Euro gold and silver commemorative coins (Belgium)

 * Notified: WikiProject Belgium, WikiProject European Union, WikiProject Numismatics

I am nominating this for featured list removal because it's fails on a number of counts: The Rambling Man (talk) 09:02, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Tagged as out of date, a theme running throughout the list.
 * Tables don't meet WP:ACCESS and the embedded "table-in-a-table" approach is really nasty I believe for screenreaders.
 * Minor points such as hyphens being used instaed of en-dashes, MOSNUM fails, Notes and References mixed up.
 * Dead links.


 * Delist as no issues are being addressed, and it does not meet lots of FL criteria. TBrandley 02:33, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment I will try to update the article in the following days. Regards.--Tomcat (7) 21:17, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but this has been nominated for over two weeks now so we'll need to see some immediate improvements. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:26, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, I updated the article. Is work still needed? Regards.--Tomcat (7) 12:02, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
 * You need to check those embedded tables are accessible. I'd suggest poor old User:RexxS (he's very much overworked and very much under loved by us) gives you some advice on whether these tables are really accessible. The Rambling Man (talk) 18:19, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
 * No need to bother our beloved RexxS with such trivial matters. These tables are clearly not accessible. (See MOS:DTT.)  Good raise  16:49, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Only because it does not have the captions? Regards.--Tomcat (7) 15:34, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
 * These tables are made to look good, at the expense of inexperienced editors and readers using alternative methods of viewing Wikipedia. They use table code for layout purposes, which should be avoided wherever possible.  Good raise  00:36, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delist on accessibility grounds alone. The faster the "Imitate me!" sign is removed from this list the better.  Good raise  16:49, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Nope, I am still working on it. Regards.--Tomcat (7) 15:35, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Ok, well as long as that is evident, the nomination can remain open. It's been going for over two months now.  If nothing substantive is done to fix the accessibility in the next week, I'll move to close this FLRC.  The Rambling Man (talk) 18:38, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
 * There are too much outstanding work, plus I am busy in real life. I think withdrawing it and start working on it next year is a good idea. Regards.--Tomcat (7) 00:02, 9 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Suggest an uninvolved director/delegate closes this as delisted given this outcome. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:44, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
