Mark of the Year[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
Hi, i've listed this article for peer review becuase I think it has the potential to become a featured list, and I'm willing to work on any errors and fix up anything that needs fixing to bring it up to featured status. Thanks, Superflewis (talk) 03:29, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments - this can make it to FL but only with some considerable work. Here are my suggestions.

  • References should be placed immediately following punctuation where possible, per WP:CITE.

  • Typos aplenty so run a spell checker over it. E.g. "conjuction", "reeives".

  • What's a CV?
 removed - I used similar wording to that in the official website --Superflewis(talk) 10:09, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just checking, is "recognizes " Australian English or should it be "recognises"?
'Recognize' is the standard spelling - this is deduced tby the fact that it has over 100 Million hits on google, compared to 'recognises' with 20 million.
  • "prestigious title " this is POV.

  • 5000 ->5,000.

I found it in flickr which is general CC 2.0 providing you quote the author. Maybe in this case just to be safe we should relist it as {non-free historic image}?
  • Explain AFL before using the acronym (i.e. put (AFL) after the first use).

  • Same with VFL.
 Done --Superflewis(talk) 10:18, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Portrait images should use the upright parameter per WP:MOS#Images.
 Done --Superflewis(talk) 10:18, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why is "AFL Mark of the Year Winners" under the main section heading?
 Done --Superflewis(talk) 10:18, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Selection Process" should be "Selection process" per WP:HEAD.
 Done --Superflewis(talk) 10:18, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • That section needs some work - too many really short paragraphs. Merge and improve the flow.
 Done --Superflewis(talk) 11:28, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Winner short sort by surname - use the {{sortname}} template.
 Done --Superflewis(talk) 11:28, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note and Video cols do not need to be sortable.
How is this done?
  • You need to identify still active players and goal of the year winners with something in addition to colours per WP:MOS#COLORS - e.g. an asterisk or a dagger.

  • "1 handed screamer " far too POV - plus should be one-handed.
 Done --Superflewis(talk) 11:42, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Trivia sections are discouraged. Work on adding this information, where pertinent, into the rest of the article.
 Done --Superflewis(talk) 11:42, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • References need publisher and title and accessdate where missing.
How about the youtube links?
