I am nominating this for featured list because it has all the attributes listed on Featured list criteria. עם ישראל חי (talk) 21:29, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Note by Jimknut

There is not much of an introduction here.
For Al Gore: District of Columbia is misspelled.
The names of the vice-presidents sort incorrectly by first name rather than last name.
Just a matter of opinion here: Since we have this list already, why do we need yours? Jimknut (talk) 22:11, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

corrected spelling , fixed sorting, this list is sorted by birth order corresponding to the this list for presidents. עם ישראל חי (talk) 22:46, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose

There is no lead.
The single sentence should not have the title in bold, per MOS:BOLDAVOID.
The list sorts badly.
The list is a unnecessary content fork of List of Vice Presidents of the United States.
The "Of note in this table" section could be interesting if written well in the lead, but is essentially a trivia section.
The list is entirely unreferenced, and the only references provided are for two of the items of trivia. One is a raw URL.
To be blunt, this list should be at AfD, not FLC. Harrias ^talk 22:20, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose – per Harrias' comments. I'm sorry to be blunt as well, but this is nowhere near FL quality. Probably should have been brought to peer review first. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 23:05, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not quite sure why this list even exists; it's redundant to List of Vice Presidents of the United States by age and List of Vice Presidents of the United States by place of primary affiliation and should be merged with them. Any suggestions for which info should be kept with what? Reywas92^Talk 23:40, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Why not just have a single list for vice presidents and include the most pertinent information...? Mattximus (talk) 02:39, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - no lead and no sources makes it a no-brainer oppose for me -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:37, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Snow closing this. --Pres N 15:47, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
