The list was not promoted by User:The Rambling Man 15:45, 17 September 2008 [1].
I'm nominating this list, which I feel is an excellent Featured candidate, with an interesting subject and an excellent layout (although i'm hardly the most neutral person to judge that). Over the last two weeks i've built it from the ground up in my sandbox (compare before and after.) I've completed the list, created articles for every Member of Parliament who is present and put paragraphs after each date heading detailing particularly interesting resignations, as well as a little column to display which party the resigning MP was a member of.

*Other claims should probably also be cited e.g. "During the ensuing scandal James became the first QC in British history to be disbarred." And explain QC if I were you since it's significant that James was the first of his type to be disbarred.

I'm not keen on downsized text. Most of the time it depends on the browser as to how the downsizing is interpreted and implemented. So when I can, I'd avoid it. The Rambling Man ( talk) 20:50, 30 August 2008 (UTC) reply
Comments cont. - okay, it's been a week, so a nice review with a fresh mind...!
**I've expanded the lead additionally; surely the paragraphs interspersed throughout the list discuss the more interesting resignations?
*Some would question the (seemingly) arbitrary divisions of time periods applied here - any logic or just looks good?
*Force the column widths of each table (if you wish to keep multiple tables) to the same width from section to section.
*MPs or MP's?
*" holding one of the offices for a " - one of the offices? I'd reinforce that there are two offices which could have been occupied for this purpose here.
*I may be wrong (so check the
WP:MOS) but I think See also sections go before References?
Comments - I thoroughly enjoyed reading this article, but I have several concerns to be resolved before I could support it as a featured list:
I've merged it all to one table, added a resignations column (about which i'm open to alternative wording suggestions) and seperated the refs. The merging now allows TRM's sorting suggestion, although I worry that might make it a bit table-heavy. Ironho lds 11:51, 17 September 2008 (UTC) reply
