 * Nominator(s): RRD13 (talk) 09:12, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured article because the article has greatly improved over the past few months.This article also passes all the criteria for FA.Also Sunil is one of the best footballer of India .RRD13 (talk) 09:12, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose and suggest speedy closure/withdrawal. This is nowhere ready, as the grammatic horror that is the third paragraph and structural horror of the numerous tiny sections make clear. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:28, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Can you please tell me which section you are meanin? RRD13 (talk) 10:33, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Sure. Any section. The most blatant is Personal Life. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:14, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Oppose There is almost nothing in "Personal Life", and the article begs a thorough rewrite. It is simply not ready. --Sp33dyphil ©hatontributions 15:23, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Oppose: It's not altogether the nominator's fault that he/she was misled by a premature GA grading into thinking this article was worthy of FAC nomination, but it's a terrible advert for the GA process. The article is a candidate for a swift GAR, but is seriously misplaced here. Brianboulton (talk) 16:16, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Oppose: Man. What happened with this one? The article was in alright shape when it was reviewed and promoted for GA. Due to the popularity of the player (I suppose) the article quickly unraveled. Needs a rewrite.  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 00:22, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Closing comment -- I'll be archiving this shortly. In addition to the above comments, RRD13, pls note that information in a Featured Article (and indeed GA) needs to be fully cited to reliable sources, which this is not. If you are able to address the shortfalls, pls consider taking it to Peer Review before returning to FAC. In any case, per FAC instructions, pls do not nominate this or any article here for at least two weeks. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 00:47, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
