Talk:A. J. Foyt IV

Mid Importance?
I disagree with this assesment. A. J. has not even ran a cup race or full Busch season. He seems hardly even important in NASCAR. He should receive low importance. Casey14 00:42, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Foyt is of mid importance because he is A. J. Foyt's grandson and because he drove in 3 Indy 500's. -Drdisque 01:29, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Importance can be different for each WikiProject. He is definitely Mid for American Open Wheel Racing and I agree with Casey that he is Low for NASCAR. Royal broil  20:14, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Good article nomination on hold
This article's Good Article promotion has been put on hold. During review, some issues were discovered that can be resolved without a major re-write. This is how the article, as of December 25, 2007, compares against the six good article criteria:


 * 1. Well written?: Pass
 * 2. Factually accurate?: Pass
 * 3. Broad in coverage?: Pass
 * 4. Neutral point of view?: Pass
 * 5. Article stability? Pass
 * 6. Images?: Pass

Please address these matters soon and then leave a note here showing how they have been resolved. After 48 hours the article should be reviewed again. If these issues are not addressed within 7 days, the article may be failed without further notice. Thank you for your work so far.

Information in the sections regarding statistical information isn't sourced within this article for easier and quicker varifiable information. Images are needed. Please address these issues as I feel they are minor and can be taken care of quickly. I'll return to finalize my review. — Jahnx (talk) 19:54, 25 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I've added an image that I got permission to use. I have tried to cite everything I can, but it's hard to cite something that is in table format. If you can think of a better way, feel free to move the citation. -Drdisque (talk) 05:14, 26 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Thank you for updating the article in area in which I felt concerned with. I believe this article to be well written about A. J. Foyt IV's sports career, I was able to verify information, the article is well referenced, good grammar and spelling, and for the majority of the article maintains a NPOV. I feel this article meets the Good Article minimum and needs to be worked on further to maintain its Good Article status. The addition of a Biography section, adding to section lengths, and removal of comments like The crash broke Junqueira's back and blame was placed mainly on Foyt. in which flirts with a NPOV and is referenced from a sports writers opinion. The Personal life section could be merged into a newly created section for his Biography. The addition of images, section length, and references should the main focus momentarily. Use the article about Phil Simms as an example in improving this article if you need too. Jahnx (talk) 08:23, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
