This article is a different format than what I’m used to submitting. The Grand Prix of Figure Skating is a prestigious international series of seven competitions, and the current season actually started today with the 2025 Grand Prix de France. The tables identify the gold medalists for each competition each season. All of the results have been verified and sourced, the tables should be properly formatted, and the sources should be properly formatted. I look forward to your constructive feedback or suggestions.

• A bit weird to have an empty row at the end of every table, but the French results should come by tomorrow, so at least one of those cells will have data.
• Only background color should not be a way to highlight a particular cell. But, I think the footnote is enough to satisfy accessibility needs.
• I didn’t find any problems with table accessibility.
• The flags automatically get alt-text from the template used. There is only one other image, the logo, and that has alt-text.
• Support on table and image accessibility. –MPGuy2824 (talk)
  • Yes, I only added the 2025 row because the 2025 series literally started yesterday. The women’s and pairs results for France will be added today; men’s and dance tomorrow. With the time difference from France, I’ve been watching the event all morning. 😃 Bgsu98 (Talk) 13:57, 18 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• “is a series of senior-level international figure skating competitions sanctioned by the International Skating Union, which debuted in 1995” – I would change this to “is a series of senior-level international figure skating competitions which debuted in 1995 and sanctioned by the International Skating Union” so it doesn’t read like it was the ISU which debuted in 1995
• “as a replacement for the Bofrost Cup on Ice” – first mention in the body so link
• “as a replacement for the Cup of China” – same
• “It returned in 2022 as a replacement for the Rostelecom Cup” – same
• Why are some cells coloured green and blue? It’s not clear and this is probably also an accessibility violation — ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:33, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  I rephrased the beginning, because none of those events actually debuted in 1995. They were pre-existing competitions that were yoked together in one series beginning in 1995. Let me know what you think.

  I linked the competitions you mentioned except for Cup of China, which was mentioned prior.

  I added a color key to the tables, which admittedly I should have already done, but there is no accessibility violation because there is also a footnote in each cell.

  ChrisTheDude: Let me know if you have any other concerns. Thank you! Bgsu98 (Talk) 11:22, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Why is “The Figure Skating Corner” a reliable source?
• Why is “Tracings” a reliable source?
• Why is “Skating Scores” a reliable source?

• All three are consistent, reliable sources vetted by the Figure Skating WikiProject.

• Every Skating Score source I checked was dead and needs to be marked as such

• There was some formatting issue with the URLs for all of the Skate Scores sources; they should be fixed now.

• Linking is consistent
• Dates are consistent except for one which I fixed
• Everything is archived
• Spot checks found nothing

User:Olliefant: Thank you for taking the time the do this source review. Those Skating Scores URLs should now be fixed. Let me know if you find anything else. Bgsu98 (Talk) 11:47, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there! I know it’s been a while since I’ve stopped by one of your noms (was getting over some general Wiki burnout). Apologies if I missed any in the interim. Anyways, this list is pretty well put together, just a few quick comments:

• I realize this is currently ongoing, but just until the actual results are available, I suggest adding {{N/a}} or {{TBA}} to avoid the appearance of empty cells.
• It appears there are a few duplicate citations, based off of this version. These could likely be merged for ease.
  • 222 and 229 both point to the same citation, despite having different titles

• The link was wrong for the 2023 event. I have corrected it, but will have to wait until I get home to add the archive since the school has the archive site blocked for whatever reason.

• • 31 and 219 also appear to be identical
  • Ditto for 27/216 and 26/209

I think that’s all I have, everything else seems to have already been addressed via comments above, nice work! TheDoctorWho (talk) 03:23, 30 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:TheDoctorWho: All of those should be fixed now. Thank you for pointing them out to me! I also have the following articles up for FL/FA consideration if you’d like to take a look: Czech Figure Skating Championships and 2022 World Figure Skating Championships. I see that you have posted a new FLC last night; I will take a look at it when I get home this evening. I hope you have been doing well! Bgsu98 (Talk) 11:04, 30 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
