List of number-one hip hop albums of 2017 (Germany)

 * Nominator(s):  Lirim  |  Talk  00:52, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

Hello, this is my fourth list up as an FLC; I think it meets all the criteria. It's stable, the lead is long enough and gives enough information, five pictures are enough and the table should be alright. (All in my opinion obviously). Best regards,  Lirim  |  Talk  00:52, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

Oppose for now. It's a good start to the list, but this page needs a lot of work to bring it up to featured list standard. The second paragraph has no citations, there are odd typos "Th first album to top the chart". There are no links to other years. Sentences do not make sense: "The hip hop charts only include albums and were introduced on 1 April 2015". What about albums introduced on April 2? Why 2015 since this is a list for 2017? What exactly makes it "on the charts", is it record sales? If so, how many? Images on the right should have a caption per image. Images don't have alt text. That's just a 2 minute glance.

 * Comments
 * "The official German hip hop album charts are record charts"=>"The official German hip hop album chart is a record chart"
 * You have partially fixed this, but you still have "charts" not "chart"
 * "The year opened with Palmen aus Plastik by German rapper Bonez MC and Austrian rapper RAF Camora[3] and was replaced in the following week" => "The first number one of the year was Palmen aus Plastik by German rapper Bonez MC and Austrian rapper RAF Camora,[3] which was replaced the following week"
 * You have partially fixed this but you still have "and was replaced" when it should be "which was replaced"
 * "The sampler album topped the chart for four consecutive weeks in summer." => "The sampler album topped the chart for four consecutive weeks during the summer."
 * "Royal Bunker, Jung Brutal Gutaussehend 3 and Revival" - Revival needs to be in italics too. Also you need to state who these albums are by, not just list the title.
 * "Generally it was dominated by German artists" => "The chart was dominated by German artists"
 * "with only four english albums reaching the top" => "with only four English-language albums reaching the top" (none of the acts in question are English)
 * "four english albums reaching the top, including" - you can't say "including" and then list them all, so replace "including" with "namely"
 * Not fixed
 * "Revival also was the last album to reach the top in December." => "Revival was the final album to reach the top in 2017."
 * In the image caption "non German" should be "non-German"
 * In the table, the scopes should be the album titles, not the dates
 * The table should be sortable (other than the ref column)
 * In the refs there are repeated uses of "Official german charts" - there should be a capital G on German
 * Are there any more independent sources that could be used? Literally every source bar one is from the official website.
 * Hope this helps -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:42, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
 * It's hard to find other refs. MTV publishes the charts also, but without an archive. Using the official links is the easist way.-- Lirim  |  Talk  13:21, 4 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Photo caption: ".....were the only non-German albums on the chart in 2017." - really? They were the only non-German albums to appear on the chart at all?  Did you mean to say that? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:29, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Let's be honest, this list is not ready for FL. I would like this list and List of number-one hits of 2017 (Germany) to be removed from the nomination page. Just taking up space.-- Lirim  |  Talk  21:15, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
