Expo 67[edit]
I believe this article, which is currently a GA-class article, meets the criteria for a FA-class article. It is stable, well written, and has good usage of imagery.--Abebenjoe 18:49, 27 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment one image requires a caption, but once rectified, I offer my full support —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hadseys (talk • contribs) 20:24, 27 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I think I added the caption to the offending image...the Expo 67 poster designed by Marsil Caron Barkes & Associates?--Abebenjoe 02:51, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose: I believe the ""References and notes" sections needs to be split, and it seems to me that the footnotes are heavy on a handful of sources. The "Pavilions" participating countries list could be reformatted, and perhaps the countries could be linked. has it been peer reviewed? There seem to be a few locations of poor grammar and pointless information. For example, "The final crowds started to depart" and "A fireworks display went on for an hour". The copy is also heavy in the passive voice. --Kmsiever 15:59, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
