*'''Delist''' no effort to improve the article after over a month. In addition to subpar referencing, the article is too Oscar-centric in terms of awards (i.e. only other accolade even mentioned in lead is Lifetime Achievement Award), and the neutrality of "Selected filmography" is questionable at best since it cherry-picks film listings based on some unclear (and likely subjective) criteria.

Review section

Per Talk:Bette Davis#Featured Article?, the article was last reviewed nearly ten years ago and needs more sourcing to remain up to featured article standard. DrKay (talk) 11:35, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed it does. I don't have the needed resources to patch it up, but someone would have to do lots of work to bring this up to par. Snuggums (talk / edits) 14:19, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As it stands, right now, it'd fail the Good Article criteria. Miyagawa (talk) 13:08, 28 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

FARC section

The main issue raised above is the article's sourcing. Nikkimaria (talk) 14:48, 9 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Demote. An article I wish to work on but cannot due to the unavailability of the needed resources. Needs quite a lot of work. ツ FrB.TG (talk) 12:30, 9 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
