Personally, I would say this article is some way short of meeting the FA criteria. I would suggest starting with a GA review or a peer review before bringing it to FAC. Kosack (talk) 07:29, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment by Kosack

While not an image review by any stretch, I have noticed that
 * Comment by Wna247
 * Neymar Jr presentation - Press conference for PSG 001.jpg - is a watermarked image
 * File:PSG logos.png - these are logos of a brand, whether they are past logos or not they will still be copyrighted might need a FUR statement creating for the copyright.
 * File:PSG_iconic_shirts.png - Again same as above for these. However on other articles I have seen the Football Kit Template used to show previous kits in a article instead of a picture. See Manchester United Kit evolution for an example.

Also I see a lot of web and news sites could certain aspects of the article be referenced from a published reputable book sources.

Would agree with Kosack that I think withdrawing and opening up at Peer Review would be more productive. Anyway some comments..

 * Can you make a stub page for the predecessor club Stade St Germain? It currently ports though to french wikipedia directly (not of much use to a non-French speaker like me).


 * Actually, if the club un-merged to PSG and Paris FC, is the new club then synonymous with the old one (Stade St Germain)? What do sources say?


 * Also, I understand the History section is a summary of the daughter article History of Paris Saint-Germain F.C., but it could e a little larger and give a more coherent chronology.

Had a bit of a look, but I think it needs going over before FAC. Happy to help at Peer Review. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 03:47, 29 May 2020 (UTC)


 * The writing is flowery in places and needs copyediting.

Given the comments above and the fact there's been no responses from the nominator, I've going to archive this. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 08:07, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
