:Nominator(s): Birdienest81 (talk) 00:05, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list becauseI have worked on the list for several weeks to comply with Featured list standards. I strongly believe that this list has a potential to become a featured list. I followed closely to how the Academy Award for Best Actor list and Daytime Emmy Award acting lists were formatted. Birdienest81 (talk) 00:05, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

:As expected a great list. A few minor points:

  • Julianne Moore is referred to as "his" in the lead.
  • In the caption for Helen Hunt's win, the year is missing for As Good as It Gets
  • Monster's Ball needs to be italicized in the caption
  • In the multiple wins and nominations section, it incorrectly says "Best Actor awards".
  • Meryl Streep is missing from the most nominations received table. --User:Krimuk90 (talk) 09:39, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

:*Done: I fixed everything you listed above. Thanks for spotting those errors.

Well everyone is aware that Katharine Hepburn has received the most awards with four wins. But,the lead says she has received three. Please correct the mistake.—Prashant 13:21, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

::{{reply to|Prashant!}} Please apologise to Birdie. This is not how you review other lists "very silly mistake, don't you think?". Point out what's wrong and be nice about it. Cowlibob (talk) 14:57, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

:::Sorry Birdie for my previous words. My intension was not to hurt.—Prashant 15:07, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

::::*{{reply to|Prashant!}}: I was not really offended by your remarks, but next time, please be considerate about your comments. Other Wikipedians may not take such statements so well as I do.

Still need to have a thorough look at the lead.

  • I think we should aim to use photos of the actresses of the age when they won their respective awards especially for the older ones. Also some screen legends are missing. Here are some image suggestions:

:*For Bette Davis: Here's a photo of her in her award winning role in Jezebel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bette_Davis_Jezebel_still.jpg

:*Ginger Rogers image: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ginger_Rogers_-_still.jpg

  • Shouldn't be using colour only to denote the winners, per WP:COLOR.

:*Fixed: Added double daggers next to each winning actress' name similar to Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series.

  • "The Wife - Indre" avoid spaced hyphens per WP:DASH.

:*Fixed: Removed "Indre" since the name is not used in the cast of credits.

  • In Chrome on my Macbook, I see a huge HUGE amount of white space after the main table and the contents of the next section.

::{{reply to|The Rambling Man}} I think that's a peculiarity of how Chrome works on Mac. Images load on the side of the table eliminating the white space on most PC browsers including Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and Firefox. Example: http://postimg.org/image/5zz4lnt95/ Cowlibob (talk) 01:22, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

  • Ref 10 has no (year) in the title.
