List of accolades received by The Shape of Water

 * Nominator(s): Birdienest81  talk  08:30, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

The Shape of Water 2017 American romantic fantasy film directed by Guillermo del Toro and written by del Toro and Vanessa Taylor. It stars Sally Hawkins, Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Doug Jones, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Octavia Spencer. Set in Baltimore, Maryland in 1962, the story follows a mute cleaner at a high-security government laboratory who falls in love with a captured humanoid amphibian creature. The film won four Academy Awards including Best Picture at the 2018 ceremony. This is my fifth film accolades list to be nominated for featured list status, and I largely based the format off of the accolades lists for The Artist, The Big Short, 1917, and Slumdog Millionaire which were promoted in October 2015, January 2021, November 2020, and June 2021, respectively. I will gladly accept your comments to improve this list. Birdienest81 talk  08:30, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

Comments
 * "romantic dark fantasy film" sea of blue. And not sure that "dark" is appropriately linked in any case.
 * Fixed: Removed the word "dark" to now read "Romantic fantasy film" with romantic fantasy wikilinked per the film's main article.


 * "...featured roles.[2]" referenced yet "... the production design." not?
 * Fixed: Used TV Guide listing of film's cast and crew for reference.


 * "195 million" non breaking space.
 * Fixed: Added  template between "195" and "million".


 * "The film garnered" garnered is repetitive here.
 * Fixed: Changed second "garnered" to "earned".
 * "winningfor" space.
 * In fact no need for "for".
 * Fixed: Removed the word "for".


 * Ref 2 and ref 49 have spaced hyphens, should be en-dashes.
 * Fixed: Replaced spaced hyphens with en-dashes.

That's a quick pass. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 08:45, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * - Done: I have made corrections based on your comments from up above.

Not much, close enough to support. BTW, I'd appreciate any comments here. Best of luck with this list! Pamzeis (talk) 01:17, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Doug Jones, Michael Stuhlbarg and Octavia Spencer in — add a MOS:SERIAL comma after "Stuhlbarg"
 * acting of its cast — ... what else does the cast do?
 * including Best Picture, Best Director → including Best Picture and Best Director
 * Best Director (Del Toro) — as he is the only director, I think "(Del Toro)" can be removed
 * It was the second fantasy film → It is the second fantasy film (MOS:TENSE)
 * Director and Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score → Director and Best Original Score (the reader will already know it's the Golden Globes)

BTW, I'd appreciate any comments here. Thanks. Pamzeis (talk) 07:34, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
 * - Done: I made all the corrections based on the comments you posted. I was studying for a test and had a toothache. Therefore, my response was delayed a bit.

Image review — Pass

 * The only image (File:Guillermo del Toro in 2017.jpg) appears to be appropriately licenced. Pass for image review. Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 13:31, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

 * "Del Toro" should be written as "del Toro" unless it is at the start of a sentence
 * Link African-American Film Critics Association Awards 2017, Cinema Audio Society Awards 2017, 29th GLAAD Media Awards, and 8th Hollywood Music in Media Awards in dates column
 * Link Cinema Audio Society Award for Outstanding Achievement in Sound Mixing for a Motion Picture – Live Action, Make-Up Artists and Hair Stylists Guild Award for Best Special Make-Up Effects in a Feature-Length Motion Picture, Golden Reel Award for Outstanding Achievement in Sound Editing – Feature Underscore, and Golden Reel Award for Outstanding Achievement in Sound Editing – Sound Effects and Foley for Feature Film in categories column
 * There are a few more awards from IMDb that you could probably add, but at the very least, its Grammy nomination needs to be added
 * Other good awards to add (i.e., awards with established notability that likely have coverage in secondary sources) would be Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation, Ray Bradbury Award, Society of Camera Operators Award for Camera Operator of the Year - Film, Irish Film and Television Awards, Imagen Awards, Japan Academy Film Prize for Outstanding Foreign Language Film, Directors Guild of Canada Awards, and Hollywood Post Alliance Awards
 * - Done: I have read your comments and have made the proper corrections and additions based on them. Please note, Hollywood Post Alliance Awards was changed to Hollywood Professional Association Awards since 2017. Thanks.

Support – I made one small tweak to a category title, but all of the other changes look great! (And thanks for noting the name change; I can't keep up with all of the different award groups nowadays.) RunningTiger123 (talk) 04:57, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

Source review passed; promoting. -- Pres N  20:28, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
