Nominator(s): Kosack (talk) 21:19, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because I have expanded and completed the list to meet FL criteria, using the already promoted English and Scottish lists as a guide. Kosack (talk) 21:19, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

;Comments from BeatlesLedTV
  • 14 → fourteen per MOS:NUM Done
  • "have scored three goals (a hat-trick) or more in a game" → "have scored a hat-trick (three goals) or more in a game" Done
  • The website 11vs11.com is actually 11v11.com. Make sure to change this in every ref as it would also be consistent with the list's use of 'v' instead of 'vs'. Done
  • Link BBC Sport in ref 3 - Done
  • Change "Ref" → "Ref(s)" in table two Done
  • Move the key above the "Hat-tricks for Wales" heading
  • "in a UEFA Euro..." – should it be 'a' or 'an'?

Everything else looks good to me. Great job! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 23:22, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@BeatlesLedTV: Thanks very much for the review, I've fixed all of the above issues apart from the last two. Moving the key above the heading also inadvertently moves it above the contents list when the page is generated and looks rather odd. The Scottish list has the key in the same place, perhaps for the same reason. I could give it a level two heading but that would seem like overkill for one small box. Also, I think it should be a rather than an prior to the UEFA Euro qualifier. Kosack (talk) 07:42, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

*"Jack Doughty against Ireland in 1888 Mel Charles against Northern Ireland in 1962 and Ian Edwards against Malta in 1978." Whether or not you use the serial comma, you need at least one more comma in this sentence.
  • Some ref authors aer given as first last, some as last, first. Consistency please.

@Courcelles: Thanks for the review, I've amended the two issues raised above. Kosack (talk) 21:11, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
  • I would make the intro a touch broader, e.g. "Wales played their first international match... the first hat-trick for Wales was scored by ... in ..., As of, x hat-tricks have been scored by Welsh internationals..."
  • "scored four goals during a match " why "during a match" when it's on the same date.
  • "The most recent player" caveat with "As of".
  • Result column seems to sort okay for home games, but away games, you get odd stuff like "0-6" followed by "4-6" followed by "0-6" etc, and "0-3" followed by "2-3" followed by "1-3"...
  • Quick question I've been meaning to ask lots of people doing these kinds of list (myself included), what makes 11v11.com a reliable source?

@The Rambling Man: Thanks for reviewing, I've sorted the issues you raised above. In regards to 11v11.com, the website is the official site of the Association of Football Statisticians. There's a very brief info section on the site HERE in which they also state that most football club statisticians are members of the organisation. Kosack (talk) 08:38, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Kosack, best Wikipedia-football-sourcing-news I've had all day. Much appreciated. I support this candidate. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:46, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
