I've listed this article for peer review because I believe it has GA potential. I am well aware that references needs a touch up but I want to know what else could be done.

I removed the semi-automated peer review (SAPR) because it should not be included here for the following reasons: 1) when the SAPR is included here, this peer review request does not show up at WP:PR for others to see it and make comments; 2) this saves space at WP:PR; and 3) this follows the directions above, i.e. "Please do not ... paste in semi-automated peer reviews below: link to them instead." You can see these for the current version of the article at any time, just by clicking on "automated tips" in the Toolbox in the upper right corner of this peer review.

Suggestions – In addition to this semi-automatic peer review, I have some first-glance suggestions:

  • The appearances table is too wide considering the content is so thin.
  • Remove the flags from the host countries as done on the FIFA World Cup article.
  • Capitalize the n/a in the winners table.
  • The notes section underneath the winners table needs a clean up; something consistent.

  • Fixed the appearance table
  • Flags removed
  • N/A capitalized
  • Notes section fixed.

Visual problem – Just a minor fix here because one of the sections looks messy.--MicroX (talk) 05:53, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any problems when I go to the page. What are you talking about? Jamen Somasu (talk) 16:03, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That's why I put a 16:9 screen shot in case it differed from the 4:3 screens. The 16:9 screens have the map and tables sandwich the text in Format and participation. --MicroX (talk) 21:57, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I put a clear template below the section to fix the display problem on 16:9 screens. --MicroX (talk) 23:00, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

New info – Looking at some old regulations, I just learned that the runner-up of the Copa America receives a trophy called "Copa Bolivia". I found this in the 2004 Copa America regulations. I think this piece of information should be included. --MicroX (talk) 22:06, 6 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I saw Argentina receiving some BS trophy but I never knew that it was actually called something. I can't find a shred of information about it. Jamen Somasu (talk) 15:45, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
In Article 2, it says:


The regulations confirms the existence of this runner-up trophy but it is unclear how long it has existed. --MicroX (talk) 08:41, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, yeah, I found that on the CA regulations site but the information about the cup is only one sentence long. I can't find images, links, nothing about this. Jamen Somasu (talk) 10:52, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
