List of Roman Catholic archbishops of Quebec

 * Nominator(s): Bloom6132 (talk) 23:54, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I feel its structure and formatting mirrors the other lists I have successfully nominated to FL (e.g. bishops of Hong Kong, archbishops of Vancouver and Toronto), and it now meets all 6 FL criteria. —Bloom6132 (talk) 23:54, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Support - I tried really hard to find anything to pick you up on but failed utterly :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:28, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Support A really solid article. The only thing I noticed, and this is quite a stretch, is that you linked "cardinal" in one of the captions, but you didn't link any other positions in any other captions. ~ HAL  333  01:36, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for pointing that out. I've un-linked it now for consistency's sake. —Bloom6132 (talk) 02:38, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, is there a latin term for the position that you could put in the IB, like at Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Quebec? ~ HAL  333  18:07, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It'd be Archiepiscopus Quebecensis, but it's not in widespread use nowadays (the results on Google Books all date to documents issued before the 1960s). And it messes up the infobox (I tried it with this edit) because I think the Latin parameter is only intended for articles on arch/dioceses (and not arch/bishops). —Bloom6132 (talk) 20:55, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh, well. ~ HAL  333  22:48, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

Comments from Harrias

 * Add a short description.
 * Added. —Bloom6132 (talk) 15:37, 6 July 2020 (UTC)


 * The lead image could do with a caption, just to clarify that it is of Lacroix.
 * Done. —Bloom6132 (talk) 15:37, 6 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Both images in the infobox need alt text.
 * Done. —Bloom6132 (talk) 15:37, 6 July 2020 (UTC)


 * The infobox mentions the Cathedral-Basilica of Notre-Dame de Québec, but this is not referenced, nor does it appear in the prose or table.
 * Added ref (re-used from lead). —Bloom6132 (talk) 15:37, 6 July 2020 (UTC)


 * "..held the position for seven months (1925–26)..": Non-abbreviated years are generally preferred.
 * Fixed. —Bloom6132 (talk) 15:37, 6 July 2020 (UTC)


 * I am confused about why, if Jean-Baptiste de La Croix de Chevrières de Saint-Vallier was appointed on July 7, 1687, François de Laval did not resign until January 24, 1688?
 * According to Laval's DCB bio (ref 6), "When his resignation had been accepted, Bishop Laval agreed to remain bishop of Quebec until the consecration of his successor, Abbé Saint-Vallier". That occurred on January 25, 1688 (the day after Laval's resignation became official).  I've added a footnote (like the ones below) to clarify the situation – hope that works. —Bloom6132 (talk) 21:48, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Could you add the footnote to de Laval's resignation date, and make what is in that quote clear: that he agreed to stay on after his resignation? The current footnote that was added, "Saint-Vallier received episcopal consecration on January 25, 1688." wouldn't help me if you hadn't explained it. Harrias  talk 08:12, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Added. Would you like me to remove the other footnote on Saint-Vallier's date of consecration? —Bloom6132 (talk) 10:26, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
 * If you feel it is superfluous, feel free to remove it, but I'm happy with both coexisting. Harrias  talk 11:05, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

That's it from me on the prose and the table. As those above have said, a very well put together article. I will claim WikiCup points for this review, and would appreciate it if you would consider reviewing List of winners of the Boston Marathon (FLC). Harrias talk 14:39, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
 * thanks for the comments! I hope they've been addressed satisfactorily. —Bloom6132 (talk) 21:48, 6 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Support, all my concerns have been resolved. Nice work. Harrias  talk 11:05, 7 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Support my concerns addressed. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!&#33;!&#33;) 17:09, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

if you are of the opinion that this nom is close to passing, could I please trouble one of you to give this a dedicated source review? Cheers! —Bloom6132 (talk) 08:46, 18 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Source review – All of the references used in the article appear reliable and well-formatted, and the link-checker tool shows no dead links. My source review has been passed. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:21, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
