GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Eddie Johnson (English footballer)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
Extremely well sourced, however the following concerns: The early life section is just one sentence, and would probably work to add some of the information from the Man U section to it. Either do that or remove it all together. Either way it's way to short. Also found way to much useage of he/him/his. Try to use Johnson's name more often, or remove some of the extra uses of the same pronouns. Other than that the article reads clear and makes sense to a non-follower of football.

Thanks very much for the review.

I've moved a few of his more junior details (basically anything up to 15) to the "Early life" section. And I've tried to add a few more uses of Johnson. Hopefully it looks better now. Peanut4 (talk) 02:59, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I still wouldn't mind a bit more information about him. The section just looks very empty and bare. Kaiser matias (talk) 04:05, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid that is pretty much all there is from all the sources available on him. Peanut4 (talk) 11:38, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

While it would benefit having more information on his early life, the wealth of information in the rest of the article, complete with heavy referencing, makes up or it. Kaiser matias (talk) 22:48, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review, and thanks for the pass. I'll keep on trying to find more info to add to the early life section if any comes available. Peanut4 (talk) 23:08, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
