Provide a list I compiled partially based on worthy principles (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

idealistic

'based on worthy principles' is the definition.

'provide a list i compiled partially' is the wordplay.
'partially' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'IDEALISTIC' can be found hidden inside 'provide a list i compiled'.

(Other definitions for idealistic that I've seen before include "Naively impractical" , "Impracticable" , "Striving for perfection" , "High-minded - italicised (anag)" , "Seeking the best" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
