The Wikipedia Cleanup Legacy List
The manually maintained lists on this page (below) have to an extent been superseded by category lists that are automatically generated from the {{cleanup}} banners placed on articles. See Category:All pages needing cleanup and Category:Cleanup by month.
You may add cleanup requests here as well if you wish (though it is not necessary); see Wikipedia:Cleanup process for further information. Please only add articles to this list that are unlikely to be fixed without the help of Wikipedia cleanup volunteers. Editors are STRONGLY encouraged to try and perform clean-up themselves before posting articles to this list. Help in cleaning articles on this list is also greatly appreciated. [[Media:Media:Example.ogg[[Media:Media:Example.ogg]]]] Please keep in mind that the lists here constitute only a small fraction of the Wikipedia articles tagged as needing cleanup, and they may not always be maintained as new articles are tagged or old articles are fixed. The list is still active through a number of editors who do still regularly try to attend to this list. Assistance and participation of other editors is welcome.
You may report confusing/messy articles below and explain why they need to be cleaned-up (grammar, spelling, formatting, order, copyright issues, confusion, etc.). Be sure to cross post your entry on the article's own discussion page for the references of other editors who may not visit this page. Please do not add articles below simply because they are POV or are lacking sources. Make sure to sign your additions with the following format: --~~~~

- Omega Point (Tipler) Like the general reader, unfamiliar at this point with the theory and so unclear what relation (I suspect none) between heat death of brane and increasing computational capacity. Also, current physical evidence doesn't provide a path for the so-called big crunch so unclear if theory not therefore moot, has been adjusted, or what. Lycurgus (talk) 04:48, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
- List of Xbox 360 controller compatible PC games - Contains point of view icons claiming to represent that a "game is best played with an Xbox 360 Controller". Being a casual editor, I'm not sure if that fits in with Wikipedia's standards. Perhaps a more experienced member could help out. Zestos (talk) 00:23, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
- RMI-IIOP - Incomprehensible, possible copy-vio, needs proper intro, rewriting and sources. Another item listed a long time. Needs someone familiar with JAVA. --Lendorien (talk) 13:44, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Lendorien (talk) 15:24, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
- On the talk page the "living person" tag has been included (and a reference to the query immediately below this one on the cleanup page). Jackiespeel (talk) 13:41, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- Every Castlevania page that has a Japanese title of Akumajō Dracula needs to be changed from Devil's Castle Dracula to Demon Castle Dracula. Tailikku (talk) 6:49, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Weird Al Yankovic - This article is disorganized. Some of Yankovic's releases are mentioned in the chronology sections, while others are mentioned in the section just entitled "Music." This disorganization leaves readers unclear of where to look for information. I will try to fix it up to the best of my abilities. Anyone who wants to help is welcome. Bibbly Bob (talk) 22:44, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Southern Illinois - Too long, does not verify hardly any sources, and needs heavy editing or rewriting. Also has an improper tone for it being a region, not an idea. Ruhe1986 (talk) 22:04, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
- What's the Matter With Kansas - Written like an essay, too long Goatstein (talk) 20:02, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

- An editor has done major edits for tone and content. Still needs more edits and sourcing, but it's a far sight better. --Lendorien (talk) 14:07, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- Rudolf Bahro - Possibly copy vio of a german publication that was bablefish translated. Needs heavy editing, and a proper intro. Been listed for 2 years. --Lendorien (talk) 15:06, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
- The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock - Interpretative section is heavily OR and needs rewriting. Rest of article is pretty good. --Lendorien (talk) 16:58, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- Orgasm - Although "citations" exist at the bottom of the article, they are referenced almost nowhere in the text. Furthermore, the text is replete with examples of personal opinion, preference, anecdotes, etc. In short, the article is a meandering mess not worthy for inclusion in a legitimate publication.
- Brute (song)- Pretty much nothing is on this article The Most Angry Pissed off Gaming Nerd 00:01, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- Champaign's weather is going nuts tonight, and we just got through a potential tornado tonight.--Cubs197 (talk) 01:51, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

- Symphonic black metal - This article has multiple issues.It doesnt have any citation,it contains original research and it's more like a personal essay.--Solinothe Wolf 22:40, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- Hull House - The section on the neighborhood is full of redundancies and the citations could be cleaned up a bit throughout the article. Shsilver (talk) 19:40, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
- Samuel Zimmerman - This article is long and confusing, and needs to be cleaned up (perhaps written in simpler form). --Kyuko (talk) 03:41, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
- Fourier optics - This is an important topic, but it is utterly confusing for the layman. The intro is completely inaccessable and the article is even worse. Definitely needs to be rewritten in plain language. See talk page for details. More editors on this article would be helpful. tagged for 2 years. --Lendorien (talk) 14:33, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- Christianity in Haiti - chaotic jumble of facts and ideas with the germ of an acceptable article buried somewhere within. Not a subject I know anything about but it clearly needs help. andy (talk) 08:44, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- United States civil service - this used to just forward to one of the laws that reformed civil service in US, so I dropped some information that was from other pages on Wikipedia (see talk page), but it needs severe help and writeup. It really needs lots of sources, and reorganization Jonverve (talk) 23:00, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
- Chicago Cubs futility theories I think there is a decent article in here somewhere, but it needs to be fixed up, as there are multiple problems with NPOV, prose/grammar, citations, and possible original research amongst others. I'm not even sure the title of the article is the best for the subject. I'm going to be working on it, but I put it up here because I wonder if I'm going to be putting in some effort for something that's going to get deleted. I don't know if this is the right spot to open up the discussion, and I don't want to be the one to do it, but should this article be put up for deletion? RMelon (talk) 20:04, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
- Open market operations Are the accounts of the private banks credited or debited when they buy the (presumably government) financial instruments? The lede sentence is ambiguous about the precise relations but implicitly states (given the context provided by the prior lede text) that when a private bank sells a government security its account is credited and when it buys one it is debited. 71.186.170.112 (talk) 05:12, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
- Pasquale Marino - Not enough quality/quantity for such a prestigious figure in Italian football, also some disorganised pieces of article that needs a bit of polishing up.
- Ranger's Apprentice (series) - Needs major work. Possibly several merges, rewriting, reorganization, sourcing, etc. See talk page for details. More editors tackle this the better. --Lendorien (talk) 17:11, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
- Blue Lagoon Island - Unreferenced; tone editing, fact check. Orphan. See talk page. --Lendorien (talk) 17:00, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
- Evangel University- This is about a University found in Springfield Missouri. The article reads like a guide or advertisement and needs to be improved. There are no details of campus life, courses offered or other information. Article is also based on one source. Also there is a possiable point of view issue or issues.Magnum Serpentine (talk) 11:59, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
- Caliph - The article has several extra sections after the External Links section - probably the result of a merge attempt. I raised the issue on the talk page back in Nov 2008, but nothing got done so I've added a couple of cleanup tags to try to get things going. Unfortunately, I lack expertise in the subject matter so I'm hoping someone with a background in Islamic Studies or something similar will help out. Astronaut (talk) 17:25, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
- Panoramic photography - This article needs many citations, and needs a thorough copy-edit to make it readable. It's not my specialism so I'm unwilling to assert much 'expertise' here. Thanks. Baffle gab1978 (talk) 08:00, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
- Perry Kramer - I very much prefer removing things from this list to adding them, but this one is beyond my ability. The format makes my head hurt but I don't know the subject (not to mention most of the formatting code) well enough to know how to rearrange things. Yikes! -- edi(talk) 20:43, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
- Hmmm... almost exactly the same situation for Shawn Texas. Am I missing something? Is this an acceptable format for athletes? -- edi(talk) 14:43, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

- Money states that currency is the dominant form of money when the opposite is the case, non-currency money, even at the level of base national aggregates such as M1 far outweighs anything that could be called currency (within any boundaries based on current usage) as distinct from general money. Lycurgus (talk) 00:17, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
- Bat Boy: The Musical - I've done some major revisions, but the Synopsis section desperately needs to be condensed and rewritten by someone more bold than I. Some sourcing needed too. --Lendorien (talk) 21:54, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

- Humanity Declaration - Weasel worded accusation based on laughable inference that because they observe Shinto rites the Japanese monarch(s) reaffirm their "mythical" status. 72.228.150.44 (talk) 02:46, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

- Colin Calderwood - Probably an easy fix. Needs to be checked over for non-nuetral superlatives ("Rock at the heart fo the defense", "Horror tackle", etc) and general text edits. --Lendorien (talk) 17:55, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
- Route poisoning - Has been identified as inaccurate and as an ophan, this article has barely been touched since its creation in 2005. Desperately needs attention to deorphan it and correct the errors. Has been posted on the computing WP. --Lendorien (talk) 17:29, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
- Thai_lunar_calendar - I've done a lot of work on this long time listed article.

- Bangladesh M.H.M High School & College, Doha-Qatar needs significant sourcing work. I've done my best with the massive copyediting and other issues that were within my time and abilities, but I don't know enough about the subject area to deal with sourcing the article, since it refers to an expatriate school in a third country, there are a lot of things I just don't understand. The sources provided don't seem to match the article enough, and I can't find independant information, just what is on the school's website. Jo7hs2 (talk) 21:56, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

- Boys in Red Tragedy - Grammar, citations/references could use some cleanup. Expansion of Aftermath and Reaction sections also wouldn't hurt.—Kuzwa (talk)
- William Poole (American 19th cent. NYC bully or gangster) - Intro is short but establishes notability as a political leader.

- Upon review of the article, it is suggested that an authority on the subject replace the list of unneeded "Definitions of terms" and replace it with a history of the use of servers.
- Just did some massive cleanup of the definitions, passing on for further review LaVieEntiere (talk) 06:47, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
- Vasileios Spanoulis Page has been hijacked many many times by Spanoulis' fans and i couldn't keep up with all the edits.

Just to tell you that i had to removed links to videos in youtube one of which was called "Vassilis Spanoulis is better than Ricky Rubio and Rudy Fernandez". Sergiogr ([[User

- List of disaster films Contains many films which fall outside of this category.

- Have changed the format of the references so they are now in order and relate to the article text. Have also made various style and grammar and spelling alterations to the text. The article could do with some more references.IrishPete (talk) 19:42, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

- Academic disciplines is in some major need of revisions. Both in terms of the current bullet format which is making additions to various sections unsymmetrical, as well as major content issues. Currently there are few cited sources, and disciplines of all stripes are being added - including those that do not even have a wiki article. OpusDiabolus (talk) 11:17, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
- Stereotype needs dire work overall, drastically lacking citations, organization, POV, balance of information, and conciseness. Concentrates too much on ethnical discrimination rather than the overall topic itself. Recommended into splitting types of discrimination into sub-articles. Zanibas (talk) 07:35, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
- The article on The Mars Volta has sections (especially those on their various albums) that are a real mess. There are multiple references to dates with no year given; grammar is often horrible; references are most often lacking.

- World War III (section) - The premise of the section Difficulty in determining a "World War" is relevant to the page, but the arguments are confused, and it drifts off the point. Deciding what is meant by "World War" is a pre-requisite to determining what (if any) events will be labelled as "World War III". Perhaps this section should just raise the question and refer to World War, which covers the ground more coherently. Swiveler (talk) 06:23, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

- Equivalence principle has a section "The equivalence principle and the nature of mass" that needs to be looked at by an expert. There are no citations, the English is poor, and it's lacking in any technical information needed to explain and justify the theory that it's talking about. I'd do it myself, but I've never heard of this theory before and so have no idea where to begin. Dbutler1986 (talk) 10:08, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

- Statistical survey - This page is written like class notes.
- Mary Anderson (stage actress) - A large part of this article is taken word for word from a single source. Although the source is cited, this section should be summarized instead, especially since it is not set off in quotes and is in first person. CClio333 04:33, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
- The Second Sex - The verbosity of this article, particularly the section Content of The Second Sex, makes it very confusing. It appears to be an essay or thesis but is so under-referenced that one cannot tell where the information and commentary is coming from. As a general reader I lack the knowledge base to sort out opinion from quotation from original research.Trilobitealive (talk) 01:41, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

- Arguments for and against drug prohibition - reads like a debate, some arguments are very weak e.g. Needs to be gone over for NPOV. Also contains serious sourcing issues. The article uses three different methods of sourcing. Needs to be converted to footnote intext references for entirety of article. Sections may need to be merged or reorganized. A very messy article.—Lendorien 19:43, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

- Clinical_depression#Hypomania Urgent attention of an expert needed ! I (doctor) consider it factually wrong. Anxiety and panic are mostly not part of hypomania. Hypomania belongs to bipolar disorder not unipolar depression. And more and more. Chaotic written too.—jmak 08:23, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
- Translation - Has some readability issues. Also seems to be the subject of an editing skirmish between people who are in the field. The result is an article that reads like a textbook and is not very accessible to the non-expert. Man It's So Loud In Here 16:55, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

- Jealousy is based upon an inaccurate/limited definition of the word "jealousy." Does not cover any of the other meanings of the word beyond that in a romantic context. Includes poorly organized, non-encylopaedic content. Entire 3rd paragraph is such high-level summary that it reads like a elementary school project - was worse than useless, far below the quality I've come to expect from Wikipedia. Punctuation is poor -I'm sure I could go on, but overall, I felt this was a very disappointing article.
- Feminism and the Oedipus complex - Messy stylistically; the section on Deutsch reads like it was automatically translated or translated badly, & other sections are haphazard & unclear. All sections need more detail and a generally more thorough, professional treatment to be useful. PoetrixViridis 04:07, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Why? — CZmarlin 02:26, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

- Mii (Jungle de Ikou!) - This article is about a cartoon featuring a ten year old girl <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User:MarkS/XEB/live.css&action=raw&ctype=text/css&dontcountme=s">with large breasts. The writers of this article do not deserve good faith; the depraved tone is hideously unencyclopedic. A gx7 02:49, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
- Fay B. Kaigler Children's Book Festival - Seems to me someone just typed it straight from a book or typed it. Considered deletion tag, but I think it's salvageable. Wikified a bit of it and added categories, but it's massive. Hourick 22:15, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

- Lawrence Dimick - This article is clumsily written, with halting grammar. The headings make it unclear whether the section "fictional biography" is missing entirely (other than the heading itself) or made up of subsections that merely relate the plot of Reservoir Dogs. The entire article is written with overly basic sentences; this may seem like an odd complaint, but read the article and you'll see what I mean. Minaker 06:38, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

- Filippino Lippi: (Renaissance painter) - I'm still relatively new at all this, but it seems to me that this article is completely lacking in references. I would tag it, but am still uncomfortable with taking such liberties. There also seems to me some NPOV violations, given a lack of critical reference in such sentences as this, "His first works greatly resemble those of Botticelli's, but with less sensitivity and subtlety" and "Eventually Lippi's style evolved into a more personal and effective one...." I hope a more experienced editor might have time to take a look and decide if those issues need tagging.—Moonriddengirl 14:12, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

- Smooth jazz - Numerous Wikipedia policy concerns, including WP:RS, WP:V and in turn WP:N as well as WP:NPOV, WP:NOR, WP:NOT#DIR and WP:EL. The article though is about a major jazz genre with worldwide radio coverage, and so is notable and in my view, not eligible for AfD, but notability isn't established in the article due to no citations or references.

- Channel 4 programming is a new article that combines material lifted from Channel 4 (which was becoming too big) and material merged from the former List of Channel 4 television programmes. It is divided into genres of programming some of which are highly specific with others being vague and mixed-up. It also contains content from many different editors, describing specific programmes individually, which tends to make the prose seem very disjointed. It generally needs a tidier structure, but given the amount of content, is a pretty big endeavour. It is also separately tagged as requiring references.—Fursday 00:02, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

- Supernatural - This is an important article, but unfortunately it contains many forward claims that require attribution to reliable sources, chief among them a strong support of methodological naturalism in science. It lacks references for many of its other claims, which I have marked with "citation needed" tags. It uses numerous weasel words. "Competing Explanations and Criteria of Preference" as well as the end of "Alleged instances of supernaturalization" have a naturalistic POV and should be cut down unless reliable sources can be found to support their statements. See what I wrote under "Unsourced." Good day.Schmitty120 19:35, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

- Dolphins-Jets rivalry - Lots of information (perhaps too much), but unencyclopedic tone throughout much of the article; too much for me to rewrite on my own. Could use some copyediting too, perhaps.—Highway99 06:30, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- Noelle Pikus Pace - This article is poorly written and from a first person perspective. The person is real and seems notable but the text of the article needs much attention. Sadly more than I hace this morning. JBEvans 10:55, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- General Hospital - This article is in need of some basic cleanup and reformatting. If left untended, it will essentially turn into a recap/fansite page. I don't have a problem with posting storyline-type information, but it needs to be brought up to WP Quality standards. Also, fans keep adding new couple and supercouple pages for practically every set of characters, most of which is in blatant violation of WP:NOR. I would think most of the "couple" pages are good candidates for deletion. A few, like Luke and Laura Spencer are definitely Notable for their contribution to the modern Soap Opera, but most are frivolous and unnecessary.—66.91.225.99 02:34, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Library - Could probably be divided up into several articles: one section has a request for development.—Jackiespeel 19:09, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
- Rancho San Joaquin Middle School - Seems a little one-sided, don't you think. It is only talking about one humanities teacher, Kay Gee, there are other humanities teachers and other teachers there who deserve to have their name on their as well, not just her. Please do something about it, I didn't want to touch it, but I might fix it a bit... just a bit.
- Shady Side Academy - May read too much like a promotional.—Mike Rosoft 13:56, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
March 1–11, 2007
- Intermolecular force - Citations need to be added.
- Varalaru - History of Godfather - Many grammatical and clarity errors. Much of the content essential to a good article on a film is there, but it is also confusing to read. Most of the spelling errors have been addressed, but the original author(s) may not be familiar enough with English (no criticism intended). A good copy editor is essential, and familiarity with the film may be beneficial. The article will benefit from much paring of excessive detail, and significant citing. Also, many, many incidences of what appears to be original research, or at least, personal interpretation. :— Jim Dunning talk : 03:30, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
- Country pop - No sources, informal and awkward style (incl. unnecessarily long, if not run-on, sentences), poor grammar.
- The Woods Hole, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Steamship Authority - This article is organized poorly.
- Privatization - Most of this article suffers from a total lack of sources. Furthermore, it has relatively little information on its actual subject; actual facts about privatization are overwhelmed by information about arguments pro and con. Even discussions of actual privatizations tend to overemphasize information about the arguments surrounding it relative to other facts, which is a serious information bias. Elliotreed 19:35, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- Praieira revolt - This article needs cleanup. Needs more context and details. It's badly in need of sourcing and a general reorginaziation of the info. It reads like a philosophical essay rather than an article and is light on any real meat.—Lendorien 00:57, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
- Sathya Sai Baba movement - Possibly many problems with the article. The only serious contributor to the article (user:Andries) is or will be banned by the Wikipedia:arbitration committee. See talk:Sathya Sai Baba movement for a description of the possible problems. Andries 19:43, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- Animal cell article: needs more info, I was looking up information for my science test tomorrow and there was only the definitions of the three main parts of the cell.
- Much more information can be found at human cells.—Andries 19:28, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

- Jauhar - This article seems to have been patched together from other Wikipedia material and original work from a non-native English speaker. Even if the grammatical errors were fixed, this article could still probably stand to be completely rewritten, referenced, and generally wikified. - Lukeonia1 09:10, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
- Libertà condizionata - Same as above. Both articles were created by the same user, and are plagued with basic structural problems. Appears to be talking about the parole system in Italy - someone with knowledge of that would have an easier time cleaning this up. -Cue the Strings 17:23, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
- Tom Monaghan - This article has a severe lack of references, and have some NPOV issues as well.—Kristjan Wager 13:09, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- Adult Theater - Needs lots of cleanup, including fixing references etc Rtcoles 21:09, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- Rupert Lowe This article has a lot of information, but it is poorly structured. The tone is too conversational and there are numerous uncited POV assertions.+
- Mariavite Church thorough/comprehensive but slightly POV/over-favourable. Jackiespeel 17:07, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
- Geophagy - Screwy formatting and wikification, and an over-emphasis on cultural issues at the expense of medical content.
- Muv-Luv - This article is written in a very confusing way. The character information appears to be the central feature rather than the main story itself. Apparently, the information came from a Japanese source, so it needs a cleanup to meet up the standards of an article written in English. Thank you, Minako-Chan* 14:37, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
- Broken Sky & Broken Sky Characters - Need to be a lot more thorough. - Unsigned use
- Galactic North & Revelation Space - Both unfinished and need to be completed. Not all the stories in Galactic north are even in the article.
- Political communications - Needs a more worldwide worldview; Sources.—Martpol 13:14, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
- New Zealand local body elections 2004 - has a list of the winner of one mayoral election, and one ward result, and the rest is a list of councils. - Kripto 22:57, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

- Psychological warfare- Poorly written, reads like a bad high school paper. Tagged this as suggested on the talk page.
- Muraqabah - Doesn't use sections, is a guide on meditating or something (possibly shouldn't be in Wikipedia?), I'm not also sure this is WP:N. Maybe someone should nominate it for deletion, but at the very least it needs substantial work.—SLi 19:08, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
- Nat Tarnopol - Either an unwikified textdump or perhaps a copyvio. AecisBravado 19:33, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
- Water cannon - No references.—RedHillian 04:21, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- Special Assessment Tax (mistakenly created at First article) - unwikified, possibly copied from somewhere. - Mike Rosoft 22:38, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Yellow Pages - other countries and regions section needs to be cleaned up re. URLs, layout and general content.
- Cooperative and others (many here, notably Co-operative economics and Co-operative Federalism/Cooperative federalism mess) - Mixed usage in text within most of those articles (cooperative versus co-operative) and mixed usage between articles makes for confusing in-text links. This would require someone with admin powers to complete some of the needed moves, but otherwise it just needs someone with a lot of time to comb through and correct the spellings to how the article is titled. --Rkitko 08:10, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
