 * Nominator(s): MisterBee1966 (talk)

I am nominating this article for A-Class review because of the similarities to the List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (A), which is currently under A-Class review as well. The layout and structure is derived from the Oak Leaves lists, the majority of which are featured lists. Thanks for the feedback! MisterBee1966 (talk) 16:52, 26 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Support: looks pretty good to me and not much stands out to me. I have the following comments:
 * according to the Featured article tools there are no dab links and all the ext links appear to work (no action required);
 * the Earwig tool reports no copyright violations: (no action required);
 * there is a possible mix of English variation. For instance, "authorised" (British Commonwealth English) v. "motorized" (typically US English);
 * fixed one MisterBee1966 (talk) 07:46, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * this seems a little awkward: "Heer members received 51 of the medals...". Possibly just say "Heer members received 51 medals..." or "Fifty-one medals were awarded to members of the Heer...";
 * the images lack alt text. It is not a requirement, but you might consider adding it in (suggestion only);
 * something for FL :-) MisterBee1966 (talk) 07:46, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * you might consider adding some citations to the works listed in the Further reading section in order to expand the reference base, however, as the article content appears to represent the body of the literature available on the topic, it is probably not required (suggestion only).

 * Oppose . Prose looks good and I support on other grounds, but I'd question the way that the first paragraph has been referenced. It uses a single citation, Fellgiebel 2000, pp. 113–460, 483, 485–487, 499, 501, 503, 509. While I'm sure that Fellgiebel does state the information contained in the paragraph, I don't think its helpful to cite 353 pages of a book this way without breaking the reference up amongst the separate sentences. In purely practical terms, if I wanted to confirm that "The Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross was awarded for a wide range of reasons and across all ranks, from a senior commander for skilled leadership of his troops in battle to a low ranking soldier for a single act of extreme gallantry," I'm being asked to read all of those 353 pages looking for that piece of information, which might take a while, when I suspect it is really just stated on one or two of those pages... End of paragraph references can usually work well, but in this case I really think it needs tweaking. I'd be very happy to support if this could be fixed. Hchc2009 (talk) 07:26, 26 June 2011 (UTC)
 * done I introduced "Williamson and Bujeiro" who give a nice summary on two pages. MisterBee1966 (talk) 10:06, 26 June 2011 (UTC)
