2006 NFL Draft[edit]

The 2006 NFL Draft recently concluded and this page had hundreds of edits to it during its course. Now that the constant editing has died down I think this would make a great FL. I took a look at 2005 NFL Draft, a featured list, and this is comparable if not better. The red links are to players who were drafted low and aren't guaranteed to make the team, and will most likely be made if they do so. I can't think of anything major that would improve this list.

  • Support - I have no reason to object this nomination, but I would like to see it formatted like the already featured 2005 NFL Draft. The TOC is different, the "Pick #" is centered in one and not in the other and one has statistics of the players positions in the lead an the other has not. Of course this is just a personal suggestion. Anyway, the list is good. Afonso Silva 10:15, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Good points. I'm still deciding which version of the pick distribution is best to use, but I changed the TOC and pick #'s to be the same for each. VegaDark 20:27, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I decided to go with the 2005 pick distribution format. I thought it was better to have it at the start of the article and not in a long list format, but a side by side format. VegaDark 20:59, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - you are citing notes wonderfully. However, your real references (i.e. where you got the list from) is left to stand as external links. Please fix, nice shortcut is to use {{cite web}}. Renata 13:57, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I agree - most of the current "references" should be the Notes section. Rmhermen 20:19, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Just to clear things up, I hadn't made any edits to this article prior to nomination. I just noticed it and thought it would make a good FA. As for the references, I switched things up a bit to make more sense. VegaDark 04:28, 11 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - good enough. Renata 16:21, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Despite working on this article, I feel that this is good enough for a featured list. — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 19:46, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
