List of Prime Ministers of India

 * Nominator(s): Yashthepunisher (talk) 13:43, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Back in the FLC after six month stint. This is my second politics-related list and probably one of the most important one. As always, feel free to leave constructive feedbacks. Thank you. Yashthepunisher (talk) 13:43, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Initial comments:
 * 'Sworn in' doesn't need a hyphen
 * Prime minister does not need to be capitalized per MOS:CAPS. It is a common noun unless part of a name.
 * "youngest premier, and the third" doesn't need a comma
 * "Thus far" is unnecessary (duh, we're not talking as of another time), and the exact number of days may be overly precise for that.
 * The color key is unnecessary - every row in the table has the party right next to the color already!
 * The symbols could go in the footnotes rather than a key (but other thoughts on this may differ); №, if not already a well-known abbreviation or obvious from the context, could be labeled with a tooltip instead.
 * The smaller text size for the date on top of a normal-sized year does not look good, just keep it all the same size.
 * Sorting the Term of Office column sorts the first date alphabetically! (1 June, 10 November, 10 October...)
 * The Number and Lk Sabha columns also sort incorrectly. Reywas92Talk 23:59, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
 * All done but I can't figure out the sortings. Yashthepunisher (talk) 12:47, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Try Template:Sort and Template:Sortname (the names should sort by surname not first. You didn't have to remove the colors altogether if you think they make sense to have (idk if they've been adopted as widely/uniformly in India as those in other countries); I was just saying the key was unnecessary since it's redundant to the party name column.

 * I will work on sorting soon. Give me some time. - Vivvt ( Talk ) 12:06, 11 February 2019 (UTC)
 * All done now, thanks to Vivvt. Also I don't think the color keys are necessary at all. Thank you for the comments. Yashthepunisher (talk) 12:36, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Fixed sorting for Number, Name, Appointed by, and Loksabha. I have also made some minor changes. Let me know if anything else is remaining. All the Best! - Vivvt ( Talk ) 17:50, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I'd put the table footnotes in the Notes section, otherwise I Support. Reywas92Talk 02:09, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Done. Thanks. Yashthepunisher (talk) 19:38, 15 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Support – honestly can't find anything wrong. Great job to you! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 17:36, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you Yashthepunisher (talk) 18:08, 16 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Support: Everything looks good to me. It is a very important list, and as someone is completely ignorant of India's history, I was still able to follow everything clearly and understand it. I was a little confused on why certain numbers above ten are sometimes represented in numerals (i.e. whose 19-month term also ended in death) and in other times, they are represented through words (i.e. India has had fourteen prime ministers, fifteen including), but it is not a major issue in my opinion. Wonderful work with this! Aoba47 (talk) 20:12, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you Yashthepunisher (talk) 22:16, 22 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Support my concerns addressed. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:15, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Source review: I'm leery of citing an encyclopedia for the INC (I) name change, but checking WP:TERTIARY I guess it's okay. Promoting. -- Pres N  19:32, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
