List of Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Opening Day starting pitchers
We are nominating this list because we believe it meets the FL criteria and is consistent with other Opening Day starting pitcher featured lists. --  SRE.K.A nnoyomous .L. 24 [c] and Rlendog (talk) 03:21, 29 October 2008 (UTC)


 * '''Review by


 * Mike Witt has the record for most Opening Day starts for the Angels, with five. - the first for should be of.
 * That doesn't seem to sound right. Just going through some other Wikipedia articles of record holders (admittedly not featured articles) they seem to use "record for" in this context.  For example, from Hank Aaron:"His most notable achievement was setting the MLB record for most career home runs with 755...", and from Lou Gehrig:"His record for most career grand slams (23) still stands as of 2008."  I think it should say "record of" 3-0 if I was describing his win-loss record, but "record for" number of wins when describing the category he is a recordholder for.

 * Addressed. I deleted the phrase "record for" entirely, which should resolve this. Rlendog (talk) 00:26, 30 October 2008 (UTC)


 * He has a record of one win and three losses (1–3) with one no decision in those starts. - comma after (1-3).
 * Done Rlendog (talk) 23:24, 29 October 2008 (UTC)


 * He also has the best won–loss record in Opening Day starts for the Angels with his 3–0 record. - should be win-loss not won-loss. Also, instead of with his 3-0 record how about which is 3-0?

 * The Angels played in the World Series championship games once in their history, in 2002, and they won the World Series that year.  - redundant to keep repeating the same thing over and over, --> The Angels have played in one World Series championship game in their history, which they won in 2002.

 * The publisher for each ref should be linked, if someone clicks the 10th ref first and not ref #1, they will not see the publisher because it is only in #1.
