sentence. See WP:BOLDTITLE.
 * Wikilink the album names that appears in the lead (paragraph 2, sentence 1 & 3).


 * I have linked the albums. WP:BOLDTITLE also says to not bold the lead when there are links, which there are and we would rather keep. Gary King ( talk ) 03:49, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I have striked out that comment. Reorion (talk) 04:16, 19 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Support- meets the FL criteria, it is comprehensible and the list is understandable with no flaws. My comments that I would have addressed have been brought up by Gary.-- S R X   18:03, 19 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Oppose Linkin-park-lyrics.com is not a reliable source; the popstarsplus.com link is a Wikipedia mirror. Rateyourmusic is not reliable either as it is "an international metadata database where musical albums, EPs, singles, videos and bootlegs (collectively referred to as "releases") are added, rated, and reviewed by users."

 * I have removed all of those references because the information is backed by other references. Gary King ( talk ) 18:49, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Comments
 * "This is a list of awards ..." zzzz - articles don't start with "This is an article about..." so why should lists? I'd try to be more imaginative.  Something along the lines of "Linkin Park are a Grammy award and multiple MTV award winning band from..." or similar?
 * "...in 2006. [7]" remove the space.
 * I find the first paragraph a bit choppy - can you improve the flow of the short sentences by merging?
 * "...band would then win ..." why not just "band won"? And if you're linking MTV awards, why not the Grammy?
 * " After Meteora success" - "the success of Meteora" or "Meteora's success" surely?
 * "In 2004, the band worked with Jay-Z to produce a album, entitled Collision Course. A single from the album "Numb/Encore" won a Grammy Award. " can you merge these two short and clunky sentences?
 * Same idea for the last two sentences of the lead.
 * Ref 9 can have an  and   added.

 * All done. I copyedited the lead a bit further, however, because I realize it could have been better, so please take another look. Gary King ( talk ) 17:33, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
