United States presidential elections in Arizona

 * Nominator(s): Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 11:58, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I feel that these types of lists on United States presidential elections have a great potential to be FL. I almost completely re-formatted the list, added a lead, and key for political parties. It lists all the elections in which Arizona participated, with votes and percentage. I would respond to every comment, and try to bring this nomination to FL standards whenever needed. With one of the list (United States presidential elections in Alaska) currently a FLC, with a support, and reviewer's concerns have been substantially addressed, I nominate this too. Thanks!

Comments from ChrisTheDude

 * "William Howard Taft was on the fourth position" => "William Howard Taft finished fourth" or "William Howard Taft finished in fourth position", but not what you have currently (same in note b)
 * Is there any way to avoid having four consecutive sentences starting with "In the 19xx presidential election"?
 * "Since the 1952 presidential election, Arizona was considered" => "Since the 1952 presidential election, Arizona has been considered"
 * Notes c and d need full stops
 * That's what I got -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:01, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * @ Done all. Thanks again!  Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 05:22, 13 October 2021 (UTC)

Two small things: — RunningTiger123 (talk) 03:07, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Given its notability, it might be worth linking 2021 Maricopa County presidential ballot audit somewhere in the lead. (Of course, we also have a lot of coverage of the 2020 election in the lead, so if it can't be noted in just a few words, it might be better to keep it out.)
 * "recent political realignment led to Arizona becoming a swing state" → "recent political realignment has led some to consider Arizona as a swing state" (hedges a bit, but one election probably isn't enough to determine long-term trends)
 * @ Done the second one, left the first point, as we already have lot about 2020. Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 10:17, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Like Alaska, start the article with its topic, it doesn't need to be pointed out what region the state is in.
 * Removed. Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 14:36, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
 * "percentage of vote share" is redundant since vote share is implied to be a percentage.
 * Removed 'percentage' Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 14:36, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
 * "by 42.92%" implies a margin so "a margin of" is superfluous.
 * Removed 'a margin of' Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 14:36, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
 * @ Done, thanks again!  Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 14:36, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

 * @ May I just bring to your notice that this has been promoted without a formal Source review. Now, in various other lists which you promoted without an source review, you mentioned that "Source review pass, promoting". Is that the same case here? Thanks anyways!  Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 14:01, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks, yeah, I did check the sources before promoting. -- Pres N  14:34, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
