Darwin Medal

 * Notified: Ironholds, WikiProject Awards

This is a FL from an old 2009 nomination, back when the rules weren't as stringent. The entire list is based on one primary source, and it lacks quite a lot of background information available on the internet. Wretchskull (talk) 11:04, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi @: I am willing to work here, and will try to add citation in a next few days. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 09:50, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for taking the initiative! I highly recommend you structure the lede after the most recent Royal Society medal featured list, the Milner Award; the rest of the FLs are relatively outdated. You can most likely find reliable sources by going to the respective institutions of each recipient (if they have been in one) and search for relevant key words about the subject. You do not have to add images if you do not want to; I'll perhaps take care of that later if I have time. Wretchskull (talk) 11:35, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Images added, will add ALT text soon. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 20:23, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

Update: @ et. al — I feel that at this point, I have fixed almost all the issues in the article. Just for comparison, I have updated the article from this version to this version. I feel that in its present stage, the article meets the FL criteria. What do you think? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:03, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Impressive work ! This article is indeed worthy of being kept. Wretchskull (talk) 19:16, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

It is not up to the nominator to close their FLRCs; that is up to the director/delegates to determine if the list meets standards. Please do not close nominations yourself. -- Pres N  19:26, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Ah my bad! I misread that Featured list candidates/Instructions only apply to delegates; apologies! Wretchskull (talk) 19:29, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I have a minor disagreement here. I think director/delegates determine whether there is a consensus to keep or delist. Reviewers (not coordinators) determine if the list meets the standards. The latter in done by the coordinators in case of less participation. In either case, nominators should not close the nominations, coordinators should. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 17:11, 10 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep The page doesn't rely entirely on a single source anymore. There is at least one source for each entry. User:Wretchskull: Thank you for nominating this page for delisting; without your nomination, there won't have been any attempt to improve the page. :-) User:Kavyansh.Singh: Thank you for the great work!

Closing as kept; nominator concerns addressed, and I'm not seeing anything else that wasn't brought up. -- Pres N  14:47, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
