Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on May 27, 2011.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that French actress Isabelle Huppert (pictured) is the most recent recipient of the British Film Institute Fellowship award?

Wikimarkup[edit]

Ugh, it's horrible. That bold for "2001" in the table is presumably an error, but I couldn't figure out how to fix it. --Dweller (talk) 11:56, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's a result of using the !scope="row" markup which helps screenreaders. I didn't get round to finishing it off properly although the "plainrowheaders" in the table class description should help nullify that effect once complete. I've removed the one-off issue for the moment. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:22, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Initial order[edit]

Guys and gals, a quick question. Currently the fellows are initially ordered by surname but year of the award receipt comes first (mea culpa). I'm not sure this is the best arrangement, but wondered what people thought, should the year be first and the list be chronological, should the Fellow come first and year second, or is it okay as it is?? Or is there another solution? The Rambling Man (talk) 15:55, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say year order, earliest to latest. That's what I expected to find. --Dweller (talk) 09:54, 18 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2012[edit]

I believe Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton were the 2012 inductees. Miyagawa (talk) 19:01, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

7 omissions from the list, 2011-2015- CORRECTED[edit]

So I just went through and added all of these, but I wanted to make a note that before my edits just now, there were 7 BFI fellows that were awarded from 2011 to this year that were not featured on the list. And while Mel Brooks is a very recent award and could be forgiven, the other SIX cannot be excused this way. These included Ralph Fiennes and David Cronenberg (awarded in 2011), Bryan Forbes (awarded in 2012), Richard Lester and Philip French (awarded in 2013), and John Boorman (awarded in 2014). This is a FEATURED article, and there was no template messages or anything signifying that the article was out of date or was incomplete. I just wanted to put this on the record and make editors aware of this issue. In the future, please use the official listing of BFI Fellows at http://www.bfi.org.uk/about-bfi/senior-staff-governors-bfi-fellows/bfi-fellows to make sure the list is as accurate as possible.

Thanks for your work. Your comment "the other SIX cannot be excused this way" is a little odd, this is a volunteer project and no-one is obligated to do anything. For clarification, it's not a "FEATURED article", it's a featured list, and sure, thanks for noting the URL to help us out. If the Fellowships are awarded with little fanfare, it's easy to miss them. Feel free to keep an eye on it and update it in the future. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:23, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
