This article is a long way from Good article status unfortunately. Large portions of it are unreferenced, and among those citations that do exist are some dead links (eg 124), and many are formatted poorly. The article lacks comprehensiveness on this player who has had such a long and broad career. The prose is inconsistent, and poor in places. In the future, it would be a travesty if this article does not become featured, but at the moment I think it is too unstable to ever reach Good or Featured status. But let's keep trying!


 * GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * Inconsistent prose, poor in places.
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Not enough references, and not formatted consistently or accurately.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * Not broad enough, and also goes into far too much detail in other places.
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * Could be better in places, but not so bad as it could be in such an article.
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * Plenty of reverts and changes in the last month.
 * 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):
 * Images all check out okay.
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
