Mayor of San Diego

 * Nominator(s): mcd51 (talk) 01:53, 18 September 2014 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because it substantially matches the quality of currently the featured list Mayor of San Francisco. mcd51 (talk) 01:53, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Support, article appears to easily meet requirements set forth in WP:FL?, commendation to those who have worked on it to get it there.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 05:20, 18 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Comments from Skr15081997
 * The lead looks too short. More info should be added to it.--Skr15081997 (talk) 02:56, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Why is the party of presidents of boards of trustees not mentioned?
 * Link a few of the publishers in the cite templates.
 * Joshua Bean was the first mayor. Please add his image.

I haven't read the article completely.--Skr15081997 (talk) 03:09, 21 October 2014 (UTC)


 * I've expanded the lead to more closely match Mayor of San Francisco, but I can add more information as necessary.
 * As far as I can tell, the party of the presidents of boards of trustees is not documented in any accessible source, though I've tried to add it where known.
 * Publisher links are now included in the citations where available.
 * This is the only picture of Josh Bean that I've been able to find, though I haven't found any photographs. It can be added if that is the desire: mcd51 (talk) 16:08, 25 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Support, I have read the article again. No more issues found. Nice work.--Skr15081997 (talk) 10:10, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

Comments from Dudley Miles
 * "The previous mayor, Bob Filner, resigned" Confusing as the previous sentence is about the 1880s.
 * "Due to an 1852 bankruptcy, the State of California dissolved the government" Presumably the city went bankrupt only two years after it was incorporated, but it would be helpful to spell this out.
 * "The mayor currently earns" - recentism. The applicable date should be given.
 * Party column in the table. When a table is sortable, all the terms should be linked, not just the first one.
 * A good list - these points are minor. Dudley Miles (talk) 16:20, 2 November 2014 (UTC)


 * I've expanded the article to address these four concerns. Let me know if there's anything else that needs to be addressed mcd51 (talk) 23:32, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Support. A good list. Dudley Miles (talk) 23:35, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
