Manila

 * Nominator(s): DragosteaDinTei 13:13, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured article because the article has the qualities to be a featured article with good citations and correct grammar usage along with images. DragosteaDinTei 13:13, 14 April 2010 (UTC) IMO, the article is quite far away from FA standards and I would urge the nominator to withdraw the FA nomination and instead, start a peer review, where further suggestions for improvements can be requested. -- Redtigerxyz Talk 18:18, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comments. A link to Divisoria, which redirects back to Manila. Dead external links to http://www.tourism.gov.ph/explore_phil/place_details.asp?content=description&province=80 and http://www.haifa.muni.il/Cultures/en-US/city/CitySecretary_ForeignAffairs/EngActs.htm.

 * Oppose:
 * Ref-improve tag since September 2009.
 * Culture and contemporary life, Places of interest, Government, Education sections hardly have any references
 * The article has tags. Numeric stats like that the table in "Districts" needs references.
 * Violation of WP:LAYOUT
 * Organization problems: Places of interest has a long list of "General Landmarks", without giving information/context about them.


 * Recommend peer review, this article is not ready for FAC. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 02:31, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
