Pavel Nedvěd
This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this article for peer review because I have expanded and referenced all over the place and would like to clean up any outstanding issues before I nominate it as a good article. In particular, I would like:
 * check if any BLP issue still needs a citation
 * comments on the stats section

While the article is much improved, at this stage a good article nomination would be premature. This is mainly because of gaps in its coverage. While the GA criteria do not require everything to be addressed, the major things should all have good coverage. As an example, I found Lee Hughes in the queue of articles awaiting GA review, it does a good job of demonstrating the sort of coverage to aim for. More specifically: Hope this helps.

 * There is a big imbalance between the first half and second half of his career. The ten years of his senior career before Juventus are summed up in just two short paragraphs. Nedved was the fulcrum of the most successful Lazio side of all time, and this deserves more than a couple of brief sentences.
 * added 12 references, many through HighBeam, which has expanded coverage of his Lazio stint.
 * Likewise, in the international career section, more coverage is given to unremarkable group stage exits than the Euro 96 run that first brought Nedved to international attention (and led to his transfer to Italy).
 * added four references and match-by-match for Euro 96, including suspension and first international goal.
 * The circumstances of Juventus winning titles and then having them rescinded ought to be explained clearly. What prompted Nedved to play in Serie B instead of seeking a transfer?
 * added more information about the scandal and the player's reasons for staying.
 * What makes the following pages a reliable source?
 * http://www.soccer-fans-info.com/pavel-nedved.html
 * http://www.footballteamplayers.com/pavel-nedved-profile.html
 * http://www.footballsweepstake.com/players/player.asp?pageid=543&player=572 and http://pavelnedved.110mb.com/biography.html (these 2 are also dead links).
 * all replaced except last one - no suitable alternative could be found.
 * What were Nedved's main attributes as a player? Many well-developed football biographies have a Playing style section to cover this.
 * created new section, moved nickname citations there and have expanded.
 * Widely regarded as one of the finest midfielders of the modern era - by whom?
 * removed and reworded.
 * Thanks a lot Oldelpaso. I will delete the claim with the unreliable source if I cannot find a good reference for it soon. C 679 12:58, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

Sorry I've been busy. Notes as I go.....Casliber (talk · contribs) 07:10, 14 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Try to tidy up prose into paras - don't leave single sentences about the place.
 * looks like you have addressed this yourself – thank you.
 *  In 1990, Nedvěd arrived in Prague, his nation's capital. - I'd drop "his nation's capital."...not that obscure....
 * removed and reworded.
 * Thanks a lot Casliber. C 679 17:27, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
