List of Knight&

 * Nominator(s): MisterBee1966 (talk)

I am nominating this article for A-Class review unsure if it meets the criteria. Unlike the other lists, this list only contains 7 entries, which makes this list rather small. However, the neighbouring lists (P) and (R) are rather large (+300 entries). This list is similar in structure to the List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (A), (C), (U) and (V), all A-class at the moment, and (I), (J) and (O) which are currently under A-Class review. The layout and structure is derived from the Oak Leaves lists, the majority of which are featured lists. Thanks for the feedback! MisterBee1966 (talk) 17:38, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Announcement I am on vacation until early September! I will address your potential concerns with the article after I am back. MisterBee1966 (talk) 06:57, 11 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Eisfbnore comments


 * In the lead - could you use brackets instead of an endash to introduce the English translation of Fellgiebel's book? Also, I'm not quite sure whether ′tis a good idea to have the full title with translation in the lead prose; perhaps shorten it and move the full title w/ translation to a footnote?
 * Hm, this matches the lead of all the other A-class list of the same topic. Let's see what the others think please MisterBee1966 (talk) 12:35, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Also, shouldn't the title follow English capitalisation rules? Eisfbnore    &bull; talk   05:51, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I thought names are capitalized in English? Is that not the case? "Knight's Cross" and "Iron Cross" are names. MisterBee1966 (talk) 07:00, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I was thinking of changing The bearers of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross 1939–1945 — The owners of the highest award of the Second World War to The Bearers of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross 1939–1945 — The Owners of the Highest Award of the Second World War as 'tis a title .

 * Yes, I think you might be right with this suggestion. MisterBee, what do you think of this? Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 04:48, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Agree! Done MisterBee1966 (talk) 01:19, 4 September 2011 (UTC)


 * "A total of 7,322 awards were made" - awards are given, aren't they?
 * Hm, not sure. Let's wait for othrs to comment as well MisterBee1966 (talk) 12:39, 8 August 2011 (UTC)


 * "These 7,322 recipients" →"The 7,322 recipients" as it is quite obvious who you are talking about. Also, "these" would AFAIK imply that you should have mentioned them in the previous sentence.

 * Per the template doc of cite web, it is not necessary to state that the format is html nor that the language is English.

 * On another note, is it this page that you want to link to? Eisfbnore    &bull; talk   05:51, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Otherwise it looks great, and the sources are very consistently formatted. Eisfbnore   &bull; talk   09:19, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Seems I'm incorrect on this, per the comment below. Anotherclown (talk) 13:43, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

Support This is a sortable table, no telling what entry might come up first.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 18:39, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Support: no major issues for me. I note (and support) Eisfbnore's suggestion regarding the capitalisation of the title above, though, but it is not major enough for me not to support. Keep up the good work. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 04:48, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

Support on prose per standard disclaimer. These are my edits. - Dank (push to talk) This was Aug 26 ... forgot to sign.
