It has been a while since I've been here, for a variety of reasons, but recently I have felt like doing something different and I believe that this article meets all relevant criteria to become a featured list. If anyone has any queries or spots a mistake then I'll endeavour to correct them as quickly as I can. Argyle 4 Lifetalk 00:47, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comments Support –
"and entered its first major international competition later that year; the qualifying rounds for the 1992 UEFA European Football Championship." Semi-colon would be better off as a colon.- Done.
A bunch of references have hyphens that should be converted to en dashes.Giants2008 (27 and counting) 21:20, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]- I think I've got them all.
Thanks for the review. Argyle 4 Lifetalk 15:25, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comments. Couple of picky things is all.
- In the lead, suggest spelling out UEFA and FIFA the first time they're used, with the abbreviation in brackets. The non-football reader might possibly be thrown by the Faroes joining FIFA, which happens to share its initials with the Faroe Islands FA.
- Done.
- In the Results Key, could you wikilink Own goal.
- Done.
In the Scorers column, would the dashes look better left-aligned with the scorers? this may be just a matter of personal taste.
Matter of interest, if anyone reading this who knows why empty cells have to contain a dash could point me towards the relevant guideline, I'd be grateful.
**I did have them blank initially and then added centred emdashes when KV5 said it would be preferable.
- In the Att column, could you display n/k rather than an emdash where the attendance figure is unknown? to me, the dash implies none, or inapplicable, rather than unknown.
- Done.
- You won't like this one. Do you think the home/away/neutral code should have its own column, for sortability?
- If the table wasn't so wide then I probably would have. Venues and competitions would be squashed into multiple rows and I'm not a fan of that.
- The 1996 Yugoslavia games should show the FR Yugoslavia flag, not the SFR, which wasn't used after 1992.
{{fb|FR Yugoslavia}}
works: Yugoslavia- Thanks for that. God bless flags. They met in 2001 as well so I've changed them too.

- Thanks for your comments, always appreciated. Argyle 4 Lifetalk 13:06, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Appears to meet criteria, and nominator has, as usual, been prompt and willing to respond to reviewers' valid concerns. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 20:22, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

These were the only two faults I could find with the list, once they are rectified I'll be glad to support. NapHit (talk) 18:10, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Support All my quandaries have been suitably addressed, great work. NapHit (talk) 20:10, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, close to Support: The sorting on the "Score" column seems a bit random. May I suggest using {{sort}} to sort by goal margin for (+1, +2) and against (-1, -2)? So for example a 1–0 win would be sorted as "+1" and a 2–3 loss as "–1". Just an idea. Otherwise looks great. —Cliftonianthe orangey bit 19:08, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- I like that. It'll take a while and I'm short of time tonight, but I'll have it done tomorrow. Argyle 4 Lifetalk 22:13, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Good stuff. If it's a heavy load I'm happy to help you out. —Cliftonianthe orangey bit 07:50, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- All done, how does it look? Thanks for the offer of help. It didn't take too long. Argyle 4 Lifetalk 12:18, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- The sorting was still funny, but I fixed it. It uses letters now; 0=n, –1=o, +1=m and so on. I'm upgrading to support; well done! —Cliftonianthe orangey bit 13:29, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
