Madonna filmography

 * Nominator(s): Bluesatellite (talk) 04:29, 12 April 2014 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it meets FL requirements. Bluesatellite (talk) 04:29, 12 April 2014 (UTC)


 * In the lead, "She had campaigned for the role for nearly ten years and, in December 1994, she wrote a four-page, handwritten letter to director Alan Parker explaining that she would be perfect to play the role." would read better as just "She had campaigned for the role for nearly ten years. In December 1994, she hand-wrote a four-page letter to director Alan Parker explaining how she would be perfect for the role."
 * Implemented. — Indian: BIO  · [ ChitChat  ] 04:48, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Try merging the years into one bit for films, so for example it looks something like this:
 * {| class="wikitable plainrowheaders"

! scope="col"|Title ! scope="col"|Year
 * Vision Quest
 * rowspan="2"|1985
 * Desperately Seeking Susan
 * }
 * This is discouraged per WP:FILMOGRAPHY, "Please avoid rowspan as it is a significant accessibility issue—as you can hear at User:RexxS/Accessibility", and it does cause problems with the sorting. — Indian: BIO  · [ ChitChat  ] 04:48, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
 * My bad, never mind. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 04:54, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Include an overall rating average from critics (i.e. Rotten Tomatoes scoring) for each film in "feature films", "short films", and "theatrical plays" where available
 * I went up to random filmographies and could not see this being present. Have you seen this in any other filmography or is this a personal preference? The critical part is said in the lead itself and including another column just to repeat it seems redundant. — Indian: BIO  · [ ChitChat  ] 04:48, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I was thinking of specific average ratings (i.e. 36% approval ratings), but it was just a suggestion. Don't have to do it if you don't want. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 04:56, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
 * In "Television" section, just link Saturday Night Live once and merge the appearances/creator(s) to have something like this:
 * {| class="wikitable plainrowheaders"

! scope="col"|Title ! scope="col"|Year ! scope="col"|Creator(s)
 * rowspan="2"| Saturday Night Live
 * 1985
 * rowspan="2"| Lorne Michaels
 * 1986
 * }
 * The comment about rowspan is same as above, and about the overlink, if you scroll over you can see that each of these links are for different seasons not the same one. — Indian: BIO  · [ ChitChat  ] 04:48, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
 * My mistake. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 04:54, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Thanks a lot Krimuk90 and AB01, appreciate your diligent comments and the list is improved now. — Indian: BIO  · [ ChitChat  ] 07:03, 22 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Everything looks good to me! Happy to support. Great job! — Status  ( talk  ·  contribs ) 02:41, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

Comment it's really weird that music videos aren't mentioned at all, especially given that commercials have their own table. If they are dealt with in another article, you should have a note at the top, "for a list of her music videos, see this".—indopug (talk) 05:16, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
 * , the article Madonna videography covers this and I will add the hatnote as suggested. Thanks. — Indian: BIO  · [ ChitChat  ] 18:06, 4 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Congrats to both and ! XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 21:48, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
