competitive/honorary distinction

Offering a belated reply @Ifrit: I concur with your March 2024 observation that this article fails to explain the distinction between competitive and non-competitive awards before employing this nuance. I'd further contend that the article's current tone and structure overemphasizes the matter altogether. Winners are winners; the boundaries do not demand a competitive/non-competitive distinction. The larger table of EGOT winners already notes several nuanced distinctions among those achievements; surely an additional note could adequately specify the honorary awards among six EGOT winners. Indeed, the subsequent list (on Three competitive awards) makes the point with the "NCA" note. (Reusing the same notation throughout these lists would likely benefit the average/casual reader.) In short, the structural treatment of competitive/non-competitive awards merits serious reconsideration. — HipLibrarianship ^talk 03:52, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: moved. (closed by non-admin page mover) Bensci54 (talk) 17:05, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

List of EGOT winners → EGOT – The term "EGOT" for the title of the article is simpler and more broad. Other lists of winners of media awards are under just the name of the award, i.e. Triple Crown of Acting and Academy Honorary Award. ClovisBarnhopper (talk) 16:45, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support. I think the current title is a little too narrow. There is stuff in this article about PEGOT, REGOT, and EGOT equivalents outside US. The proposal makes more sense. --Quiz shows 01:03, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
