List of awards and nominations received by Bradley Cooper

 * Nominator(s): Famous Hobo (talk) 05:15, 28 February 2016 (UTC)

So my last FLC didn't go so well, and I'm hoping this one will even things out. There's not a whole lot to say about the list, aside from the fact that I used List of awards and nominations received by Leonardo DiCaprio as a role model (as you might quickly notice). It also received a in it's peer review, which I didn't even know was a thing, so that's pretty cool. Anyway, that's all I have to say, so have at it.

 * Support after an exhaustive review. Note that I have also done spot checks in the above comments. --  Frankie talk 16:18, 1 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Why are there 2-+ sections instead of 1-2 tables? Nergaal (talk) 20:11, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean why is this table formatted with each award getting its own section as opposed to what List of awards and nominations received by Laurence Olivier does? If that's the case, then that's personally how I like it. That's also how the DiCaprio list formats it, which I used as a model. If that's not what you were asking, then my apologies. I'm still "relatively" new to lists, and the formatting is still pretty annoying to understand. Famous Hobo (talk) 21:18, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, there are 20+ sections which seems a bit much. Is there a guideline in WP:TV suggesting that this format is better than one with merged tables? At some point I worked on List of accolades received by House which has the lesser-importance awards merged. Nergaal (talk) 17:52, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the late response. While I do agree that the section do become extreme after a while, that's just how most awards and nominations lists are formatted. For example, for actors (Leonardo DiCaprio, Vidya Balan, Priyanka Chopra) and musicians (Taylor Swift, John Legend, Lady Gaga). In particular, Lady Gaga has over 75 sections. As for WP:TV, I couldn't find anything regarding formats for awards lists, but then again I may not have looked hard enough. Famous Hobo (talk) 15:09, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I was going to ask the same question. I'm not sure why personal awards lists have evolved like that - specifically actors. When I worked up List of awards and nominations received by Gene Roddenberry (nominated elsewhere) it didn't even occur to me to split the table up. Admittedly that's a much shorter table - but I have started messing around with List of awards and nominations received by William Shatner which features a much longer table (also doesn't have the military/civilian table split that the Roddenberry one does, also it's very much under development, I need to fix those red links and replace all the inherited IMDB citations). It's the same with film/TV - for some reason the lists use one big table, and the TV ones use multiple little tables. I'd say it was the multiple years, but certainly with the couple I did, the trailers and home media releases caused awards to be won in years other than the year of theatrical release. But like Famous Hobo says, I don't think there is a specific design used and it'll simply be up to what any individual editor thinks is the best representation of the information. Miyagawa (talk) 18:44, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
 * If we're going of personal preference, then I really like this style where each award is given it's own section. While it may be a nightmare for mobile users, I like this design because it specifies what each award is about, and with individual sections, a user won't have to scroll through dozens of random awards to see a specific award, like the Tony Awards or the Academy Awards. By the way Miyagawa, nice subtle promotion of your FLC, I can do a source review if you need one. Famous Hobo (talk) 16:51, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I hadn't intended to hint, but I figured what the hey, I might as well drop it in there! Miyagawa (talk) 19:08, 16 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Remove the colon from "nominations include:"
 * Done


 * "That same year however, Cooper also won a Golden Raspberry Award" → "However, Cooper also won a Golden Raspberry Award that same year"
 * Done


 * I'd say it's worth mentioning the following in the lead:
 * His BAFTA and Golden Globe noms
 * His MTV Movie Awards for "Best Male Performance" in Silver Linings Playbook and American Sniper
 * His SAG win for American Hustle
 * His Satellite Award for Silver Linings Playbook
 * While I do agree that the major films should include more than just the Academy Award nominations, I think that the lead will get a bit excessive and cluttered by adding in all of those nominations. I'll see what I can do.


 * Remove the comma from "he starred in, and co-produced"
 * Done


 * Given that this is an accolades page, is it possible to include a pic of Cooper attending some sort of awards-related event?
 * The only free image I could find of Cooper at an awards ceremony is this one at the 2013 Golden Globes, but personally I'm not a big fan of it since it just looks ... weird. Again, that's my opinion, and I like the lead image as is (not often you can get a direct facial shot like that), but if you like the new image, I can switch it out.


 * In Ref#19 "Critics’ Choice Movie Awards 2013: The Complete Winners List" should be "Critics' Choice Movie Awards 2013: The Complete Winners List" per MOS:QUOTEMARKS
 * Done, I'm impressed you managed to spot that.

Looks pretty good so far. Snuggums (talk / edits) 01:46, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the comments, working on the big one right now. Famous Hobo (talk) 04:31, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
 * , I finally took care of your comments. I didn't include every single major award in the lead, but I think you'll like the changes. Famous Hobo (talk) 02:16, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Looking better. I'd say go with the Golden Globes pic for now, which of course can be replaced with a direct facial shot at an awards-related event if it comes in the future. Snuggums (talk / edits) 02:42, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Done Famous Hobo (talk) 02:46, 7 April 2016 (UTC)


 * I'll now support. Good work. Snuggums (talk</b> / <b style="color:#454545">edits</b>) 02:50, 7 April 2016 (UTC)

Perhaps invite one editor to comment? I really wouldn't want to see this archived due to lack of participation. FrB.TG (talk) 21:39, 26 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Support – Now that the issues above have been taken care of, I'm convinced that the list meets the FL criteria. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 23:16, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
