Jessica Simpson discography

 * Notified: Discographies WikiProject

I am nominating this for featured list removal because it is not an accurate representation of Wikipedia's best lists. Large amounts of the lead which discuss the album sales appear to be unsourced. The article needs a copy-edit to properly feature professional prose ("After dropping out of Sony"). The album table lists both the certifications and sales in the same column, some of which are not referenced. The singles table contains eleven countries whereas ten is the requirement. The references are in terrible condition (21, 24, 26, 28, 29, 30, 32 are the worst); some are missing publishers, or are merely bare links to the site. Till 01:35, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Keep – evidenced by the resolved comments above, this list has improved greatly and seems to once again be FL material. Well done. — WP: PENGUIN  · [ TALK ]  08:39, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

And the singles and albums tables have different countries. Till 12:13, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
 * All done, please let me know if there are any remaining issues. And, Till, I don't remember reading that anywhere. Can you link me to a page that says so, please? 五代  (talk) 14:09, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Ask Status. Till 09:55, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I can ask him but I don't quite get it. I don't mean to be rude, you were the one who pointed out the issue. 五代  (talk) 11:22, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
 * You asked for a page that says it, and Status was the one who noted the general issue at The Veronicas discography. So ask him. Till 15:17, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I've asked him although this is the first time I've heard this. 五代  (talk) 11:29, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi Till. Status has said that it's not a requirement for a discography. I think I've addressed all your issues, except this of course. 五代  (talk) 11:05, 11 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Expanding, although preferred by many (and it was at one point a part of the discography guidelines, I guess it was removed at some point) a list cannot be not promoted/not kept as a FL for that reason.  — Statυs  ( talk,  contribs ) 12:22, 11 January 2013 (UTC)
 * So when I have different countries in the tables, it has to be changed, but when someone else has done the same, it's okay to be promoted/kept. Such double standards I see. Till 03:29, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Please don't take it that way Till. As he said, it's not a part of the guideline anymore and that's why I decided not to modify the tables. 五代  (talk) 11:06, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Exactly. All comments are typically from how somebody feels an article should be. As I said, I would prefer them to all be the same, but that's not a part of any FL guidelines. If you didn't change them on The Veronicas discography I would have no reason to oppose its promotion. Also, at that time I thought it was still part of the guideline; I checked again and it has since been removed.  — Statυs  ( talk,  contribs ) 19:19, 12 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep. Although I'd like to see all the same countries used in the tables, for consistency, it's no reason for the list to be removed from its status. Ryoga Godai, you've done a great job with the article!  — Statυs  ( talk,  contribs ) 21:29, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you, both WP and Zach. 五代  (talk) 11:05, 11 January 2013 (UTC)
