List of World Heritage Sites in Switzerland

 * Nominator(s): Tone 21:16, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

Switzerland has 12 WHS and two tentative sites (for some reason, one is listed twice in the tentative list, but I am keeping it unified). The style is consistent with other WHS lists that have been recently promoted. Lists for Poland and Belarus both already have quite some support, so I feel it is time to add a new nomination.

Comments by Alexandra
 * The alt text for the map is, bizarrely, "List of World Heritage Sites in Switzerland is located in Switzerland"
 * I think this is an intrinsic feature of the location map. No idea how to fix it. Usually, it probably makes sense, as in "Paris is located in France".
 * Consider forcing a table of contents with to allow readers to immediately skip to the tentative list or the references – the wiki software only automatically generates one when a page has a minimum of four headings, but it is often helpful to include one anyway on pages with longer but few sections (ie lists)
 * Done.
 * The Convent of Müstair is a Christian monastery from the Carolingian period, it was founded around 775. Either I'm reading this incorrectly, or you'd need an "and" (or a semicolon) - "Carolingian period, and was founded..."
 * Done.
 * I don't know if this is my non-native, non-zoologist English vocabulary betraying me, but I would expect at least bivalves, ammonites, echinoderms to be linked. Possibly crustaceans as well for consistency if you link the other three.
 * Makes sense, linked.
 * overcoming a number of technical challenges Is "a number of" necessary, considering "challenges" already indicates plural?
 * Removed.
 * As of 2020, Switzerland had two such sites on its tentative list. [2] Extraneous space
 * Fixed.
 * Please ping me when you have addressed the above or if you have any questions. Thank you!--AlexandraIDV 02:13, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Fixed, thank you! --Tone 06:34, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Excellent, I have confirmed that the issues above are resolved. I did add alt text for the map myself with the alt parameter, feel free to change the wording if you wish. If you have the time to do a review in return, I have two FLCs up right now (but don't feel pressured to): Vampire books and Changeling books.--AlexandraIDV 07:12, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Comments Support from Gerald Waldo Luis
A casual list that complies with MOS:LIST and has citations where appropriate. I archived unarchived sources and added an image to the last part of the list. I'll modify the layout of the references, but I have some comments.


 * I suggest linking List of World Heritage Sites at the words "the list," paragraph 1, lead.
 * "As of 2020, there are two sites on the tentative list"-- suggest removing "As of 2020" as it is repeated above.
 * Transnational sites are colored blue, which gives enough identification of transnational sites. So why needing a *? This also gives the brief legend at the top of the list an awkward look, with the * placed in the middle.

 * - accessibility requirements state that colour by itself cannot be used to indicate something, as some people may not be able to see it, thus a symbol is required as well -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 1ibility2:31, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * , I placed the * inside the colored box. That work for you?  Gerald WL  13:36, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Fine by me :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:43, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * And, not so related to FL criteria, but this article cannot be displayed a preview. I suspect the entire article being embedded in a table as the cause. Mind explaining why the entire article is in a table?  Gerald WL  14:20, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * No idea, sorry. I've never edited this article..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 14:24, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Apologies. Nominator, any ideas?  Gerald WL  14:32, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * No ideas about the preview. The article is mostly tables, but this is the style of these articles. I delinked the Lists of WHS because I think the link is rather useless. We link the WHS article which is on the other hand rather informative. I like the * edit, good idea! --Tone 14:45, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

Re-checked it twice: other than the need for a picture at the last row, everything seemed fine. Support.  Gerald WL  17:43, 17 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Source review – The reliability and formatting of the referencing look okay, and the link-checker tool shows no concerns. No problems to report on the sourcing front. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 23:40, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
