List of awards and nominations received by Taylor Swift

 * Nominator(s): FrankBoy   CHITCHAT 14:58, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Not sure what else to say other than Taylor Swift is one of the most popular singer-songwriters of the world, and has received many many awards. I have excluded the non-notable awards. I believe it satisfies the Featured list criteria. I will try to address reviewers' comments with the best of my ability.

Note: In the list, I have considered some awards had nominations (although they didn't), such as 4 Guinness awards out of 4 nominations, to avoid confusing the readers. -- FrankBoy   CHITCHAT 14:58, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Support: The prose looks great, the references are reliable, and the awards are organized. If there are problems, someone else could spot them, but I'm basing off of my experience and rules I remember. So there you have it.

 * Thanks Birdie for voting. -- FrankBoy   CHITCHAT 19:32, 2 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Support And another. I don't remember the last time I supported a FLC without comment on the first read. Top work; engaging prose, brilliant references, and plenty of content! Harrias talk 14:46, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you Harrias for reviewing. :) -- FrankBoy  CHITCHAT 14:58, 3 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Comment: It has been a very long time since I promoted a list to FL status or even formally reviewed an FL candidate. Therefore, I do not wish to formally support or oppose this list's promotion. I have not reviewed any of the content for accuracy, but I did review the linking, formatting, manual of style and find this list to be of great quality. I did make many minor edits to comply with Wikipedia's manual of style (see this diff). If I had any feedback, I would suggest moving the "with Taylor Lautner" notes in the Teen Choice section to the "Recipient / Nominated work" column (as a subscript). I also notice that some sections note the number of awards received from X nominations, while others do not. This is inconsistent. All being said, this list looks great and if it is not already FL-worthy, it is mighty close. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 20:38, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I have addressed your comments, including the "inconsistent" thing; I have added from x nominations where she has won and has also been nominated (without winning). Thank you for taking time to review it. -- FrankBoy  CHITCHAT 21:31, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you for making these changes to the list. Best of luck with the nomination! --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 21:35, 3 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Comment&mdash;I may do a more detailed review later if I have the time. Just a few quick observations:
 * Considering that Swift has had such a decorated career, could we perhaps have a more catchy and relevant lead sentence? I'm thinking something along the lines of "The American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift has won more than 220 awards from over 460 nominations. She has received seven Grammy Awards...". That way you attract readers and establish the topic of the article, in the most objective way possible.
 * According to MOS:NUM, "Comparable quantities should be all spelled out or all in figures." Thus, throughout the article, when quantifying accolades, use either figures (1, 2, 3, etc.) or words (one, two, three, etc.), but not both. For example, you can say "She has won seven Grammys and sixteen AMAs" but not "She has won seven Grammys and 18 AMAs". This rule generally overrides the "rule of thumb" (that only single-digit numbers are spelled out).
 * I understand these comments may be contradictory to what you have observed or gotten away with in previous FLs, but I'm confident that they better the list and make it more appealing for the main page, if you ever intend to nominate it for TFL. All in all great job on this list! The Wikipedian Penguin 00:37, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you for taking time to review it. I have corrected the above points you have mentioned. -- FrankBoy  CHITCHAT 10:04, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Support – I am very happy to provide my support for the list as it is an exemplary work by FrB.TG. I made minor reference modifications using a script here, but other than that there is no point to complain about. Maybe one minor, the display image, can something where Swift is holding an award be used? — Indian: BIO  [ ChitChat ] 05:43, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
 * PS, I also corrected the whitespace and dash problems.
 * Another point, the Time 100 Award is missing, where Swift was listed.
 * References to Blogspot and About.com should go away.


 * FrB.TG, you sir really know how to make good quality lists! All I have to say is check the links, find something that isn't blogspot (even if from YouTube) for the YouTube Music Awards, and use a picture where Swift is holding an award or at least attending an award ceremony if possible.

 * Thank you both, IndianBio and for looking at it. I have addressed the comments by you. --  FrankBoy  <small style="font-size:85%;">CHITCHAT 10:01, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Sure thing. I can now gladly support! <b style="color:#454545">Snuggums</b> (<b style="color:#454545">talk</b> / <b style="color:#454545">edits</b>) 13:22, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
