Revision as of 16:39, 31 July 2006

This article concerning a minor league ballpark in Texas recently became a good article. I have found little regarding what a stadium article should be in order to become featured, and I was hoping that this peer review could help me to gain more perspective on the article (as all peer reviews do). I anxiously await any input and thank you in advance for your aid. — Scm83x hook 'em 22:26, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
