*[[Persepolis]] - A lot of good info here on one of the ancient world's most important cities, but it reads like it was written by someone who spoke a primary language other than English.

[[User:Dppowell|Dppowell]] 05:37, 27 November 2006 (UTC) |

:*Did some copyediting. Still has issues that I can't fix, mostly due to lack of familiarity with the subject and the fact that it was probably written by someone with English as a 2nd Language. I'm not familiar with the subject so someone else more familiar with ancient persia probably needs to look it over. Also, it needs citations desperatly.

|||
*[[Mr. Do]] - Someone reverted my edits after I fixed it and removed it from cleanup in Oct, claiming they were unfair based on the fact that [[Pac-man]] has a long description. I hate to say it, but what it was reverted to is a lengthly unpargraphed mess of poorly worded descriptions of the game that make little sense, are hardly readable and are not needed for an article about a game that is as non-notable as this one. I personally think that what I edited to it would have been fine and more concise, but I don't want to create a revert war here by going back to it myself. Maybe someone else can find a happy medium. See my original edit [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Mr._Do%21&oldid=81607265 here].

*[[Chinese language]] - Many sections are disorganised and do not conform to the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Language_Template|language template]] recommended by the Wikiproject of Languages. Also, subsections are misplaced, such as [[Chinese language#loandwords|loanwords]], which shouldn't be listed under morphology and the content is quite difficult to read. Another discrepany is when you search for ''Sinitic languages'', it redirects you to the [[Spoken Chinese]] entry; however, when you type ''Chinese languages'', it brings you to [[Chinese language]]. The section on [[Chinese languages#characters|Chinese characters]] is still unnecessarily long even though there is already a detailed article on [[Chinese character]]s. And the whole entry is just too long, it is 57kb in size, some of the clumsier sections should be rewritten for sub-articles. I do not understand how this article managed to become a featured article before, or maybe it was much better.

I think an expert should rewrite the whole thing, starting off by giving the goal (to create a minimal, exhaustive, and exclusive list of all the fundamental kinds (no universal negative categories, or disjunctive categories) of things that exist) - i.e. a category has to "earn" a place on the list by proving itself to be irreducible to other categories, or capable of being eliminated entirely. In the second part, s/he should then list the categories that have been argued to exist (be generous in this part, since reductive/eliminative arguments will come next). And in the third part, s/he should discuss arguments for/against certain categories e.g. Hume argued that space and time don't "deserve" a category on the list because they are only constructs of the human mind. |

*[[Resveratrol]] - The subject of this article has been frontpage news world wide as a result of the release of results from a 'fat mice' experiment at Harvard (Dr Sinclair) suggesting that there is a possible escape from the generally undesirable consequences ([[liver]], [[heart]], arterial, metabolic disease, including [[diabetes mellitus]]) of over indulgence. This article does not do WP justice in that it is full of suggestive allusions, including to this (these) compound(s)'s use in the diet supplement industry, particulalry the unusual US version of it due to Congress having 'saved' the vitamin industry in the early '90s. Improvement can't be limited to textual review as some of the technical material also requires review. Given the news coverage, improvement is somewhat urgent. See Talk.

The E-marketing article was expanded following this by various anons using only Chaffey's definition of e-marketing, and then forked out onto the [[online marketing]] article in which Chaffey's work forms the bulk of the article. Now maybe Chaffey wrote the absolute tome of intenet marketing and everyone in the industry uses his definition, in which case it would be OK. But I doubt that somehow. [[Online marketing]] and [[E-marketing]] need rewrites. Couple this with the fact that we have a un-Chaffey article at [[internet marketing]] which should probably be merged makes this a big job. - [[User:Hahnchen|Hahnch]][[Evil|<span title="WP:Esperanza"><font color="green">e</font></span>]][[User:Hahnchen|n]] 21:20, 1 September 2006 (UTC) |

Please see my explanations of my concerns relating to the problems of inaccuracy of format and other inaccuracies being introduced for the past week into the first article (Charles Jacobs) and since yesterday the second article (Harold Pinter) by at least one other editor, SlimVirgin. She is continually (over and over again) reverting correct format to incorrect format and also reverting previously-deemed unverified or unsupported information by putting it back in the article without any checking or knowledge of the sources or the subject of the article or the format styles. These reversions are continually introducing mistakes and inaccuracies in these articles of living persons and also violating [[WP:BLP]] and [[WP:Citing Sources]] and [[WP:Reliable sources]], as well as policies relating to [[Wikipedia:Five pillars]]. If she and other editors commenting in the articles' and my talk pages are administrators, I feel that they are abusing their privileges as administrators and not maintaining [[NPOV]] or even common courtesy, much less stated Wikipedia policies re: respecting the work of others. I have tried to bring these problems to these editors' attention, but to no avail. They basically gang up on me and attempt to make it seem that I do not know Wikipedia policies, but I have read the policies, and I do know what they are. That is why I am lodging these complaints. |

*:The same mistake has occurred as in the previous version: Libya, which is by no means abolitionist in practice, has been marked as such. The map needs a thorough check against [[Use of death penalty worldwide]] to make sure that no more errors have crept in. (Western Sahara has been changed from "abolitionist in practice" to "retentionist", and it does not appear in the list; are there any references to legal death penalty use [as opposed to extrajudicial executions committed by armed groups] there?) In addition, it is inconsistent to mark states which have abolished death penalty by the [[Furman v. Georgia|1972 Supreme Court decision]] (or earlier by law, or - if there is such - had reinstated it after the verdict and then abolished it again) as abolitionist in practice, while marking states where death penalty has recently been abolished on the grounds of the state constitutions (often because of technicalities) as abolitionist for all crimes. I don't think that any state can be considered to be abolitionist for all crimes, and I am not sure that the AI classification is useful for them: even in the states where the death penalty doesn't exist the perpetrator could, at least in theory, face death penalty under the federal law (which did happen in [[List of individuals executed in Michigan|Michigan]]). The claim that federal death penalty is not being used is not true, either - see [[Timothy McVeigh]], executed in 2001.

* [[Ari Fleischer]] -- The article reads, ''"The indictment states that Libby told Fleischer (referred to as the White House press secretary in the indictment) that Plame worked for the CIA and that this fact was not well-known. '''Such information, shared with a press secretary who talks to reporters on a regular basis, seems destined for a reporter's ears''', and these hints suggest that Fleischer may have been Novak's original source."'' (bold emphasis added to problem area) The problem here is that the writer assumes that because Fleisher is the PS, he will tell the press everything he knows; including matters of national security. That is incorrect and a major violation of ethics and responsibilities in his line of work. As Fleisher himself writes in his book, ''Taking Heat'' (2005, p.246), "The job of the White House Press Secretary isn't to say everything you know to be true, but everything you say had better be true." To suggest that he would be obligated to share sensitive information such as this is incorrect and ignorant. While I do not believe WikiPedia should remove the entire section to protect the accusations made of Fleischer in this case, I do think they should edit that statement to avoid misleading readers to believe that he had an obligation or a tendendeny to leak sensitive information. |

Needs summarisation of long quotes of original sources, and a hard assessment of linked NN genealogy cruft such as [[James Brockman Esq b1626]] and [[William Brockman Esq]]. [[User:Tearlach|Tearlach]] 23:30, 19 June 2006 (UTC) |

*[[Fourier optics]]. Important topic, but only has a brief introduction written in a fairly informal tone. -[[User:Dmmaus|dmmaus]] 06:02, 20 June 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Hierotheos the Thesmothete]] Needs to be wikified. --[[User:Dakart|Dakart]] 05:20, 21 June 2006 (UTC) |

*[[Clonduff]] - Does not assert its importance, badly formatted, no links --[[User:Mo-Al|Mo-Al]] 16:23, 18 June 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Fisherian runaway]] This article is somewhat confusing and could also use some citations. |
|||
*[[Transport in Cyprus]] This article is basically just a selection of facts and figures and needs reformatting and restructuring into sentences. --[[User:Daduzi|<font color="Brown">'''Daduzi'''</font>]] [[User talk:Daduzi|<font color="Green"><sup>talk</sup></font>]] 05:59, 17 June 2006 (UTC) |

|||
*[[Wald (onomastics)]]. No idea how to fix. -- User:Docu |
|||
*[[Durham Fair]] - This article featured outdated information, so I fixed it. |
|||
*[[Royal Guards (Thailand)]] - This article is a total mess and barely in English. I fixed up the introduction with a major rewrite, but the rest of the article needs cleanup from a refereed source. [[User:Decadencecavy|Decadencecavy]] 04:55, 16 June 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Lalitaditya Muktapida]] - This article needs just some general editing (i.e. correction of spelling/grammatical errors) and also perhaps more research (Only one page out of one history book is cited). |
|||
==May 2006== |
|||
*[[Chan Kau-tai]] More detail/significance? [[User:Jackiespeel|Jackiespeel]] 22:13, 31 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Caviomorpha]] Could be made clearer for those less familar with terminology for ancient beasties. [[User:Jackiespeel|Jackiespeel]] 18:32, 31 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
* [[Martha Washingtonians]] is badly in need of some expert input and serious restructuring and needs more sources. - [[User:Sajun777|Sajun777]] 11:17, 30 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Gus Fink]] - Perhaps a fairly notable artist (at least, makes a claim of notability), but the article is unwikified and contains a lot of unencyclopedic material. - [[User:Mike Rosoft|Mike Rosoft]] 09:27, 29 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Marion College, Missouri]] - Notable as a former college, but like many former college articles, it's totally out of format. I've done a lot of these as of late and frankly would like a bit of a break. Sorry. :/ [[User:Beginning|Beginning]] 23:00, 29 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[The Open Boat and Other Tales]] - Much of this makes no sense and is written in the first person. |
|||
**First person seems to have been removed, but it still reads like an essay.--[[User:Runningamok|MPW]] 00:30, 30 September 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Drawball]] - Needs more editors to clean it up, and keep it clean. See [[Talk:Drawball]]. The article is one of the worst on Wikipedia, entirely full of unencyclopedic unsourced subtrivia. Every time an experienced editor removes something, it's replaced with more online webforum dick wagging over who has the biggest picture. - [[User:Hahnchen|Hahnch]][[Evil|<span title="WP:Esperanza"><font color="green">e</font></span>]][[User:Hahnchen|n]] 03:48, 28 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Lyn Duff]] - Too many external links, unencyclopedic style, possibly copied from somewhere. - [[User:Mike Rosoft|Mike Rosoft]] 08:52, 28 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Darkest Hour]] Needs to have sources and most of most of the article isn't written in a NPOV. [[New York Daily News]] Needs sources and has a bunch of weasel words. [[Jackyl]] reads like an ad. [[User:71.251.20.73|71.251.20.73]] 06:13, 27 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Maharishi Mahesh Yogi]] - Due to edits of {{user|Peterklutz}}, the article looks like promotional of [[transcendental meditation]]. - [[User:Mike Rosoft|Mike Rosoft]] 12:43, 27 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Bishopric of Bordeaux]] - Copied from (public domain) Catholic Encyclopedia, outdated information. - [[User:Mike Rosoft|Mike Rosoft]] 12:54, 27 May 2006 (UTC) |

|||
*[[Carola Unterberger-Probst]] Needs some grammar / style correction. I think the article is by a non-native English speaker or a computer translation? [[User:Rjwilmsi|Rjwilmsi]] 08:11, 26 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Gopaldas Neeraj]] - Unwikified, possibly copied from somewhere, in any case the style is completely inappropriate and needs to be rewritten. - [[User:Mike Rosoft|Mike Rosoft]] 08:28, 26 May 2006 (UTC) |

*[[CHIC (band)]] - In dire need of a complete rewrite/copyedit/formatting. --[[User:FuriousFreddy|FuriousFreddy]] 01:52, 27 May 2006 (UTC) |

*[[Post-structuralism]] Article not coherent --[[User:Mikkel Bue Lykkegaard|Mikkel Bue Lykkegaard]] 21:22, 25 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Mario Encarnacion]] Lurid |
|||
*[[Uniform Crime Reports]] - In addition to expansion, the Index crime section is overly long and poorly formatted. The criticism sections should either be merged or defined separately. [[User:CRobey|CRobey]] 17:35, 15 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
*[[Daniel Coburn]] article is very poorly written and does not conform to [[WP:BIO]] standards. Also used to include lots of POV. |
|||
*[[cross-dressing]] - A lot of good information, but poorly structured: too many very short paragraphs and bulleted lists; also incoherently ordered, e.g. the article begins with an explanation of details of the usage of terms before explaining main issues. |

- Alessandro Giardelli-Terribly written, most of the tenses are wrong and grammar is non-existent. Excessive citations and too much detail in certain parts. AsaQuathern (talk) 22:32, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- I removed a couple cleanup tags that didn't seem to fit the state of the article, but holy crap, you're not kidding about the excessive citations and detail. I don't really feel competent in deciding what should be cut or not (are all these preliminary and practice rankings necessary?), so I've just started focusing on the grammar to the best of my ability. But someone who knows more about racing (read: knows something about racing) should probably come in here with an axe! Maybe a blunt one! Fieari (talk) 04:47, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
Structured criticality- the whole page needs help in restructuringAsaQuathern (talk) 02:47, 13 December 2024 (UTC)- Comment: I suppose you could say the article itself is structured critically.[Joke]But on a serious not, the article's most major contributor is an IP from 2005, and the second most major seems to be SmackBot. — Daℤyzzos (✉️ • 📤) 13:29, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah I really don't know anything about the topic nor how to clean the article up. Plus there is a similar article. Perhaps merging the two would be the best AsaQuathern (talk) 16:21, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

- Italian cuisine – cleanup per MOS:OVERLINK (too many links). JacktheBrown (talk) 01:40, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- @JacktheBrown I went through and removed what I thought were unnecessary links (eg potatoes, tomatoes, wine) and repeats (eg neapolitan pizza, Tuscan/Tuscany) but it seems they were all rolled back. So I will leave it for someone else to look at. BJCHK (talk) 02:10, 1 December 2024 (UTC)
- Temi Adeniji - The article may require general cleanup, as most of its information is incorrect. I have addressed it on the talk page for easy editing and I have been trying to do that since yesterday, my edit keeps being reversed for this reason WP:CDNI. --Afí-afeti (talk) 14:53, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

- Mozzarella – source n. 24: "permanent dead link". JacktheBrown (talk) 14:00, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

- @00101984hjw: you've solved most of the reported problems, really good. Thank you. JacktheBrown (talk) 15:30, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
- Note: Any link to the URL? It seems the parameter was never specified. Is this reference supposed to be a website like it is right now? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Cooldudeseven7 join in on the tea talk 12:30, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

- @00101984hjw: Thank you for that. Unfortunately, it seems like the article has gotten worse, with 90% of it being a list of who he's worked with and the only thing about the subject being his engagement & marriage. BOTTO (T•C) 19:54, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- Most of the content added were from IPs so yeah no surprise it's in that state. I'll go ahead an clean up the citekill. -- 00101984hjw (talk) 22:00, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

After saving, the toolbar should appear at the top of the editing interface; click "Cite", then in the "Templates" drop down menu click on either "Cite web" or "Cite news" depending on the source.
