Girl Scouts of the USA[edit]

Take a look and see what would need to be done to make this an FA class article. Darthgriz98 18:12, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Peerreviewer script is an easy and clear indicator of some things that still need attention:

  • Consider adding more links to the article; per WP:MOS-L and WP:BTW, create links to relevant articles.
  • Per WP:MOSNUM, there should be a non-breaking space -   between a number and the unit of measurement. For example, instead of 18mm, use 18 mm, which when you are editing the page, should look like: 18 mm.[1]
  • Per WP:CONTEXT and WP:BTW, years with full dates should be linked; for example, link January 15, 2006, but do not link January 2006.
  • Watch for redundancies that make the article too wordy instead of being crisp and concise. (You may wish to try Tony1's redundancy exercises.)
    • Vague terms of size often are unnecessary and redundant - “some”, “a variety/number/majority of”, “several”, “a few”, “many”, “any”, and “all”. For example, “All pigs are pink, so we thought of a number of ways to turn them green.”
  • Please ensure that the article has gone through a thorough copyediting so that it exemplifies some of Wikipedia's best work. See also User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 2a. [2]

You may wish to browse through User:AndyZ/Suggestions for further ideas. Thanks, Wim van Dorst (Talk) 20:50, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ok wikilinks have been added, still a few more that can be taken care of. Copyedits, they can always be done, I've done most of the article a few times over. Darthgriz98 20:44, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
