List of awards and nominations received by Jorge Drexler

 * Nominator(s): Javier Espinoza (talk) 17:38, 23 April 2015 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because it was modeled after several "award and nominations" lists. The subject is Jorge Drexler, an Uruguayan singer-songwriter, who received the Academy Award among other accolades. I will be watching your comments closely. Thanks.

Support per my addressed comments on the talk page. Erick (talk) 18:54, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Javier Espinoza (talk) 20:02, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

Quick comment I think you should remove indiscriminate award (e.g. Shock Awards). Well-sourced list nonetheless. HĐ (talk) 04:01, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
 * What if I create the article for the Shock Awards?.Javier Espinoza (talk) 04:08, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't see the point of removing the Shock Awards to begin with when the purpose of the list is list every award and nomination the artist received. Erick (talk) 19:01, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

Support Really good work! I also nominated a list recently. It would be great if you could take a look at it and leave some comments here :) Littlecarmen (talk) 15:42, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Oppose for now
 * is an Uruguayan singer-songwriter who has received awards and nominations for his contributions to the music industry. - First, it's "a Uruguayan" (it's pronounced with a hard U, according to the Uruguay article). Second, who is he, exactly? You say "his contributions" but don't actually say what they are in the opening sentence.
 * I expanded the lead to include, please let me know if that is enough. Javier Espinoza (talk) 20:03, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Again, you don't mention what they are in the opening sentence. It works a bit better now that you include the first album, however.


 * He received the first Academy Award awarded to Uruguay for the song "Al Otro Lado del Río", written for the film The Motorcycle Diaries (2005). The track earned the Academy Award for Best Original Song, and received Latin Grammy and World Soundtrack Awards nominations. - I suspect that this could be rewritten to avoid repeating "Academy Award", and to combine the two sentences.
 * Fixed. Javier Espinoza (talk) 20:03, 18 May 2015 (UTC)


 * for the latter album, he won the award for Best Singer-Songwriter Album at the Latin Grammy Awards - when? To do this, I'd include the release years of the four albums mentioned in parentheses.
 * Fixed. Javier Espinoza (talk) 20:03, 18 May 2015 (UTC)


 * The song "Universos Paralelos", performed with Chilean performer Ana Tijoux, earned the singer a second Latin Grammy for Record of the Year. - Again, unclear when this was — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:54, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Javier Espinoza (talk) 20:03, 18 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Looks good now. Striking my oppose. I'll promote within a week, if nobody else has done so by then. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:20, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
