List of Kansas City Chiefs head coaches
I believe this list is fully capable of being promoted to FL status.  conman33  (. . .talk)  21:50, 3 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment "Dallas Texans" does not need to be bold. Gary King ( talk ) 23:27, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

 *  Oppose Support for now
 * A five-paragraph lead for 10 coaches? That's too many, need to trim to 3 at most.
 * I was told to write an expansive lead, and I gave every detail possible. Now it's down to three and if it's now too short, somebody else can write one.  conman33  (. . .talk)  20:33, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
 * No need to bold "head coaches"
 * Herman Edwards is the team's current coach... should appear at the end of the lead.
 * ...competed for three years known as... - Confusing a little, try to reword.
 * The lead tells the reader that the franchise was known as Dallas Texans until 1969 at least while the table says until 1962. Which one is right?
 * Lead does not mention when and why the franchise was renamed to Chiefs and relocated to Kansas.
 * The Texans moved to Kansas City, MISSOURI and were renamed the Chiefs in 1963.  conman33  (. . .talk)  20:33, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
 * See MOS:UNLINKYEARS
 * Unbold the word "present"
 * The caption of the Hank's bust is too long; try to shorten it by removing info you already mentioned in either the lead or the table.
 * Same with Cunningham's image. We already know that he was the head coach, so you can just leave the second sentence.
 * What makes "Sports Encyclopedia" and "Hickok Sports" reliable sources?
 * Maybe you should ask that to whoever promoted List of Green Bay Packers head coaches, and List of Indianapolis Colts head coaches and see what's "reliable."  conman33  (. . .talk)  20:33, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
 * The HallofFame website should be cited. It is not a general reference for this list.
 * Don't strike comments Next time, please don't strike my comments. Let me decide whether you fixed the problems listed.-- Crzycheetah 02:46, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Comments
 * Five paras in the lead is a little excessive.
 * Put (NFL) after first National Football League and then just use the abbreviation from then on.
 * Put (AFL) after American Football League so it makes NFL-AFL understandable to non experts.
 * inbetween is not one word.
 * "was later hired as the team's coach after the Chiefs traded their fourth-round draft selection in 2006 to the New York Jets." - can you explain the relevance of the fourth round draft trade to his appointment?
 * Regular Season in the table could just be Regular season.
 * "after 7 games" seven.
 * The en-dashes look left aligned while the numbers are right aligned in the playoffs column. Looks odd.
