GA Reassessment

This article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force in an effort to ensure all listed Good articles continue to meet the Good article criteria. In reviewing the article, I have found there are a large number of issues that need to be addressed.--Jackyd101 (talk) 23:20, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

• It is reasonably well written.

  a (prose): b (MoS):

The prose is not great, perhaps 5/10. Many paragraphs are short and stubby.--Jackyd101 (talk) 23:20, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

• It is factually accurate and verifiable.

  a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

Sourcing is fine, but see issues with completeness below.--Jackyd101 (talk) 23:20, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

• It is broad in its coverage.

  a (major aspects): b (focused):

Article has a very poor personal life section (see Brian Urlacher for a good example). In addition, it has poor weighting. The most influential years of his career were spect at Celtic, but this is given less space than Barcelona and only slightly more space than his brief spell at Manchester United. It is also a year out of date. His time at various clubs needs to be expanded to provide the correct weighting for that period of his career.--Jackyd101 (talk) 23:20, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

• It follows the neutral point of view policy.

  a (fair representation): b (all significant views):

See above.

• It is stable.

  

• It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic.

  a (tagged and captioned): b (lack of images does not in itself exclude GA): c (non-free images have fair use rationales):

At least one image is suspicious.--Jackyd101 (talk) 07:31, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

• Overall:

  a Pass/Fail:

I will check back in no less than seven days. If someone is willing to commit to making a serious effort to improve this article, let me know here or on my talk page in that time period. I will then go through the article with that person and make a detailed list of specific improvements to be worked on in addition to the major problems outlined above. If no one comes forward, the article will be delisted. If improved after it has been delisted, it may be nominated at WP:GAN again and if anyone takes serious exception to my review then please address it at WP:GAR. Feel free to drop a message on my talk page if you have any questions. Regards--Jackyd101 (talk) 23:20, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello, I will try to contribute some more information, mostly about his Celtic career. Jmorrison230582 (talk) 22:46, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Thankyou for your additions, they were an improvement, but not enough to save the article. Many of the issues raised above are still extant and beyond the above mentioned help little has been done to address them. This article is now delisted. If you want it relisted, fix the things mentioned above and relist it at WP:GAN. I will be happy to give advice during this process if required.--Jackyd101 (talk) 03:11, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
