List of awards and nominations received by Hill Street Blues[edit]

Created by TonyTheTiger (talk). Self nominated at 16:57, 23 September 2013 (UTC).

  • New enough, long enough, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. I wonder, though, if you can come up with a spicier hook, perhaps citing one of the show's all-time records? Yoninah (talk) 23:59, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the ALTs, Tony. I prefer ALT3, which reads the smoothest. However, none of the information in the hook is cited in the article, per WP:DYK#The hook, Content #3. Yoninah (talk) 21:41, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
  • Actually, no. The first paragraph of the lead has no citations and, if it is referring to the information in the charts to follow, those charts also have no citations, which does not satisfy Rule D2. (Where did you find all this information?) The citations for the second paragraph of the lead seem to be talking about other series that surpassed Hill Street Blues in awards/nominations. It's not clear to me that footnote 4 is even making the same statement as your text makes. Yoninah (talk) 16:51, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
  • Doesn't the source say that Hill Street Blues shares this record of 8 wins with E.R.?
  • It is my understanding that to qualify for DYK, all those charts of nominations and winners that you've printed need citations. Just providing a citation for the hook is not sufficient in this case. Yoninah (talk) 19:22, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
  • I lost steam on that article. I am not likely to source each award. If that is required, you can just fail this now.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:29, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
