< Wikipedia talk:Featured list candidates

I love how you come after me because I proved you wrong at WT:PW. First of all, all the information in the first paragraph is sourced with the refs that are there, its called a general reference (which means that one source can be verifying a paragraph or a couple of sentences). Second of all, the second paragraph is a summary prose, which means that it is summarizing the list itself. That is sourced by the list, so there is no need to source the prose because the references are in the list already, its an FL standard. Thank you very much.--TRUCO 20:21, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
First, if I was "coming after you", I would have opposed and not given a reason at all. Second, I prefer inline citations over a generalized reference so you don't have to hunt down the correct reference. — Moe ε 20:26, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Well considering this is the only Featured content you have ever reviewed, it still means something. Besides, that is personal preference, all featured lists do not have references for their summary prose because it is a "summary" of the list (and the list has the references), which is an accepted standard for featured lists because the information is still verifiable. In addition, the "general" ref at the bottom is verifying it.--TRUCO 20:29, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Just because I have never encountered you at a featured candidates page doesn't mean I've never participated in one, thank you very much. — Moe ε 20:35, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
