List of North Carolina Tar Heels in the NFL Draft

 * Nominator(s): Disc Wheel  ( Malk  +  Montributions )  01:31, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I have done all that I have seen in the other "(School name) in the NFL Draft" pages, but with the North Carolina data. I've referenced all of the awards and super bowls, along with most of the points of contention I believe. Go Heels! Disc Wheel ( Malk  +  Montributions )  01:31, 9 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Support Looks good. Ravendrop 02:54, 12 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Support NapHit (talk) 01:14, 23 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Images look okay (no action required)


 * Neutral until a third opinion is given about names. Also, I do not appreciate being called "kid". — Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:47, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Third opinion: Taken literally, WP:REPEATLINK presently allows each target to be linked only once from within a table. However, the main argument against linking everything possible is to not take away the readers' attention from less numerous but equally or even more relevant links. I'm not seeing that problem in this article. So in my opinion, the convenience provided by these additional links slightly outweighs the aesthetic displeasure their presence causes. An unorthodox solution would be to color all but the first links black without actually delinking the teams. Or you could simply make the table sortable.  Good raise  06:03, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Well okay so keep the linking it is then? Disc Wheel  ( Malk  +  Montributions )  03:09, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Try here perhaps?  Good raise  05:49, 1 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Support the list on prose and images. Still not wild about the linking, but the MOS doesn't proscribe any particular method for lists — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:52, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment: Are all the players who have played in the NFL/AFL linked, or just the ones that currently have articles? Wizardman  18:32, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Just the players that have articles are linked. Disc Wheel ( Malk  +  Montributions )  22:59, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Per WP:NGRIDIRON they are almost certainly notable if they played at least one game and thus could be linked — Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:52, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
 * They don't have to be linked and personally a ton of red links are annoying to see on the page, so I'm going to pass on linking those without pages that have played games. Disc Wheel ( Malk  +  Montributions )  12:34, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
 * I'd much prefer the links added but it's no big deal. By the way Eric Blount needs to be linked, since he's not. That's basically why I'm pushing for the links, since they'll be filled in one day. Wizardman  03:22, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Linked. Disc Wheel ( Malk  +  Montributions )  15:32, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
 * One more comment, actually, then I can finally support: Refs 3 and 4 are exactly the same: combine them. Wizardman  17:31, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Doneski. Disc Wheel  ( Malk  +  Montributions )  18:48, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
