King's College London
This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this article for peer review because I believe it has the potential to become a GA. It has undergone major changes since the last nominations in 2007-08. I look forward to constructive suggestions and remarks which can help take this article towards a GA.

Thanks very much, Merlaysamuel : Speechify  08:48, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

Brianboulton comments: This nomination for peer review looks premature. There is basic work to be done before it is ready, in particular:
 * The lead is supposed to be a broad summary of the contents of the article, not a collection of facts. The detailed statistical information should be given in the body of the article, and cited there.
 * The History section looks thin and incomplete.
 * The article is seriously under-referenced. The "Campus" section has scarely any references, and other sections e.g. History, have many uncited statements
 * Nearly all the sources are online. What steps have been taken to research literature (books, articles etc) that might deal objectively with aspects of the College?
 * In addition, the article appears to be overdependent on sources belonging to Kings College itself.
 * Reference formatting requires standardising, and there is at least one dead link
 * The prose does not look well organised, with rather too many single-sentence paragraphs.

I think you need to study one of the "College" articles that has made it to GA, and see if you can work up this one to that standard. I reommend Jesus College, Oxford. Brianboulton (talk) 00:22, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your suggestions Brianboulton. I will take them one by one and work on it. Many thanks.-- Merlaysamuel : Speechify  10:11, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
