Vera Farmiga on screen and stage

 * Nominator(s): RedLiquorice (talk) 13:16, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I think it meets the necessary criteria as a comprehensive list of Vera Farmiga's film, television and stage credits, in the same vein as other filmographies that have been given featured list status. RedLiquorice (talk) 13:16, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

Drive-by comments from Slightlymad

 * I made a non-controversial move of the article's title to "Vera Farmiga on screen and stage" since Farmiga has had theatre credits in Broadway. Further, I don't see any coverage of her theatre appearances in the lede. You know the deal.
 * Please fill in those blanks with reliable, high-quality sources.
 * User-generated sites like IMDb (refs. 5, 18) and TV.com (refs. 59, 61) are generally not accepted as reliable sources per WP:UGC and WP:IMDBREF. Please change.


 * Photo is great, but is missing an alt text.
 * There are a decent amount of dead refs or refs that redirect to different links for you to fix.
 * What makes ref. 33 a reliable, high-quality source?
 * Add the |publisher = parameter inline but be vigilant in avoiding overlinking.
 * WL to Understudy


 * Fixed all. Thanks. RedLiquorice (talk) 16:03, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
 * See above. SLIGHTLY  mad   16:08, 18 September 2017 (UTC)


 * Should be fixed now. RedLiquorice (talk) 17:35, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Looks good, support. SLIGHTLY  mad   04:31, 19 September 2017 (UTC)

Support — All concerns addressed. Jimknut (talk) 20:38, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

Comment this is very good indeed, all I can find at a quick glance is to reduce the SHOUTING in the ref title (see ref 63) and a malformed template (see ref 56), otherwise excellent. The Rambling Man (talk) 08:15, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Sorted. Thanks. RedLiquorice (talk) 10:17, 12 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Support no more from me. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:18, 12 October 2017 (UTC)

Source review –
 * All of the references are sufficiently reliable, and the only formatting issue I see is that reference 13 still has some all caps.
 * Spot-checks of refs 27, 39, and 47 revealed that the latter two citations don't mention her characters' names. This isn't the first time I've seen this in filmography FLCs, and examples such as these should be fixed before this list gets the star. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:15, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
 * While I'm here, the link-checker now shows no dead links, so no work is needed on that front. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:20, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Swapped out all references for ones including character names. RedLiquorice (talk) 10:42, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I took a look at the replacement source for Closer to the Moon, and that doesn't give the character's last name, which I'm not thrilled with. Checks of a couple other refs (the ones for Source Code and The Judge, and the replacement for Up in the Air) revealed no problems, so I'd be inclined to consider this a pass if something with the last name can be found for Closer to the Moon (or if the last name was removed until a better source can be found). Please keep this issue in the back of your mind if you do other filmographies in the future, though, as being able to verify article content is always vital.

 * Changed source for Closer to the Moon. RedLiquorice (talk) 10:29, 26 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm happy with the new source. As that was my only outstanding comment, the source review can be considered a pass. I'll go ahead and promote the article in a minute. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:08, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
