Checking against GA criteria

 * GA review (see here for criteria)

That's enough, the prose is poor, this article needs a heavy copyedit, GA review is not the place for this so I would take it to peer review because this article needs some serious work
 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * Lead does not summarise the article at all, there is no mention of other uses or future in the lead
 * "After the final expansion of the Camp de Les Corts stadium, there was no further room for expansion of the facilities and after two back-to-back La Liga titles in 1948 and 1949, the club began to make plans for a new stadium, which would later be known as the Camp Nou." A very long sentence with a number of problems. 1) you introduce the Camp de Los Corts as if the reader is familiar with it, which is not the case, why was there no further room for expansion? 2) the entire sentence is unreferenced
 * "Another version is that the signing of László Kubala in June 1950, who would later go on to score 196 goals in 256 matches, necessitated the construction of a larger stadium due to his highly attractive play" Another version, another version of what? you need to make this explicit
 * "The building of Camp Nou commenced on 28 March 1954, before a crowd of 60,000 Barça fans." Ok so 60,000 barca fans turned up to watch the building of the stadium, I find this hard to believe, if it's true it definitely needs a reference
 * "The first stone of the future Camp Nou" future doesn't need to be used as its redundant
 * "The construction took three years and ended 24 September 1957" on the needs to be added before the date
 * "The stadium capacity has varied greatly over the years, opening at 106,146, but growing to 121,749 for the 1982 FIFA World Cup." Firstly this sentence is left alone as a paragraph which it should not be, it has no place in the history section, it's more suited to a records section, secondly it's OR at the moment, it needs a reference
 * "In May 1972, Camp Nou hosted its first European Cup Winners Cup final between Rangers and Dynamo Moscow, with the final being 3-2 in Rangers' favor." very poor prose, plus the score needs an endash between it
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * No at all, history section is choppy and includes some odd bits of information, no structures and facilities section, transport or records section as in other football stadium articles
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * This article clearly fails to meet the GA criterion of reasonably well written. Not listed. NapHit (talk) 16:53, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
