I believe Bullfighting fails 1.(c) "Factually accurate", as it has almost no citations (one inline at last count). I have an interest in the subject, but no real knowledge in it, nor really time to learn enough to add the citations it sorely needs. --Falcorian (talk) 00:53, 4 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Prose is discouraging from the outset. The first paragraph is one looong sentence, going into unnecessary detail in places, and making it very hard to follow. Lead isn't a summary of the article. Obvious lack of sources. Trebor 23:35, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Article contains many tacked on 'orphan' sentences, and is littered with redundant text. Uses lenghty bullet lists and seems to attract a lot of extraneous images. Aside from extensive work referencing, needs a thorough copyedit. + Ceoil 23:40, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
 * It needs some more editing. I'm not pro-references, so I'll not advocate nor go against people adding more references.-- Saoshyant  talk / contribs (please join WP:Portugal or WP:SPOKEN) 15:25, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment There's no original author for this article; was nom'd in Apr 2004 by an editor who found it via the random button. + Ceoil 21:41, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Move to FARC &mdash; fails 1a and 1c, and there has not been a significant surge of referencing. &mdash; Deckiller 10:36, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

FARC commentary

 * Suggested FA criteria concerns are citations (1c) and prose (1a). Marskell 07:51, 21 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Strong remove per above reasons. &mdash; Deckiller 13:30, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Remove - Article does not meet the current guidelines, it's really that simple. --Falcorian (talk) 15:47, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Remove as nobody is stepping up to work on it. Trebor 16:08, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Remove per 1c. LuciferMorgan 22:37, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Remove no progress. Ceoil 01:28, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
