I have pretty much re-written this article since the last peer review and believe I have addressed the vast majority of the points raised. Looking for GA as soon as possible, along with any advice and help to get it up to FA. Thanks. --Jameboy 16:48, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There's a lot of choppy sentences with too many commas - I'll show you how to reduce commas by switching clauses.cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 11:02, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So, strange situation because I've already said I'd review this for GA but in parallel we have a PR, so I'll leave my comments here and see what happens, bearing in mind I'll review with minimum GA and beyond in mind (thinking of FA in other words...)

  • Move citations to comply with WP:CITE, immediately to right of punctuation.
  • Avoid prose within the parentheses. If it's worth being there, flow it.
  • "This made Albion virtually an automatic choice..." - says who?
  • Be consistent with season descriptions, you have 1910–11 and then 1919–1920.
  • Yuck, World War I - English should refer to this as First World War. Same with its successor.
  • "...this particular "Double"...." - needs further clarification - you mean winning the FA cup and being relegated? It's not clear.
  • "...hailed as "The Team of the Century"..." - this is some claim. I'm sure the citation helps but you have to justify it in the text.
  • "...there followed the club's longest ever continuous run in the top flight of English football, a total of 24 years." - cite it please.
  • En-dash - I saw a 1972-1973 instead of a 1972–73 there....
  • "..of 1500–2000..." not keen, perhaps "between 1,500 and 2,000..."
  • Heed WP:HEAD for headings - "Notable Fomer Players" -> "Notable former players"
  • In that table, link the positions, consider reformatting so it looks pleasant, make it sortable.
  • Wowwwweeee, one manager for 1520 games. Incredible. (That's just an observation, no action required!)
  • Ensure citations relating to multiple pages of books have consistent "pp", not just "p".

That's it for now. Let me know if I can help more. The Rambling Man (talk) 00:27, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
