Czech Republic

 * Nominator(s): Itsyoungrapper (talk) 17:20, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

This article is about the Czech Republic. I think it's not of the best articles on worldwide Wikipedia. It's good sourced, imaged and described article. Thank you Itsyoungrapper (talk) 17:20, 15 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Oppose and suggest early closure Sorry Itsyoungrapper, but from a quick skim of the article the FA criteria are clearly not met, and the article would require substantial amounts of work to meet them. For instance, it has large amounts of unreferenced materiel, including entire paragraphs: one of the FA criteria is that all content is cited to reliable sources. I also note that the history of this country since its formation in 1993 in its current form is only accorded about two-thirds of a paragraph, which is clearly inadequate and that some data is greatly out of date (for instance, the figure on the country's military budget is for 2006).
