This article is not formatted in accordance with WP:MOS. Notably, the WP:LEAD is way too short for this article and the playing career should have some subsections.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 21:31, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WP:LEAD
  • This LEAD needs to be expanded to about 3 paragraphs and about 1500-2500 characters of readable prose. The current 1 paragraph, 499 character version is too short.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 21:31, 21 June 2012 (UTC) Done[reply]
  • Please summarize each section of the article (note that I suggest adding subsections to the playing career).--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 21:31, 21 June 2012 (UTC) Done[reply]
Baseball career
  • "When O'Farrell was injured during the 1924 season" - Do you have a date and opponent?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:18, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • "setting a single-season home run record for catchers" that would stand until YYYY when Foo broke the record. (if Foo played in the AL, note how long the NL record stood).--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:18, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done Hartnett broke his own single-season home run record in 1930, then Roy Campanella set a new record in 1953.Orsoni (talk) 12:16, 27 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • 1927 and 28 seem to be season where he got a lot of MVP votes. Can you say anything about these seasons?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:18, 22 June 2012 (UTC) Done[reply]
Homer in the Gloamin'
  • "August 28, 1939, he broke Ray Schalk's Major League record of 1,727 career games as a catcher". Say who broke the record and when.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:18, 22 June 2012 (UTC) Done[reply]
  • Unexplained MVP votes in 1936. Try to say something about this season.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:18, 22 June 2012 (UTC) Done[reply]
    • I can't find any mention of why he received MVP votes in 1936. He followed a great, MVP-winning 1935 season, with a merely good season in 1936 with a .307 batting average, so some of the votes may have been from the residual effect his 1935 season had on the memories of sportswriters.Orsoni (talk) 12:16, 27 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Career statistics
  • I am putting this article on hold. Please respond to each concern on the subsequent line. I will monitor this review and reevaluated it in seven days.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:20, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I believe this article meets WP:WIAGA and am passing it now. If this article ever goes to FAC, I would like to see who Hartnett surpassed in establishing catcher records of 236 home runs, 1,179 runs batted in, 1,912 hits, and 396 doubles.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:29, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thank you for your review. I will edit to add who he passed for the career home run lead. The other career stats may take some deeper research.Orsoni (talk) 01:32, 29 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
