List of accolades received by David Lynch

 * Nominator(s): GRAPPLE   X  04:27, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

My dog barks some. Mentally, you picture my dog—but I have not told you the type dog which I have. Perhaps you might even picture Toto, from The Wizard of Oz. But I can tell you my dog is always with me.

I believe this list meets the criteria. Having learnt from my previous foray into FLC territory, I've decided to go with something much meatier, as the last attempt faced opposition over criterion 3b. I don't believe this to be an issue here, as this collates information related a wide range of films, television programs and the strange love felt for the man by the French, in a manner which could not simply be shoehorned into any one given article. I've also taken any other relevant feedback from that prior nomination on board with this one (mostly about where to place the table references, although I'm completely open to moving these if it's deemed necessary or preferable).

 * Image review: All used images appear to be free and are properly tagged as such.  Good raise  23:21, 15 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Quick comment – Ref 27 needs a publisher, outside the title. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 03:32, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Got it. Apparently I'd listed the publishers but not actually added the "publisher=" parameter in the template. Oops. GRAPPLE   X  03:37, 19 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Comments from Ruby2010
 * How necessary is it to have Lynch's birth date? (Not used to reading accolade lists for one person, so am unsure if a birth date is the norm)
 * French government "has" not "have"
 * "...then as an Officier in 2009..." Input bolded
 * Not too sure on the lack of references in the article body; Should "The movie exhibits elements of both film noir and surrealism" for example be referenced? Or this one: "can be viewed as both prologue and epilogue to the television series Twin Peaks"?
 * Ref 3: Why no publisher link? Be consistent as to whether you link all publishers, or none.  Ruby  2010/  2013  22:02, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I could remove the birthdate if it's unnecessary, it doesn't bother me either way. As for the referencing, I've bunged in a few more citations for the things you've specified; is there anything else you feel needs to be supported? GRAPPLE   X  22:34, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Looks good. Supporting the promotion of this list to featured status.  Ruby  2010/  2013  22:30, 11 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Support NapHit (talk) 22:15, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Only one thing that I see, and it's not major. In the two sentences on "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me", Kyle MacLachlan's name should be wikilinked.  I know it's wikilinked above in "Blue Velvet", but every actor's name is wikilinked in each movie description, and it seems out of place.
 * Other than that, Support -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 01:28, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I've also left other actors unlinked on their second (and beyond) mentions as well; Harry Dean Stanton, Larua Dern and Ray Wise for example. If you feel I should add the links to all of these then that's fine, I can do that, just pointing it out so you know it's not a one-off instance. GRAPPLE   X  01:34, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Personally I would, but it's not major. I know it could be considered overlinking, but at the same time, Kyle's name *not* being linked jarred me. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 02:52, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Got it. GRAPPLE   X  03:01, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
