:Nominator(s): Mister sparky (talk) 23:53, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

{{Wikipedia:Featured list tools|1=Black Eyed Peas discography}}

I am nominating this for featured list because in the last FLC discussion there were alot of problems with the article that have now been addressed and more time has passed so there is now more information and article is longer. Mister sparky (talk) 23:53, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

• Quick drive-by comment - in the "other appearances" section, is it really necessary to have a notes column stating that the song was from the soundtrack of film X when the column immediately to the left lists the album the song's on as being the soundtrack to film X......? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:31, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
• Any plans to respond to this point I raised nearly two weeks ago, even if only to tell me to get lost? :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:39, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

::hey, oops! sorry i missed that one! its just how ive seen the table set out in other articles and sometimes the column is necessary. i agree that it probably isnt this time. oh and i'd never tell you to get lost :p Mister sparky (talk) 11:34, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

• Not keen on a single-sentence opening paragraph.

:merged Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• Here's a thing. Is it "the Black Eyed Peas" or just "Black Eyed Peas"?

:the bands name is "black eyed peas", but the sentence flows better and sounds more grammatically correct saying "the black eyed peas" i thought... Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• "Although the album got a four-star review.." - "got" - not nice. Perhaps, received?

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• "to chart lowly in " - lowly? subjective, I'd be more precise.

:altered Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• sixty-seven, eighteen -> 67, 18

:numbers are written in words in the rest of the lead, so keeping as words for consistency. Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• "the band released their third album" - is band singular or plural? "its third album"?

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• "two in Canada" - "number two in Canada"

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• "It quickly became their most successful album in the US by reaching number one." - define "quickly"?

:removed Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• "it the bands first" - I may be wrong but I would have thought that should be "band's"

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• "It held onto the top spot for twelve weeks and was knocked off the top spot by the album's second single" - top spot is reused to quickly, and we've possibly lost track of what "It" is from the previous sentence.

:altered Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• "This also replaced "Boom Boom Pow" at the top of the charts in Canada and Australia, as well as also peaking at number one all over the world." - also reused too much.

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• "Third single "Meet Me Halfway", has peaked at number one in Australia, Germany and the United Kingdom and has reached the top ten in several other countries, including the US." - unreferenced, and not grammatically correct to start the sentence that way.

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• Three of the EPs are unreferenced.

:added Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

• How did "Shut Up" not chart in the US and still make Gold certification?

:it didn't chart on the hot 100, but the riaa says its certified gold. Mister sparky (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

;General

• No disambiguation links and ALT text is ok, but reference 35 is a dead link

;Lead

• "it only managed to chart lowly in" you should only use "only managed" with exact chart positions; I suggest "it charted lowly in"

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 12:45, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

• "its highest peak position in New Zealand" I think "peak" is redundant and can be removed

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 12:45, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

• "released it's third album" should have "its" not "it's"; the incorrect word means "it is"

• Numerically order the references after the sentence ending "and number three in the United Kingdom."

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 12:45, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

• Need a comma after "the band's first US number-one hit"

:the next word is "and", you can't have a comma before "and" Mister sparky (talk) 12:45, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

• "and was knocked off the number-one position by the album's second single, "I Gotta Feeling"" can be reworded "until being replaced by the album's second single, "I Gotta Feeling""

:changed Mister sparky (talk) 12:45, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

• "has peaked at number one in Australia, Germany and the United Kingdom and has reached the" repeats "has" twice; take out the second one

• The titles of the last three items in Extended plays link to specific sections which don't exist in the linked article

:the sub-sections of the linked articles changed. fixed now Mister sparky (talk) 12:45, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

• I would add a non-breaking space for I Gotta Feeling's release date so the year doesn't go to the next line

• Under Singles, why is there a large gray line between the two 2000 releases?
• Under Singles, why is there a large gray line between the NZ and SWI charts?
• Under Singles, why is there a large gray line between "Shut Up" and "Hey Mama"?

:don't understand what you mean by these 3... unless you mean the grey lines that have to be there that separates the releases rows and columns? Mister sparky (talk) 12:45, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

::I never suggested doing that. I was merely giving a sourced example. Let me put it differently: Right now all countries covered are either European or primarily English-speaking.

Then there is the newly introduced source [http://www.videostatic.com/ Video Static] that looks to me like a random blog. What makes it reliable?

:well nothing else i can do about your chart opinion, each position can be individually cited by using chartsplus but that would be an unnecessary last resort. out of a list of 10 counties, only 5 are english-speaking and only 6 are european. the only other country you could be meaning to add would be japan. then that demonstrates an unfair bias towards japan on your part because of your insistance of its addition. and fixed ref 28.

:::As I said before, I was merely giving a sourced example. You said yourself that "the e.n.d charted highly in a number of countries around the world".

• Quick Comment - Is there a reason why Shot is in Caps in Ref #50? Afro (Its More Than a Feeling) ^{- Afkatk} 20:00, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

:having a quick look, the section of the article where the information is located has it as the heading. Mister sparky (talk) 22:17, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

:*Well I would think per WP:ALLCAPS it shouldn't be All caps. Plus #37 ^ a b ""Blackl Eyed Peas: Discography: DVDs & Videos". " typo. Afro (Its More Than a Feeling) ^{- Afkatk} 00:04, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

• Can you fix the reference that Goodraise has noted above? It does, indeed, just lead to the Allmusic homepage. The Rambling Man (talk) 14:17, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

:when i click on ref 28 it goes to the correct page? Mister sparky (talk) 15:30, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

::Yep, you're right. The link in the article is correct. The link posted above by Goodraise does link to the homepage. No problem then. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:10, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

• Comment While I agree that everyhit.com is not of the highest quality, I think the links provided ensure that it's at least acceptable, and as it used sparingly, I don't think it's a big enough issue to deny this list FL status. Dabomb87 (talk) 00:33, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
• Comment - Though the About section of the site is makes it kind of questionable, I think it can be used in this case and as it was said at the Reliable Sources Noticeboard [http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/help/contactus/success/ BBC Radio One does recommend it].

• Comments – The writing itself seems fine, but why is "I Gotta Feeling" linked twice so close together? That has to be the closest repeated linking I've ever seen in an article. I also noticed the missing director in the video listing; this may have been tried already, but is the name given in the video itself? If so, you could just cite the video. Not a big deal if it isn't there, though. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 22:30, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

:fixed the overlink, no idea why it was linked twice so close together lol. but the director for Union has only been found via blogs and fansites so far :( Mister sparky (talk) 22:40, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
