List of awards and nominations received by Drake

 * Nominator(s): -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   05:05, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

The nomination before was not promoted due to lack of reviews. The reason why it didn't have any reviews was partially because it wasn't on the nominations urgently needing reviews list. If the nomination is promoted, I can get back to school work, and wikibreak until Winter break! :D -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   05:05, 25 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment—no dab links, but the external links to riaa and http://junoawards.ca/database/artist-summary/?artist_name=Drake&show_details=1 are not working. Ucucha 19:36, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
 * They work on all my browsers (IE, Firefox, Chrome). -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   01:11, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Both are also working for me now. Ucucha 01:14, 27 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - Seems a bit inconsistent. Some sections only have sources in the table, or only have them in the prose. Why? Choose one, the other, or both. Sources and grammar are good, I give my support overall once this problem is assessed and if any other reviewer has no problems with the article.

 * Some respective awards sites have their award winners listed on one single link, while other awards sites list their award winners by category. I can't do any of your options, because like i said, it depends on the sites that I got my sources from. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   05:35, 13 October 2010 (UTC)


 * oppose, the table(s) in this article do not meet the requirements of WP:MOS. If you look at WP:Wikitable you'll see that tables are required to use  --  Lil_℧niquℇ №1  &#124;  talk2me  18:39, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Retracted comments for now... its fairer since I would like to see a mass change that I am making notes on the featured list talk page instead. Sorry for the disruption caused. --  Lil_℧niquℇ №1 &#124;  talk2me  22:34, 19 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Comments
 * The colors in the infobox are annoyingly bright. Perhaps, you could exchange them for the ones used in the rest of the article?
 * The infobox template is used in every awards lists. I like related articles to be consistent with others, so if you would like the colors in the infobox to change, it would be best to talk to WP:MUSIC about that. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * You could certainly talk to them about it, but don't stress yourself. I'm merely pointing out a minor imperfection here. I wouldn't hold back my support just over this.  Good raise  00:33, 22 October 2010 (UTC)


 * The lead is somewhat weak. It's less of a coherent piece of writing and more of a pile of facts grouped into paragraphs. It feels rushed and overly minimalistic.
 * I agree with you that the lead is weak, and I am hoping to fix the lead when my desktop is fixed. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * For what it's worth, it's giving me no pleasure to bring this up in your FLCs time and time again, but I simply can't support nominations with less than exemplary prose. Really am sorry.  Good raise  00:33, 22 October 2010 (UTC)


 * References 39 through 42 are exact duplicates of reference 38 and don't appear to support what they are used to cite.
 * Fixed. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

 Good raise  07:53, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Oppose
 * "He began his acting career in 2001 under his legal name, Aubrey Graham, playing the role of Jimmy Brooks in Degrassi: The Next Generation." - any of that cited?
 * The whole first paragraph is cited by IMDB. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * There is not inline (or any other) IMDB citation in this list. Additionally, iMDB is not reliable. Rambo's Revenge (talk)  11:40, 21 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Please don't be lazy with cites. For Young Artist Award you just give one home page. Cite the five places that reference the awards (also denote if won as Aubrey Graham)
 * Umm...some sites do not list all their awards in different links, which is why I use the link best for the citation. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * This cites nothing. You need to cite the individual pages: 1, 2 etc. Rambo's Revenge (talk)  11:40, 21 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Similarly with the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards
 * Similarly with the above reply. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)


 * BET Awards cites 10–14 are dead to information not verifiable
 * Could you please clarify? -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Try clicking the links! "We're sorry, but something went wrong." Rambo's Revenge (talk)  11:40, 21 October 2010 (UTC)


 * 2010 MOBO Awards nomination completely unreferenced.
 * The section is referenced by the reference in the prose. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Wrong the prose has one reference [31] which cites the 2009 MOBO noms but not the 2010 one. <b style="color:#E32636;">Rambo's Revenge</b> <b style="color:#FFA500;">(talk)</b>  11:40, 21 October 2010 (UTC)


 * "reached the Billboard Hot 100" - you reach #1 but enter the Hot 100 I think
 * I believe that reached can also be used in this case. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Refs 38–42 the same
 * Fixed. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Four Soul Train pendings need refs
 * Done. -- K.Annoyomous   (talk)   04:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay but the prose says he recieved "three nominations". I see another as Aubrey Graham for Un-Thinkable (I'm Ready) but as they don't count it I don't think wiki should (it might be another Aubrey Graham too). <b style="color:#E32636;">Rambo's Revenge</b> <b style="color:#FFA500;">(talk)</b>  11:40, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

So at this stage I'm opposing. <b style="color:#E32636;">Rambo's Revenge</b> <b style="color:#FFA500;">(talk)</b>  16:38, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Have Rambo's concerns been addressed? I will give this a review once they are. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 15:03, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Nope, no replies or action on my comments (list not edited since 21 Oct). <b style="color:#E32636;">Rambo's Revenge</b> <b style="color:#FFA500;">(talk)</b>  20:10, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I also see now that the user has not edited either since the 20th. Oppose and request archiving, unfortunately. Wizardman  Operation Big Bear 20:23, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
