Going to quick-fail this nomination, as the nominator has never edited the article. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 23:12, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is in decent shape otherwise, mainly because Red Director has been a significant contributor. If Red Director decided to nominate the article, it would be worth giving a more in-depth review. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 23:12, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As of now...

Some sections have too many short paragraphs (e.g. 2006 and 2008)
Some sections have the opposite problem and are just one big paragraph (e.g. 2016 and 2017)
Some sections resemble WP:PROSELINE a bit too much: On 1 January, Gore did this. On 2 February, he did that. On 3 March, Gore did something else. (e.g. 2004; and the lead suffers a bit from this problem as well)
The personal life section could be re-worked so that it focuses more on Gore himself instead of the other players mentioned. There is also a little bit too much detail on the other players that could be presented more concisely. Given Gore's age, I would guess there would be more material on Gore himself to include in this section. Right now, there is really only the charitable work outside of his family. For the formatting, the quotes shouldn't italicized.
You could add a "Playing style" section.
As Gore has played a lot of seasons, he could have a "Legacy" section (something like the "Career awards and highlights" section, but as prose).
