[edit] July 2007

[edit] July 8, 2007

  • Criminal law - Article needs serious improvements. Muddy writing throughout.
  • Non-synchronous transmissions - Article needs serious improvements. It repeats information, it has no illustrations to explain the text, and it is written in an unencyclopedic manner. It also promotes the American Trucker Association, & Professional Truck Driver's Association school at the Houston Community College N.E. campus in northeast Houston, TX (USA)! Why? — CZmarlin 02:26, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Ranger's Apprentice (series) - A large amount of spelling and gramatical errors. Way to many for me to fix on my own. The content at parts can also sound very unprofessional
  • Bob Clampett - very subjective text in the lower sections - e.g. he wrote some of the 'most outrageuous and funniest cartoons'.
  • Bugs Bunny - under Personality, there is a lot of theorizing about the nature of Bugs, winner/losers, and the flow is confusing. i've fixed it up a little but it needs another set of eyes.
  • Focus III - this reads like a review, and is incredibly positively biased.
  • Bike or Die way too much gaming minutia, most of it should be moved to a gaming wiki. Eldar 00:56, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Samuel Slater - Slater built his textile mill in Providence, Rhode Island and not Pawtucket, Rhode Island.
  • Edith Pringle: Aussie pol activist. Needs sourcing. --Lendorien 16:48, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] July 7, 2007

  • Mii (Jungle de Ikou!) - This article is about a cartoon featuring a ten year old girl with large breasts. The writers of this article do not deserve good faith; the depraved tone is hideously unencyclopedic. A gx7 02:49, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Chuck E. Cheese's - a fairly notable chain, that happens to be watchlisted by nearly no one, and also frequented by new and anonymous users. Problem is, Chuck E. Cheese's is a kid's restaurant, and the quality of the article looks like it's greatest fans are the contributors. Please, this is a notable subject, and the article stinks. The Evil Spartan 19:49, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] July 6, 2007

  • The 50 Greatest Cartoons - The list and the article have many things that are in conflict including why there is a 2007 list and the book from 1994. Also the parantheticals next to the name of the cartoons are different than what should be used i.e. production company. The list also seems to be incorrect with different cartoons appearing at the number one spot throughout the editing process. Also the article lacksa good number of wikilinks although there are articles that correspond to the cartoons on the list. Metsman 23:44, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] July 5, 2007

  • Fay B. Kaigler Children's Book Festival - Seems to me someone just typed it straight from a book or typed it. Considered deletion tag, but I think it's salvageable. Wikified a bit of it and added categories, but it's massive. Hourick 22:15, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
  • People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals - Is not NPOV or even a reasonable attempt. The main page should at least get a neutrality dispute header on it (as opposed to just seeing one on the talk page), as the thing seems sided towards PETA-bashing. I've made three observations on the talk page, but the whole thing could be read over by someone better at this than I and reworked.
  • List of Supermodels - Very incomplete list with little context. Illuminattile 19:22, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] July 4, 2007

[edit] July 3, 2007

  • List of Ben & Jerry's flavors - Really, the article is just many enormous lists. I'm not really sure if it should be put into tables, or just removed altogether due to relevance. — HelloAnnyong [ t · c ] 03:40, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Akatsuki (Naruto) - A former GA article that was demoted do to too much in-universe material and a large amount of trivia. User:Artist Formerly Known As Whocares 19:40 (Eastern Standard Time), 3 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Luxtorpeda - Too informal style for an encyclopedia ("However, it was not a regular train as we imagine it ..."). - Mike Rosoft 18:37, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] July 2, 2007

[edit] July 1, 2007

[edit] June 2007

[edit] June 30, 2007

  • Thousand_island_dressing - The last paragraph under "origins" either needs a rewrite or should be eliminated. It speaks of different types of salad dressings "battling for a place in history," for example. Jkisch 19:27, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Dead Rising - The characters section looks like it was just ripped out of a walk through or game guide.
  • Matthew the Evangelist - Rife with redundancies and grammatical errors. Is not split into categories, just one big block of text. 65.123.80.28 07:59, 30 June 2007 (UTC)Dafhgadsrhadjtb
  • flyforbeans - Needs a total cleanup, and the format to be standardised with other airlines. The information is also a bit vauge. The Gannet 01:08, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 29, 2007

  • Object composition - A new section about Aggregation in COM was included, which may be confusing or unclear for some readers. Rjgodoy 05:37, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles - Non-neutrality, promotional flavour. Excessive editing of this article without explanation has made it hard to trace its roots. An update made June 29 attempted to correct this problem but supporters of the Brave Words marketing team have removed the content (again) Article seems to promote Magazine but when any information is inserted which discusses aspects not in the Magazine's promotional advantage these sections get conveniently revoved leaving the article with a Biased or POV feeling. Case in point: Latest edition of magazine is on display in the picture section and data seems to be updated each month. 64.229.204.12 11:57, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 27, 2007

  • Infusion - This reads like someone's scrappy cookbook entry rather than an article in an encyclopedia. I have already stripped it of the worst bits. Maikel 10:47, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Valley_High_School_(Des_Moines,_Iowa) - Lots of <br> tags, inconsistent formatting. Bassgoonist 19:24, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Video CD - Large sections contain grammar errors as if parts were machine-translated into English. 67.66.92.222 19:03, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Lawrence Dimick - This article is clumsily written, with halting grammer. The headings make it unclear whether the section "fictional biography" is missing entirely (other than the heading itself) or made up of subsections that merely relate the plot of Reservoir Dogs. The entire article is written with overly basic sentences; this may seem like an odd complaint, but read the article and you'll see what I mean. Minaker 06:38, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Louis Briffa - Unwikified, possibly copied from somewhere. - Mike Rosoft 10:07, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
  • The_Cure_for_Insomnia - Some confusing and not-quite-sensical text needs rewriting/clarification.

[edit] June 26, 2007

  • DreamHost - Largely written and protected by a single user with a strong POV. anthony 11:54, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Mario Lanza - Please check the Mario Lanza page for external links to fan sites, etc. not allowed on Wikipedia?

[edit] June 25, 2007

  • Amapola Cabase - reads like a promotional, and contains many runon paragraphs with not much sense of order. I also wonder if the subject warrants this much coverage. Squalk25 16:27, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 24, 2007

[edit] June 23, 2007

  • List of Courage the Cowardly Dog episodes - This non notable show has an article for every durned episode in the series. All are tiny stubs and none are sourced. They all need to be merged back into the list. I think the list of episodes page is good enough. Suggestions on how to do this would be welcome. --Lendorien 17:46, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
Help:Merging and moving pages seems to be the place to start. I've never done a merger before myself. I did a look at one of the episode pages, and it seems well-maintained, so you might want to start with a merger proposal as outlined in the "merging & moving pages" section to avoid an edit war. Good luck.  :) --Moonriddengirl 17:41, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 23, 2007

  • iGoogle - reads like a promotional. - Mike Rosoft 08:41, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Thompson (band) - Doesn't look to be written by native English speaker. Odd grammatical mistakes littered throughout. Also may contain OR and copyright violations. Milton 22:19, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Children's street culture - From the first sentence to the end section is poorly written, with many off topic and lists too long.GreaterWikiholic 04:05, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 22, 2007

[edit] June 21, 2007

  • Hardware - Only its meaning is displayed and no other infos are available like it's history and types etc.. The information is limited, not very brief. A turn off for Wikipedia. Little teen02 18:38, 21 June 2007 (GMT+8)

[edit] June 20, 2007

  • Academic_degree#Norway - Translated from Norwegian - badly. Not sure if its even needed in the article. Eltomzo 14:30, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
  • List_of_Finding_Nemo_characters - Needs serious rewrite. Numerous grammar problems and unencyclopedic style. JudgeSpear 14:34, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Event Information Table - Really needs to broken up into sections for easier reading, and the second half of it is more like a HOWTO (so much code). And, of course, needs to get into the relevant categories. --S. Morrow 21:42, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 17, 2007

  • Chiastic_structure - Needs one or more good examples, attention from an expert. --Biggus Dictus 19:03, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
  • HSV SS Group A - Needs more wikifying and cleanup from someone who knows his/her cars. Mvuijlst 17:47, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Sinitta - terrible, terrible article......needs a lot of help--Paul75 00:04, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Des'ree - Reads like a press release--Paul75 00:05, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 16, 2007

  • Civil War (comic book) - The Synopsis section needs cleaning up. It's really long and wordy and disorganized and is just a retelling of it all, and is not encyclopedic. It also needs extensive copyediting. --zandperl 16:47, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Sepsis - initial definition completely unclear, rest of article no help unless already a medical professional.
Intro trimmed to cut to the chase. Gordonofcartoon 13:08, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
  • List of Greek companies - loaded with lots of non-notables that need pruning out. Astrovega 00:49, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Evan Roberts (radio personality) - there are tons of unsourced statements, unworthy content, as well as contentions that are obviously wrong/POV. For someone with a prominent radio shift in the biggest American market, you'd expect a better article. Zookman12 02:17, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Allan Snyder - reads like an award citation and needs citations. Bakashi10 06:57, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Kyiv-classic - Contains no references, and appears to have been written by someone involved with the orchestra, but also appears legitimate based upon Google search. -FeralDruid 11:10, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 15, 2007

  • Word problem (mathematics education) - a minefield of POV, which appears to be tended by en editor with an axe to grind; note the talk page arguments. -dmmaus 09:45, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Pearl Islands -- Most of the article looks like it's been copied from somewhere, and has no paragraphing or Wikipedia formatting whatsoever. That section needs to be cleaned up. Kumar 07:47, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Hot Fuzz - The section on 'Cultural References' is written like an essay, and the title is misleading. --Benadd 06:59, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Yoshi's Story is poorly written with an absoulutely terrible section. GreaterWikiholic 04:30, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Monoboard - Article reads like something made up in school. Cybermuz 16:09, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 14, 2007

[edit] June 13, 2007

  • Civil law - Disambig page that needs to be reformatted. · Tygartl1·talk· 20:06, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Qiyamah - Treats the subject as fact, instead of as what it is: a religious belief. Cows fly kites (Aecis) Rule/Contributions 13:20, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Retrotransposon marker - Jargon-heavy. Overall, very choppy writing.--Iknowyourider 15:53, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
  • DreamStripper - This article sounds like an advertisement and was most probably written by the software's creator. 71.126.181.3 16:22, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Hand over fist - A few issues: first person comments, irrelevant material, sources cited incorrectly. I'm not really sure whether this information is reliable, either. On top of that, I have a hunch that all or parts of it were copied. --Parables 16:43, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 12, 2007

  • Gene gun - At the very least, the second paragraph of the "Design" section needs a cleanup, possibly a rewrite. --Iknowyourider 20:52, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
  • TV3 (Catalonia) This entry has been turned into a perfect clone of the TV3 corporate web site. It seems that Wikipedia has chosen to neuter well-documented public criticism concerning the public debates on TV3 (some of it from highly-placed individuals in Catalonia's Parliamentary Control Commission). Furthermore, the entry has been protected from any further editing except by "Andromeda" (the TV corporation's self-appointed publicist).
  • Violence Against Women Act - I agree with recent posts in talk section that the article need a major revision with an eye toward NPOV. It seems odd to me that the article seems to be almost entirely a criticism of this law. REL1870 21:24, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Photovoltaic_module - Misplaced and unattributed quotations, and no references cited. This article needs some TLC --7secondsed 22:05, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 11, 2007

[edit] June 9, 2007

  • Ocean's Thirteen - This article violates NPOV and needs a serious grammar clean up.
  • Makam Habib Noh - Article reads like a hagiography. AecisBrievenbus 14:33, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Jean Houston "Contributions in perspective" section is written like an essay. 24.25.219.142 08:32, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Barrow-in-Furness Badly written and unreferenced with way too much unnecessary information. Poor compared to similar sized UK settlements. Kijog 22:55, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Tholus, Mensa (geology), Rupes, Macula (planetary geology), Linea - short articles about planetary features, originally proposed for deletion after being moved to Wiktionary; I believe that they could be expanded or merged somewhere. - Mike Rosoft 11:59, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
  • The size of Wales - needs to be completely rewritten & retitled to reflect a less UK-centric perspective. --Stlemur 16:16, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Cy Young – formatting problems, grammatical/syntactical errors; also, problems with text: poor transitions and chronologically incorrect. --Ksy92003 (talk) 01:58, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 8, 2007

[edit] June 6, 2007

  • Star-crossed - Jargon, lists, more about R&J than about the acutal word. GreaterWikiholic 04:45, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Parlour music - Article is completely unsourced. May need text edits. --Lendorien 17:09, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Jarboe - List of albums needs cleanup. Biographical info was cut as copy vio, but a user readded it claiming to be the artist in question's assistant. It IS copy vio fromt he artist's website. Someone with a bit more knowledge of policy needs to take care of this. --Lendorien 16:59, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Grognard - Written more like an entymological dictionary entry, needs sections and poorly written.GreaterWikiholic 22:04, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
  • The Great Doheny - Written in an uncyclopedic style.Crazyvideomaniac 22:10, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Sipa and Sipa (disambiguation). Info all over the place there. —mattrobs 10:55, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 5, 2007

  • Sandy Cheeks - Primarily is written in an in-universe perspective and contains no citations at all. Pants(T) 21:18, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Antitrust - "History of antitrust in the United States" section reads as biased, selective, and overly authorial. Needs editing, citations, and general clean-up. This is a major article.--72.43.165.29 20:09, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • DuckTales - Contains no citations whatsoever.--Astrovega 14:27, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • SWAT Kats - No citations.--Astrovega 14:29, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Iraq - There are several grammar issues in the first paragraph and beyond. I think this should be considered a major article, and should present itself formally.--Daltonator 02:06, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 3, 2007

  • Yeoman - No intro, dictionary like sections, written poorly, could be shortened. Seems more like what you'll find in an entymology dictionary than an encyloclopedia. GreaterWikiholic 00:05, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Cambridge Latin Course - Written very poorly. Errors, focuses too much on plot.GreaterWikiholic 18:49, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Korfball European Bowl - It's written in poor English. Katharineamy 17:12, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • GCSE Astronomy - There are grammatical mistakes and the language does not suit an encyclopedia article. Please fix.Wiki.user 11:43, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • AT&T - Wrong founding date for company. Article does not comply with what the official corporate web site lists

[edit] June 2, 2007

  • Jean-Hippolyte Flandrin - It was taken pretty much word for word from the Eleventh edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica, which was published in 1911 (it has since entered the public domain). I understand this edition Encyclopædia is frequently used as a resource, but the style of writing is outdated and is not consistent with the rest of Wikipedia. Even though it appears there have been some changes in the past to make it sound more up-to-date, the content of the article still sounds rather archaic. The article might also need the attention of someone who knows a bit about the artist. --Neinfraulein 03:28, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Lauren London - The article already has an Unreferenced tag, but could also benefit from a general cleaning up of the Early Life and Career section. Arrow 00:28, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 1, 2007

  • I fixed most of the grammar and added a spoiler warning, but the article is still very lacking, especially in sources. JoeyETS 00:57, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] May 2007

[edit] May 31, 2007

Article reads well enough to me. Issue seems to be lack of references, not messiness. Matt 19:35, 29 June 2007 (UTC).
  • Silver Nanoparticles - Incomplete and confusing article. Needs to be expanded and clarified --Ninjatacoshell 18:23, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Pre-qualification. Some of the information is incorrect, specifically regarding the social security number not being needed. That is absolutely incorrect.

[edit] May 30, 2007

  • European Irish - Legitimate topic, but seems to have been created as an advertisement for the europeanirish.com website. - Mike Rosoft 13:45, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Jean Baudrillard - format is terrible. AnonIP may have tried to fix it, but it was impossible to discern whether the removal of content was appropriate or not. Derumi 21:50, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Acute lymphoblastic leukemia - Phrasing is awkward, and not at an encyclopedia level. Syntax is stilted. --Milton 01:13, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Hells Angels is really poorly written, controversy aside. There are all sorts of grammatical errors and odd syntaxes. I'd be bold, but I don't know enough abuot the subject to figure out what some of the article is trying to say --xAlpha 23:00, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Maybe a "subject matter expert"? What subject would that be? It may just need to be re-written - both the article and talk are a bit out of control.Lightwiki 01:53, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Timebase correction repeats a lot of the same information and is poorly organized.
  • Multimedia Fusion has mostly bad English grammar, there are misspelled words, and it just doesn't look gay.
  • Cleaned up formatting and grammer a bit. Program functionality needs verified. --Mortal 23:57, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
  • iNiS is poorly written, short and has broken links. Hard to read. Needs to look encyclopedic. GreaterWikiholic 02:17, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Very fan focused - unencyclopedic character. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 13:34, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Royal visits to Australia contains incorrect links and confusing third person pronouns such as a he which can refer to a few people. It's also a long article requiring organization.
  • I added sections and an area for references, however, I haven't read through or improved the content at all. -Sparky 11:03, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Sacramento High School contains unencyclopedic lists that may require cleanup.Rjgodoy 07:31, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Simon Necronomicon Tone changes between it being an ancient book translated in the 1970s, a book written on it's own merits in the 1970s, and a hoax version of the Lovecraft Necronomicon written in the 1970s. I thought I could possibly fix it, but it's just too much. Might even want to just delete the nonsense and add it as a footnote to the Necronomicon page. 69.64.10.249 14:01, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Filippino Lippi: (Renaissance painter) - I'm still relatively new at all this, but it seems to me that this article is completely lacking in references. I would tag it, but am still uncomfortable with taking such liberties. There also seems to me some NPOV violations, given a lack of critical reference in such sentences as this, "His first works greatly resemble those of Botticelli's, but with less sensitivity and subtlety" and "Eventually Lippi's style evolved into a more personal and effective one...." I hope a more experienced editor might have time to take a look and decide if those issues need tagging. --Moonriddengirl 14:12, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Sahaj Marg - Incorrect citations, sources cited often don't say what it is claimed they say, incorrectly wikified, the word "cult" is used over and over again, POV challenges, one editors interpretations keep sneaking into the article. Sethie 19:42, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Pinta - Poorly written, no organisation, citation, internal links, or formatting.Celtic Emperor 15:44, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Smooth jazz - Numerous Wikipedia policy concerns, including WP:RS, WP:V and in turn WP:N as well as WP:NPOV, WP:NOR, WP:NOT#DIR and WP:EL. The article though is about a major jazz genre with worldwide radio coverage, and so is notable and in my view, not eligible for AfD, but notability isn't established in the article due to no citations or references. Also alerted to cleanup taskforce, where detailed information on the articles problems are here: Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce/Smooth jazz. --tgheretford (talk) 16:10, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Tonya Kay - article reads like a resume or a press release, has an overly detailed list of articles and appearances. Blade 05:54, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Alternative hip hop - Supplies little fact and much opinion and while it cites its sources for this information, it doesn't read like an encyclopedia entry at all. Does not go into great detail regarding examples, history, etc.
  • Blue Lagoon Island - Unreferenced; unencyclopedic pronouncements. - Mike Rosoft 19:19, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Lan Mandragoran - Article on a character from The Wheel of Time - the page was really disorganized so I grouped topics, but within each topic the text needs to be changed to flow better. --zandperl 20:37, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

  • I fixed the headings and moved around several images. I fixed quite a bit of formatting as well. Nswinton\talk 16:31, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
  • My heading fixes have been reverted by another editor, and are far worse, in my opinion. Each character is being considered it's own subsection currently, making the TOC inappropriately long. Main editor lacks understanding of Summary style. Article is currently only 51k, and has the longest TOC that I've ever seen on wikipedia. Nswinton\talk 17:24, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

  • The Buckaroos - notable band, but the content seems to be too much promotional. - Mike Rosoft 08:22, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Evaluation - grammar and formatting both need cleaning up a bit. Some clunky and sweeping statements need tidying up too. Rob 15:04, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Contributions by John leo (talk · contribs) - most pages created by the user need cleanup, possibly merging and/or renaming. - Mike Rosoft 11:29, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo and Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo (character) - These articles are in desparate need of cleanup and I refuse to be the one to do it (I don't have the time nor the patience to handle such jobs). I suggest more than one person tackles these articles (I'm sure the other Bobobo articles need cleanup too) to avoid going insane. // DecaimientoPoético 00:33, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Culture#Belief_systems - There's no theme here, making the section disorganized. It covers differences between Eastern and Western culture; Abrahamic religion, Eastern religion and philosophy, folk religion, the American Dream, and marriage.

[edit] May 2, 2007

  • Aeroponics - Intro very over dramatic, odd wording
  • Jarrod Saltalamacchia - too casual
  • Sean Avery - Starts to get choppy and seems be more of a day-to-day type article after that adding many things with no relevance at all and is also missing citations for a majority of the article. May be written like a fan-site, in some areas, as well, but I am not sure abudabee.

  • Walter_Ostanek - New to online, and getting very sentimental about Walter Ostanek, a Grammy award winning accordianist from St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada, I could only access a wikipedia article by googling. In here, it think it was my hitting add stub, that made my wordy addition spread out about three feet wide. I've been trying to edit, and contact, now, for over half an hour. Could you please reorganize my submission, because it shows a side of Walter that hasn't come through, until now. John Alexander Watt 03:41, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Kurdish calendar - Messy, grammar errors, and probably inaccurate information.
  • Bonnie Langford - various reasons, which I cited on her talk page. In summary: fansite, no real content other than a resumé of her work, subject headings which do not reflect the contents, speculation, advertising and promotion. Ros0709 09:33, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Roman Ungern von Sternberg the article doesn't site a single reference or source. Definetly needs a clean up. Olockers 19:35, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Well, vandelism isn't all. The introduction for this article is longer than the main body text. It rambles and lacks direction and any sourcing. It probably needs to be moved to somewhere else int he article. A former Featured Article candidate, it seems to have significantly degraded.--Lendorien 15:04, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Oh... my... god... This article desperately needs cleaning up. I have done a few basic things, but I could do with some help.

  • Channel 4 programming is a new article that combines material lifted from Channel 4 (which was becoming too big) and material merged from the former List of Channel 4 television programmes. It is divided into genres of programming some of which are highly specific with others being vague and mixed-up. It also contains content from many different editors, describing specific programmes individually, which tends to make the prose seem very disjointed. It generally needs a tidier structure, but given the amount of content, is a pretty big endeavour. It is also separately tagged as requiring references. -- Fursday 00:02, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Emil Krebs - Wall of text that appears to have been translated. Alksub 21:57, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Yes, it appears to have been computer-translated from the German WP article.[1 Schmitty120 14:32, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Supernatural - This is an important article, but unfortunately it contains many forward claims that require attribution to reliable sources, chief among them a strong support of methodological naturalism in science. It lacks references for many of its other claims, which I have marked with "citation needed" tags. It uses numerous weasel words. "Competing Explanations and Criteria of Preference" as well as the end of "Alleged instances of supernaturalization" have a naturalistic POV and should be cut down unless reliable sources can be found to support their statements. See what I wrote under "Unsourced." Good day.Schmitty120 19:35, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Fender_Stratocaster - Article begins well but loses organization and the running order jumps around. D. Miller

[edit] March 23, 2007

  • List of Colombians - It's overloaded with colombian personalities which aren't "important enough" to feature on this list. To much information to describe each person (needs sumary of each description). Information is not well organized and seems traduced badly (directly from spanish), and it has been vandalized before -- Minako-Chan* 21:22, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Dolphins-Jets rivalry - Lots of information (perhaps too much), but unencyclopedic tone throughout much of the article; too much for me to rewrite on my own. Could use some copyediting too, perhaps. -- Highway99 06:30, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
  • List of Dutch hip hop musicians - Needs wikification, npov'ing, etc. AecisBrievenbus 17:15, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

  • I cleaned up the sentence structure, spelling and grammar issues for the most part. -- Nswinton 17:03, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Dronfield - This article has been subject to many small, unstructured additions producing an incoherent and somewhat unintelligible read. The information in the main body is delivered in a short and almost truncated manner for the most part, explicating very little as the topics progress. Secondly, half of the text under “History” relates very loosely to history; distinct sections relating explicitly to their own content may solve this. -- Naqahdah 14:08, 19 March 2007 (UTC)Naqahdah

[edit] March 18, 2007

  • Olivia_(singer) - Proofreading for typos and general cleanup required, e.g. same facts are stated multiple times in several locations (bio, music career)
  • Erotic Lactation - Article needs general proofreading. Spelling errors, non-words, and some colloquial speech detracting from encyclopedic tone.
  • This still needs more editing. I attempted to make spelling/grammar changes, but short on time and unable to finish it now. I cannot in good conscience recommend leaving the bit about lesbians breastfeeding each other being commonplace. The citation for that bit was dated to 1934: too old for anything current and scholarly. I left it there, though. Snackar 09:46, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Noelle Pikus Pace - This article is poorly written and from a first person perspective. The person is real and seems notable but the text of the article needs much attention. Sadly more than I hace this morning. JBEvans 10:55, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Social studies - This article needs clean-up, streamlining or a complete rewrite and/or a possible merge? I tried some by correcting spelling but I do not have enough time, interest nor experience to format the layout and content. Also not sure about the validity/nobility of the subject, as it seems to be some sort of set of study hints for students; therefore un-encyclopedic? I also tried to make the layout look a bit better, it's better looking but still is a poor article in my opinion. Hopefully someone will look at this to help clean it up, expand it, merge it, or delete it. I did add a stub tag. Dunno :/ -Jeeny 19:01, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I tried to break up the material in the introduction into subsections as well as removing some redundancy and confusing sentence structure. I also rephrased the Digital Technology section to be easier to understand and to sound less like a commercial. I don't know enough about the teaching methods to know what to do with them, but I recommend perhaps just creating a new page or linking to an existing one that covers the method of teaching. The current lists are not very informative and seem more like a brochure than an encyclopedia entry. SPH. 17, March 2007.
  • General Hospital - This article is in need of some basic cleanup and reformatting. If left untended, it will essentially turn into a recap/fansite page. I don't have a problem with posting storyline-type information, but it needs to be brought up to WP Quality standards. Also, fans keep adding new couple and supercouple pages for practically every set of characters, most of which is in blatant violation of WP:NOR. I would think most of the "couple" pages are good candidates for deletion. A few, like Luke and Laura Spencer are definitely Notable for their contribution to the modern Soap Opera, but most are frivolous and unnecessary.--66.91.225.99 02:34, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Spread of Islam - This article has a few passages with clearly biased points of view and should be written much more neutrally. Examples of quotes include "The infamous Hakim (Al-Hakim bi-amr-Allah, the sixth Egyptian Caliph, 996-1021, who became the god of the Druze) determined to destroy the Holy Sepulchre (In 1010.)" Infamus? God of the Druze? What?
  • "Yet, in spite of all, Christianity failed, and Islam succeeded in gaining the Iranian race." I think there is a much better way of saying that. --213.174.190.59 17:00, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Rancho San Joaquin Middle School - Seems a little one-sided, don't you think. It is only talking about one humanities teacher, Kay Gee, there are other humanities teachers and other teachers there who deserve to have their name on their as well, not just her. Please do something about it, I didn't want to touch it, but I might fix it a bit... just a bit.
  • Shorts - The section 'Motivation' is poorly worded. -- Bitbut 01:46, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I tried to clean it up a bit and reword it. More than just the Motivation section needs work. --Joanna 03:09, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

For a start, it seems to be written, without realising it, from an entirely monocultural (North American) point of view, but this is a subject on which attitudes and practice vary a lot even within the English-speaking world, never mind everywhere else. There are also a lot of terminological and definition problems. Unfortunately I know a lot about this subject, so I suppose I shall have to get down to work on it. Woblosch 22:35, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] March 8-11, 2007

  • Intermolecular force - Citations need to be added.
  • Gaffney High School - A user has put a large amount of unformatted text in the article, and asked me not to revert it. Could somebody make heads or tails of it? - Mike Rosoft 18:26, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
  • The broken formatting has been fixed, but I still think there's too much (not particularly encyclopedic) content. - Mike Rosoft 14:08, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Varalaru - History of Godfather - Many grammatical and clarity errors. Much of the content essential to a good article on a film is there, but it is also confusing to read. Most of the spelling errors have been addressed, but the original author(s) may not be familiar enough with English (no criticism intended). A good copy editor is essential, and familiarity with the film may be beneficial. The article will benefit from much paring of excessive detail, and significant citing. Also, many, many incidences of what appears to be original research, or at least, personal interpretation. :—  Jim Dunning  talk  :  03:30, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] March 7, 2007

  • Country pop - No sources, informal and awkward style (incl. unnecessarily long, if not run-on, sentences), poor grammar.
  • National Monument (Ireland) - Just plain confusing
    • Cleanup and confusion tags added. TenPoundHammer 22:51, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Hollow moon - This article is a complete mess, written by a single unexperienced editor with obvious bias. Personally I think the subject could be notable enough to merit it's own article, there are books out there about the "theory", but the format should be in line with articles like Hollow earth, the faked moonlanding hoax and David Icke's crackpot theories. Zainker 10:34, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I tried to clean this up a bit. I pulled some copy vio text, reworked the intro, and added fact tags. It's somewhat suitable now though needs expansion and some sources. --Lendorien 18:50, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
  • The Woods Hole, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Steamship Authority - This article is organized poorly.
  • Privatization - Most of this article suffers from a total lack of sources. Furthermore, it has relatively little information on its actual subject; actual facts about privatization are overwhelmed by information about arguments pro and con. Even discussions of actual privatizations tend to overemphasize information about the arguments surrounding it relative to other facts, which is a serious information bias. Elliotreed 19:35, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] March 6, 2007

  • Calvary - "References in popular culture" section makes up over half the article and contains a lot of non-encyclopedic content.
  • British African-Caribbean community - Is supposed to be about the African and Caribbean communities in Britain but instead is completely about the Caribbean, please clean it up. I already tried but somebody changed it back.
  • American Pie - Has words run together, misspellings of McLean's name, and far too many other errors and REALLY needs a good cleanup by someone with good grammar.
  • Praieira revolt - This article needs cleanup. Needs more context and details. It's badly in need of sourcing and a general reorginaziation of the info. It reads like a philisophical essay rather than an article and is light on any real meat. --Lendorien 00:57, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] March 5, 2007

  • Cleaned up grammer a little, but I didn't want to touch it much because I know nothing on the subject. --postofficebox
  • Precompiled header - Needs a grammar check, I would clean it up now, but it's a bit early in the morning for me. --Roguelazer 09:03, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I cleaned up the grammar, but the page still needs a C++ expert's attention. -- ObtuseAngle 15:52, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Grammar corrections concerning some topics I know, but the page still needs C++ experts' revision. -- Rjgodoy 13:27, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] March 4, 2007

  • Ranger's Apprentice - Requires checking of detail, an info bar, a table of contents, locations, cleanup of messy character section, and better summary of the books.
  • Biotechnology - Needs a cleanup of the formatting and on the info. It is currently too messy and hard to retrieve information from...
  • Europa-Park - Added the Infobox, but will not format properly. Can somebody take a look and help out? Also the article is in need of some general reformatting to make it easier to read. Poeloq 21:56, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Paleo-Paganism - One-sided information on a concept that seems redundant and invented by a single author and lacking academic consensus. The originator of the article resists any editing or labelling, as shown in the Talk page. See also Meso-Paganism. -- jofframes 22:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

was meant to be on this project page, apparently wasn't added; so, I've updated the tag, and yes, it is in dire need of cleaning-up, what with all this POV statements, untruths, and whatnot being edited into the article. --Qwerty (talk) 14:32, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] March 2, 2007

  • Article needs sources. Most of the sources for information in this article are probably in german. Seems ok otherwise. --Lendorien 15:07, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
  • The introduction to this article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. (Rjgodoy 14:34, 3 March 2007 (UTC))
  • Hard for a layman to understand. Sourcing is wonky. Lacks an intro that breaks it down for the layman. --Lendorien 14:42, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Agreed. Article lacks any sort of sourcing, though it looks like the list has been culled quite a bit. --Lendorien 17:29, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] February 26 - 28, 2007

  • The Bad Girls Club - Copyediting needed to fix grammatical and syntax errors. Overall organization needed. 24.22.210.14 19:10, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Fixed some grammatical errors. --Akiramenai 06:55, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Jauhar - This article seems to have been patched together from other Wikipedia material and original work from a non-native English speaker. Even if the grammatical errors were fixed, this article could still probably stand to be completely rewritten, referenced, and generally wikified. - Lukeonia1 09:10, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Fictional technology - This has a bit of editorializing about 19th c. England and 20th c. USA being "dominated by a military-industrial complex." The speculations about why specific technologies may not be appropriate technology are interesting but could stand to be reworded. --Kris Schnee 11:45, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Afzalsho Shodiev - Says that he is a "popular Tajik singer" - more information needed. - Mike Rosoft 12:34, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Mars Hill Church - Read a little too informally and a little too much like an ad. Already did some cleanup, but could possibly use more. - raekwon 14:05, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. - Redundancy; awkward chronology; copyediting needed.
  • I did a lot of copyediting and rewording for clarity, and removed some redundant text. However, this still needs a look from someone familiar with the topic. --DoorsAjar 00:42, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Nautical tourism - Worthy topic, but needs a rewrite/expansion; unreferenced, not written in an encyclopedic style. - Mike Rosoft 11:14, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Tony Hutchinson - Bad grammar and lots of broken links. Samx 20:08, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Lexical knowledge - Currently orphaned, cites no references, and in need of encyclopedic style. WillHarper 00:14, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
  • MonoDevelop - The article's text seems to be lifted directly off the MonoDevelop website. Someone who is familiar with the software should probably clean it up. (I left a message on the talk page weeks ago, but no one noticed. I'm not using MonoDevelop so I really don't know anything about it.)Ubuntu Dude 00:47, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Libertà condizionata - Same as above. Both articles were created by the same user, and are plagued with basic structural problems. Appears to be talking about the parole system in Italy - someone with knowledge of that would have an easier time cleaning this up. -Cue the Strings 17:23, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

February 2007 (UTC)

  • WPYA - Poor formatting
  • Sexy prime - very confusing, as there are several "as of" statements referring to different dates, yet all are written in the present tense. - Im.a.lumberjack 21:59, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Armenian Genocide - The references in this article are a mess. I could really use some help fixing them. AecisBrievenbus 23:00, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Tom Monaghan - This article has a severe lack of references, and have some NPOV issues as well. --Kristjan Wager 13:09, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Adult Theater - Needs lots of cleanup, including fixing references etc Rtcoles 21:09, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Rupert Lowe This article has a lot of information, but it is poorly structured. The tone is too conversational and there are numerous uncited POV assertions.+
  • The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock - i put in a cleanup-remainder tag about halfway through the article. The first half of the article is good, but the second half needs a grammar, spelling, and style check, along with wikification. - Im.a.lumberjack 23:44, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] February 16 - 20, 2007

  • RMI-IIOP It assumes too much background knowledge. It has no general discussion about what this protocol is, what various forms it takes, what it's used for, it's history, etc. I already know a little bit about them and use them but came here to learn something more and went away without the info I was looking for. Dougher 04:27, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Web crawler - This page appears to have been purposefully defamed. AarrowOM 15:49, 20 February 2007
  • Geophagy - The proposed merger with Geophagia would help, but the main problems with this article remain: screwy formatting and wikification, and an over-emphasis on cultural issues at the expense of medical content.
  • Muv-Luv - This article is written in a very confusing way. The character information appears to be the central feature rather than the main story itself. Aparently, the information came from a japanese source, so it needs a cleanup to meet up the standards of an article written in english. Thank you, Minako-Chan* 14:37, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Hoodlums (Rayman) - someone recently added a load of information which is not found in game, and did not give a source. The additions are rather poorly written and have an informal tone (some of it is grammatically incorrect, too) RobbieG 21:29, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Shaba I - Article appears to include a lot of good information, but I can't make head or tail of it. It has been tagged for a short while. J Milburn 22:37, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
  • I provided a proper intro. Lacks sourcing. Could use some expansion, maybe some tonal edits. --Lendorien 18:29, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Virgin River Gorge - Article has little informative information, such as creation of the gorge, importance in regional transportation, history regarding Interstate 15 construction through the area, and has some grammar problems
  • The Hideout - Poorly written, seems more appropriate for a fansite than Wikipedia -- pb30<c.t> 03:49, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Music of Namibia - Section mentioning Ras Sheehama needs cleanup. goldenband

  • Cleaned up grammar/punctuation/sentence structure, but the article needs thorough referencing.akronpow 20:10, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Lysine - Requires much reworking including sources/verification, conforming to wiki standards, etc.
  • Special:Linksearch/upload.wikimedia.org In articles: often incorrectly linked images. In other namespaces: generally no problem. - User:Docu
  • Casey Affleck - Needs alot of work, wikifying, spell check, grammar check source and information verification, etc. Im.a.lumberjack 23:18, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] February 6 - 10, 2007

  • Marques Houston - Poorly written in terms of the English, and just doesn't read like an encyclopedic article. First section looks like an overview, and just generally looks untidy. Also not inparticularly thorough and has some formatting issues. Also uses the term "sophomore" a lot which I think is outlawed by the Manual of Style (due to it not being used outside of the US and Canada). Esteffect 18:28, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Frank Stanford - Article has no headings and needs citations and references. -Cavykatie
  • Headings have been added. Citations and references still need to be added, though. ChocoTenshi 01:03, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

  • William Poole (American 19th cent. NYC bully or gangster) - Lead section is two graphics, the rest is a data dump of contemporary journalism.--Jerzy•t
  • Isadora Duncan - Article has a horrible format and is not in chronological order. Missy1234 23:53, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Still needs lots of work. Virtually unsourced, still has chronology and tone issues. --Lendorien 01:51, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Gaia Online - Entry is very biased, and has been edited for malicious purposes.
  • Religion and politics - First section does not belong: some of the other entries could be separated out as stubs or longer. Jackiespeel 14:59, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
  • New Zealand local body elections 2004 - has a list of the winner of one mayoral election, and one ward result, and the rest is a list of councils. - Kripto 22:57, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Husky Rescue - Reads like an ad or a press release. It's not clear if the subject passes WP:MUSIC. AecisBrievenbus 13:43, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Conflict: Vietnam - I see it as an ad/commercial. Just like it's GameFaqs. --Pvt. Green 20:35, 31 January 2007 (EST)
  • Garcia de Nodal expedition - Tagged for cleanup due to: run-on sentences; awkward wording; inconsistent capitalization; needs more references. --TRosenbaum 15:06, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Iberian Lynx - Tagged for cleanup and spell check. There are many spelling mistakes, grammatical errors and in some sections, poor style. There are no sources cited and I have found some subjective comments. This article deserves better. --Francisco Valverde 18:56, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Made effort to clean up language, remove POV statements and make more readable. It should be pretty good now. The sourcing issue remains, however. --Lendorien 17:32, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Readability test - no structure, needs to be wikified. Tygartl1 18:16, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

  • John M. Bennett. Problems with this page: Wordart needs a disambiguation page. Pictures should be properly sized and placed. Jameswiese's additions, though well-meaning, should be modified to fit the writing of the page and the general tone required by Wikipedia.

[edit] January 21 - 25, 2007

  • Los Angeles News Service - Article needs to be rewritten in a more consise style, with headings and proper sourcing. I've made some attempt to clean it up. There's some personal info in there about the founders. Not sure it's appropriate for the article, but the founder's article was merged with this one some time back. --Lendorien 14:41, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Mystic projection - Seems to be written from premise that everything described (assorted out of body experiences) are true; popular/folk history is treated as true; historical sources are taken out of context/misundersood (e.g. Jewish mystical texts).````ykahn
  • Romance novel - This article is a little confusing - it has no introduction and kind of just jumps into some bulleted points. I'd clean it up myself but I'm not really qualified to write a good introduction to an established article in this area CredoFromStart 20:21, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Bat Boy: The Musical - This article is ridiculously convoluted in its Synopsis section. It jumps in an incredibly confusing and distracting way, and in certain regions it plagiarizes directly from the blurb of the book. And frankly, being an ex-actor in this musical, I frankly don't think I'm objective enough to rewrite this. Also, might want to keep an eye on the Controversy and External Links -- far too many high schools have been advertising in there. Ryoji.kun 04:31, 25 January 2007
  • Psychological warfare- Poorly written, reads like a bad high school paper. Tagged this as suggested on the talk page.
  • Dumba - Looks like a vanity page, little encyclopedic content. Needs severe pruning. - Mike Rosoft 16:56, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Alex Rackley - reads like a poorly written newspaper article; needs grammar correction and general cleanup. --Matthew K 03:36, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Green Politics - needs a complete makeover
  • Allu Arjun - needs almost complete rewrite - reads like a vanity article at this time. VirtualSteve 10:29, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comet (passenger car) — Format is highly unlike encyclopedic content; article reads like a school essay. Tone is highly informal; language is imprecise; descriptors of varieties of names for railcars cited in article are incomplete and sometimes misapplied.
  • Cyber-bullying - Badly in need of overhaul in every sense. Needs more valid, verifiable information. Lacks citations, what citations it has relate to single source, which, while valid enough, risks POV. -- Zeraeph 13:46, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Muraqabah - Doesn't use sections, is a guide on meditating or something (possibly shouldn't be in Wikipedia?), I'm not also sure this is WP:N. Maybe someone should nominate it for deletion, but at the very least it needs substantial work. --SLi 19:08, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Water cannon - No references. --RedHillian 04:21, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Early IBM disk storage - The article's tone needs improvement. Article refers to the reader, and it recommends doing a calculation in the first paragraph rather than providing data. Voket 23:02, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Argan - Most of this reads like somebody's high school term paper. It contains some awkward colloquialisms, and although it has some sources, they aren't all properly cited. Freshyill 14:20, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Energizer Bunny - There exists a conflict on who originally created the Energizer Bunny. Wario2006 20:03, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Notting Hill - poorly structured and hard to read. Needs internal sectioning. -- Earle Martin [t/c] 16:36, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Article now is acceptable, but lacks sources. --Lendorien 18:21, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Article has been improved since January, but still needs to be properly referenced. Images and wording/information are acceptable now. Nswinton 16:34, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Zygosity - A mess. jkhjkSomeone has combined three reasonable articles into one strange amalgam, using copy & paste rather than merging histories. This needs someone to right the wrongs who also knows enough of the science to know what they're doing. --Grutness...wha? 01:03, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Cooperative and others (many here, notably Co-operative economics and Co-operative Federalism/Cooperative federalism mess) - Mixed usage in text within most of those articles (cooperative versus co-operative) and mixed usage between articles makes for confusing in-text links. This would require someone with admin powers to complete some of the needed moves, but otherwise it just needs someone with a lot of time to comb through and correct the spellings to how the article is titled. Gave me a migraine. Buona fortuna! --Rkitko 08:10, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Gretchen Wilson-The personal life section of the entry jumps around a lot and needs a rewrite for better flow.

  • Growth stock - A big old mess of an article on a fairly important investing topic. Needs to be reworked and wikified. "For Dummies" explanations need to be fleshed out with deeper information, while case studies need to be fattened up for us dolts without MBAs. Kajerm 07:13, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Comte de Lautreamont This article was totally rewritten in essay style with many mistakes in grammar, tone, etc. In addition, the objective tone was destroyed and added information was unsourced and repetitive.
  • Dresden This needs grammar help and some rewriting, particularly in the Statistics section Lcarscad 16:52, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Considerably cleaned up now, for grammar/syntax/typos/spelling, style, tone of voice, etc. but still is missing a lot of sources and I think also a bit repetitive. Could probably be boiled down a bit.Woblosch 00:06, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Babylonian captivity - serious problems with style.
  • Desperate Housewives has many grammar mistakes, unsourced statements and speculation on future episodes. Season overviews also list many unnecessary details and could be shortened. Sfufan2005 22:10, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Spread of printing - Newish article with long list of cities taken from the German "Meyers Lexicon" of 1892. List for "Germany" therefore has strong POV issues (includes Prague, "Breslau" etc. Budapest is called "Ofen" etc. Creator of article has declined to do anything about it. Needs spelling of names Anglicised, links created & some headings adjusted to NPOV Johnbod 16:12, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Started work on this, copied in election boxes I could find, will get onto the rest soon.
  • Seth Swirsky has been edited by the subject. This has led to some pov issues. The article has been cleaned up, but review by an outsider would be welcome. Aecis Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984. 00:10, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Radu Duda, Prince of Hohenzollern-Veringen. I have started cleanup but could do with some help and advice. The article does not respect Wikipedia guidelines on Biographies of Living People, neither does it read like an Encyclopaedia entry: it is more like an attempt to list all the possible and imaginable bad things ever written about the subject, who is a public figure. It expands on many minute details about Radu Hohenzollern that are useless and POV, it needs balancing. I started cleanup of the article before tagging it, as the more I advance in the cleanup, the more I saw that the article needs this process. I also see that Stefanp and some of his sockpuppets such as Carbunar,John Mathis, MihutM have been editing it, so a cleanup is certainly in order. Furthermore, the article has too many references, it litters the text, very many of them in Romanian with no translation, some of them quoting obscure little publications, (whether they are reputable or not is hard to assess), and uses as references unknown people as great experts on the subject. Stefanp and his sock puppets have also edited King Michael of Romania's page in a similar way.

  • Abd al Hamid Ben Badis - This article is completely messed up, compared to the French and Arabic version of the article. -Escondites 05:29, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Alan Walker (musicologist) - This is a well sourced article that could use some cosmetic formatting improvements. It is currently rated as a 'B' held back from 'GA' only by formatting. Please assist. Alan.ca 10:29, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Jews for Jesus - This article has undergone so many edit wars that it has become a disorienting patchwork. Ancillary sections such as "Litgation" take upwards of 1/4th of the article, and the citation section involves lengthy block quotes that are confusing at best. Djma12 03:06, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
  • AMC and Jeep transmissions - Needs heavy wikifying and a major cleanup. --ApolloBoy 00:57, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Safety climate - created by WP:AFC request; don't have time to fix it
  • SameGame - a bit too casual compared to Wikipedia standards

  • Paul Bettany - long, too few sections, and a long list of awards could be cleaned up/shortened Betaeleven 14:25, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
  • The Da Vinci Code (film) - the Differences between film and novel section has been tagged for cleanup since October 2006, but it doesn't appear to have been entered on this page. The list is extremely long and needs some serious work. Betaeleven 14:31, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
  • My Parents are Aliens - Specifically the episode synopses. Not all the series are formatted the same way, it's been tagged for non-standard English, and some of the grammar and spelling is quite poor as well. More alarmingly, I found some plagiarism in the characters section, (and replaced it), and I'm concerned that the synopses might contain some as well. RobbieG 16:49, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] November 2006

[edit] November 16 - 30

  • Powersgaming - Looks like a fairly notable gaming group, but most of the contents doesn't seem to be very encyclopaedic. - Mike Rosoft 13:35, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Ashe County, North Carolina - General spelling, formatting and syntax problems, someone with local knowledge would be useful. RHB 20:06, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Have done some grammatical editing. Still has no citations whatsoever.Monocle1 19:06, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Travis S Taylor - Article sounded like fan-speak, I have made some changes to the tone but some sections still lack citations. Metlin 18:51, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Ismail Kadare - poor English, needs some copyedit --Angelo 01:43, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Done my part Dilane 05:38, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

  • I've just copyedited the article too, some sections and paragraphs need to be merged, I think some ideas are being repeated several times. RHB 21:41, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Multi-agent_system - The article lacks a general description. There should be a long general description of MAS, and a short concrete example (not the other way round, as it is now) --JFromm 13:20, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Persepolis - A lot of good info here on one of the ancient world's most important cities, but it reads like it was written by someone who spoke a primary language other than English. The introduction is strong, but then it goes downhill. Lots of grammar and punctuation issues and some really weird syntax. Also, zero references. Dppowell 05:37, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Did some copyediting. Still has issues that I can't fix, mostly due to lack of familiarity with the subject and the fact that it was probably written by someone with English as a 2nd Language. I'm not familiar with the subject so someone else more familiar with ancient persia probably needs to look it over. Also, it needs citations desperately. There's a good start on a solid article here, but it needs more work.--Lendorien 00:46, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Thorough copyedit and cleanup, sorted information into sections and put into prose. RHB 16:55, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Eye dialect — this article lacks sections, has bad typography, and has too large a quotations:comment ratio. Raifʻhār Doremítzwr 02:30, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
  • History of Cuba - Cuban Rebels section has seemingly random information, and needs fluidity. Its kind of a mess, really. G.bargsnaffle 19:42, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Chinese language - Many sections are disorganised and do not conform to the language template recommended by the Wikiproject of Languages. Also, subsections are misplaced, such as loanwords, which shouldn't be listed under morphology and the content is quite difficult to read. Another discrepany is when you search for Sinitic languages, it redirects you to the Spoken Chinese entry; however, when you type Chinese languages, it brings you to Chinese language. The section on Chinese characters is still unnecessarily long even though there is already a detailed article on Chinese characters. And the whole entry is just too long, it is 57kb in size, some of the clumsier sections should be rewritten for sub-articles. I do not understand how this article managed to become a featured article before, or maybe it was much better. Please contact me if anyone would like to work together on this Shingrila 05:18, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Alice Academy - Information on the article, mostly on the characters are very confusing... -210.213.159.187
  • Aureal Semiconductor - Minor punctuation, typo, and grammar issues. At least one "editing comment" appears in the body. Structure could use a cleanup. --Dan Hendricks 02:32, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Xine - Needs references for the "DVD Issues" section.
  • Forest_School,_Horsham - indiscrimate and redundant listing of everything associated with the school 19:37, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Rashied Ali - Currently a mess of unsourced, unformatted articles, including one in French (???). I didn't want to revert back to a stub, and I suspect there may some useful information in there, but I don't have time to read through a dozen pages to find it.
  • Paravas - I have been editing this page for style and general cleanup. This page also needs citations and some consolidation of information that is repeated in the article in different places. I am continuing to work on this article but I think it will benefit from multiple hands.Dalassa 13:24, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Local area network - The referencing needs to be done better. There are references at the bottom but no in-text citation is provided.
  • Done a copyedit, needs someone with local knowledge really. The motorway names (B 451 etc) need context for the non German reader too. RHB 17:12, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
  • I gave it a copy edit and deleted the more obvious puffery and POV. Unfortunately the school's website is so poorly designed for non-Australians not connected with the school, it would take a braver person than I to wade through it looking for information. I hope a student of the school will take this on, and invited that. Accounting4Taste 22:03, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Pot Noodle - Reads like advertising and appears to violate WP:CORP--Princess Tiswas 17:26, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Heinrich_Schliemann Nothing too serious here, just needs a stylistic edit to read more like an encyclopedia entry and less like a magazine.

[edit] November 1 - 15

  • St._Bartholomew's_School - Needs general spelling and grammar cleanup. Some of the text is also perhaps too trivial and irrelevant for inclusion on Wikipedia. I-hunter 16:09, 15 November 2006 (UTC) -- SkierRMH 11:32, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Park - For such a common topic, the article seems to jump around with many small sections and doesn't present much information. It also seems to be poorly worded, particularly in the "national park" section. I cleaned up a bit, but it needs some work. Jdoty 02:12, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Article is pretty good now. Needs sources. --Lendorien 14:05, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Mountain View High School (Oregon) requires sufficient cleanup. Mgarnes2 03:39, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Locus of control is grammatically poor (the plural of locus is loci), incorrectly uses terminology (says that people are internal/external loci, when instead it should be that they *have* internal/external loci), doesn't cite it's sources (source that women tend to have external loci more than men?), and needs major paragraph reformatting. Tarayani 02:50, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

  • ZigBee is starting to read like a bunch of ad copy for vendors. --MountainLogic 20:14, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Article (especially in the introduction) needs to be rewritten to make it more accessable to the layman. No-one but major computer geeks will ever really know what the heck it's talking about as it currently stands. I can't help because I'm one of the laymen.--Lendorien 23:32, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Malaric not a horrible mess but not nearly adequate Devotchka 03:05, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Is a serviceable stub at the moment, but needs sourcing. --Lendorien 08:22, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Jedediah Smith This is a mess all of the information is pretty much just made up to be a joke, the article talks about hot pockets, sasquatches and wizards. Please fix. 68.207.117.147 04:41, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Article seems to have been vandalized; I have fixed what I could find. Can the rest of the contents - most of which has been added in this series of edits - be verified? - Mike Rosoft 13:04, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Mizu ni Sumu Hana is just a confusing mess. I tried to fix it myself but since I don't know anything about the series, I cannot do it accurately. What does "Rikka is hospitalized but when she finally leaves the hospital she can't move on from the trauma because she is continuously attacked in several bizarre ways involving water" mean?? Even if I can fix the grammar I can't really explain what the series is about. Devotchka 01:28, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
  • England national basketball team - This page has some problems. There are several places with poor grammar, and some of it seems to have been directly copied. -- Discboy 02:35, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Henry Ward Beecher - The article is just a continuous stream of quotes from sources, and is therefore extremely disjointed. Anchoress 03:54, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
  • I've done a few things here and there in this article. Still needs work. The same two sources are quoted repeatedly for almost the entire article. --Lendorien 09:55, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Sport in Canada - Information just thrown together. It has some good information but needs a bit of rewritting.
  • Origins of Santa Claus - This article seems to need cleanup for several reasons. See its discussion page for more information.
  • Contemporary Art - although listed as a "project" this article has not been improved recently, it is still poorly organized, lacks any citations, is missing much essential information, and has a glut of irrelevant details. This is a true shame, as this is a topic on which many people have expert opinions.
  • Appears to have been significantly cleaned up. It's now more of a gateway article to other topics. Still lacks sourcing, but is definately servicable now. --Lendorien 20:12, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] October 2006

  • Reverse mortgage has a tag saying that it's been labeled for cleanup since October 2006. I've worked on it but it still needs a good bit of help (mostly citations and a look from someone who understands the topic better than I do), so I'm sliding it back into the queue.--edi 06:08, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
  • List of PlayStation 1 games - needs references for every game listed. Each game is also missing the entries for it's developer, publisher, and release date. Ceros 02:59, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Word Of Life - this article is not written in the expected tone of an encyclopedia article. The information seems to have a POV, and some poor grammar (I didn't know the past tense of add was adden!) It also needs to be linked with other Wikipedia articles (I've only had time to internally links a few things). -- 5ptcalvinistMy friends call me "Cal"
  • hard to know where to begin on this one. The article is huge, but it's not set up like a normal religious denomination article. The language in it needs to be cleaned up as it's very POV and non-encyclopaedic. It also needs reorganization and perhaps some culling. -- Lendorien 14:41, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I've reworked the entire article, trying to give it NPOV, remove unnecessary information, make it encyclopedic, rearrange to a more logical order, add a few links, and just generally polish up the writing. I'd |FivePointCalvinist (My Friends Call me 'Cal')]] 22:05, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
  • History of the United States (1988–present) - This article needs more external sourcing. It also has some formatting errors (including overlap at the bottom of the page). This article should also include a little more information about this time period (demographic trends, economic trends, important issues, etc ((which can possibly become separate articles in the future)) ) 5ptcalvinist T.u.L.i.P
  • Era & ERA - (1st is organized w/ emphasis on etymology, usage, and near-obsolete calendar systems; 2nd is Dab) Era (geology) (which probably should be Geological era) has its lk buried in Era & is unmentioned on ERA. General disfunctionality & probable WP:MOS violations.Jerzy•t
  • Hard to know what this entry is referring to. Took a look. ERA is a disambig page now. Seems ok. Era still has cleanup tag and probably could use some working over. --Lendorien 17:26, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Investor relations - At a quick glance, this looks like it was created by people from http://www.zangani.com. I removed the plug for their site, but the article itself is very much in need of cleanup. Jun-Dai 23:56, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • The article is pretty clean now. It no longer has any refs to the company, reads wella nd looks good. Just needs sources. I put the Business and economic wikiproject tag on the talk page so hopefully someone fromt here will stumble on it eventually. --Lendorien 17:21, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Podiatrist Introduction is not bad, but the rest of the article needs a lot of work. The sections for the various countries are particularly hard to follow and repetitive, and have no wiki markup. The list of conditions(?) also seems unnecessary, although some items could be incorporated into a more informative section on the work of a Podiatrist. I also get the feeling, from many parts of the article, that the text has just been copied from another source. —anskas 23:05, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • This issues remain outstanding. The article is still in need of editing and wikifying. It seems to jump around a bit and doesn't flow very well at all. I would do it myself, but I don't feel comfortable with my lack of knowledge of the subject. --Lendorien 16:10, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
  • List of experiments from Lilo & Stitch - at 82KB it's too big. Some of the descriptions could be trimmed and maybe the whole thing could be formatted better. There's also a ton of images on it - some of which aren't properly tagged and are really blurry. --Jtalledo (talk) 11:19, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Not sure how to solve this. there are a lot of experiments that are listed that do not have entries behind them. Perhaps it could be culled down to notable or seen on screen experiments? Either way, there seems to be a lot of discussion going on currently int he talk page about this issue, so maybe it'll soon be resolved. --Lendorien 16:10, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Futures exchange - is extremely confusing; I've taken macroeconomics (and garnered a 4.0, harrumph), always read the newspaper, and was totally confused about this article. It needs a good one-over by an economist.
  • Practically not been touched since posted. I posted it in the Business and Economics Wikiproject. hopefully someone willtake a look at it. --Lendorien 16:29, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Some proof reading/npov work done. Reformatting and further editing still required. Kedlav 08:31, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
  • There is a general need for cleanup on this article. As it stands right now it needs heavy reoranization to make the information flow more coherantly. I've changed some headings and moved information around, but it needs a second look. The article seems to contain link spam as the list of links at the bottom seems overly large and has no descriptions as to what they refer to or why they are significant. Article also needs sourcing. Would someone with some background give it a look over? --Lendorien 14:58, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I've given it a bit of an overhaul: cleaned up weak writing, tightened the language to be more encyclopedic, rearranged to provide more logical flow, removed some irrelevant and redundant material, fixed a couple of links, etc. However, it still needs work, most desperately with links and references. There are only a few actual tags, but there is lots of unsupported information that needs to have references cited. Also the list of external links is completely ridiculous and needs desperately to be culled. And finally, I'm still getting a handle on Wikipedia's preferred formatting (section headings, etc) so that probably needs to be touched up as well. I may be back after I cleanse my mental palate, but for now I've done all I can with it. --edi 14:47, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

  • I note that some editing seems to have occurred since the above note was posted. I reorganized the alumni section chronologically and suggested that someone connected with the school elaborate on the content-free entries under "tradition", or else they would be removed. The entries about the school buildings read as though they're referencing a map which isn't present, and non-students will find them incomprehensible. Accounting4Taste 22:31, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Igarassu - has been tagged for cleanup since November 17, 2005. It still needs a lot of work, so I'm bringing it up here, so that someone who knows the city may have a go at cleaning this up. I'm too naive. 19:46, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
  • I've done significant editing to give it better context based on info from other articles and what little I've been able to glean fromt he net. I think it works better now, though it still needs sources. --Lendorien 01:00, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Inocente de Ti - looks like copyvio. Not encyclopedic. Very long plot synopsis, long list of credits and very badly formatted. Mona-Lynn 06:38, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] September 2006

  • A1 Team USA - The article reads as if it was written by a pr company. I've edited the Background Story section [1], but the rest of the article also needs a lot of attention. Aecis I'm too busy acting like I'm not naive 10:51, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Bakersfield, California - This article is long and rambling, and probably needs some careful excision. --Ghewgill 23:59, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Odysseus - The article is poorly formatted, confusingly worded, incorrectly capitalized, and missing many important aspects of Odysseus as per his involvement in the Iliad. --Wikifried 01:35, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Peter Bruff article needs references. Currently has none. --MPW 03:12, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Infantry tactics may not represent a neutral worldview. Some assertions are not supported with detailed references. The introduction is vague and needs to be expanded.
  • King Piccolo Saga - It's inconsistent in terms of grammar, tense, and style, and reads as though a lot of it was taken from a random fan site on the internet. 68.39.249.165 07:26, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Kasha - The content of the article is out of order and messy. It could use an editor's eye. --Ahhwhereami 17:33, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Article has been much improved. Has some sources now. Needs a couple more to cover some bits of info and it'll be fine. --Lendorien 19:55, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Communication - Very poorly written, and may need expert attention on the subject.
  • There appears to be active discussion on this subject, but they lack guidance of how to organize the article. I think it would really help if someone knowledgable in general article organization could step in and offer advice. --Lendorien 19:57, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Rights of Man The article is extremely cluttered and lacking of any sources. It could be divided into subsections and some parts removed or merged into other wikipedia articles.
  • Took a first pass, there needs to be more done though. Sunspeck 06:10, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
A little better than it was orginally, but it still needs some work to make it more coherant. The various sections do not segway into one another very well. I would work on it, but I'm not very knowledgeable about the subject. --Lendorien 19:27, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Magnetic moment - There's a problem here and elsewhere with "magnetic poles," which are discussed as if they were magnetic monopoles. The magnetic moment is first defined as the pole strength times the separation. The correct definition (current times area) is given later in the article, but the earlier reference to poles is both confusing and wrong. The initial discussion of diamagnetism on this page is also confusing. --Bjheiden, 11:25 PM (EDT), 13 September 2006
  • Egyptian burial - Poor grammar in several sections, and the section on The Indestructibles completely neglects the precession of the equinoxes, although the full article on the indestructibles is a bit more informative.
  • have tried the obvious grammar/spelling/undisclosed conspiracy theories, but needs the attention of an Egyptologist (amateur or otherwise) to be truly cleaned. --Callix 12:11, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delta Upsilon - Not scholarly at all, trivial paragraphs, needs to be seriously worked on. Reads like it was copied from a fraternity brochure.

  • Vril - The article Unencyclopedic, messy, confusing.
  • Once the factual dispute is finished, then it would be appropriate to clean up. Otherwise, it may just get messed up again. Adam 01:22, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi - This article is too long and in places badly written - perhaps it should be split into several articles
  • Mohammad Nabi Mohammadi - Needs some work by someone knowledgable in Afghani history and politics. --Lendorien
  • Assiti Shards series - It has NOR issues as well as overall poor-quality writing and strikes me as fancruft, particularly the "The Assiti mechanism literary vehicle" section. -- Earle Martin [t/c] 11:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Superman in popular music - It is an almost incomprehensible mess, with no organization or flow.Rhindle The Red 12:43, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Elections in 2004 - This page does not conform to the other ways in which the other election pages have been compiled a lot of work is required on this page to bring it up to scratch--Lucy-marie 12:50, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Squirrel Boy - Is very poorly written and has an informal tone. Also, there is a specific quotes section; although it isn't (and probably won't) popular enough to have a Wikiquote section, it is still inappropriate for the article. 72.145.230.87 16:31, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Quote section has been culled, but the character listing still has a fairly informal tone. --Lendorien 00:37, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Pancharatna Kritis - Needs to be moved to Wikisource, or rewritten in a more encyclopedic style. --Siva 20:04, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Waste minimisation- Article has spelling and grammar issues, confusing, lack of context, uses lots of big words that explain little and just generally needs help. Needs someone whith knowledge of the subject to look it over. It currently has 8 tags on it. Ouch. --Lendorien 22:58, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Polish Catholic Church - A Polish wikipedian on February 25th, 2007 did some translation. He did not do all of the text, but a significant part was taken care of. Some additional translation of the portions near the end after the fall of communism would be useful to round out the article as it currently ends in 1951. Sources needed as well. --Lendorien 23:15, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Copy-edited the (English) article today for grammar and clarity. ThisIsAce 19:18, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Nomad - This entry gives the impression that nomadism and pastoralism are the same thing. Pastoralism or animal husbandry is a subsistence method, and nomadism is not, although the term is sometimes used as shorthand for pastoralism. However, any society which does not remain sedentary for a significant length of time is considered nomadic. This includes most hunter-gatherers, but the entry makes no indication of this. Also there is no logical organization of the information that is presented. An expert's contribution would be best.--LC | Talk 22:52, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
  • This article still needs expert attention. Article has seen significant improvement in the past couple months. It consists mainly of lists now. --Lendorien 17:41, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Sukyo Mahikari - Religious article needs thorough cleanup to make encyclopedic (particularly, removal of extensive self-referential editorial comments). Tearlach 16:04, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Some work done since originally posted here. Still has neutrality tag. Needs expert attention and review. --Lendorien 20:00, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Indian English - Article takes a very patronising attitude to Indian English and a lot of bad English is being passed off as Indian English. Needs a lot of attention. - Cribananda 01:00, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] June 2006

  • Gelou - a bit more context to this semi-mythical figure (most countries seem to have them). Jackiespeel 16:17, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
  • I tried to fix this a bit, but I lack the knowledge to put it into better context. It needs more context to help it make more sense to the layman. --Lendorien 02:18, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Banasthali Vidyapith - Marking as an article which reads like an advertisement, particularly since it is -- it's based (with apparent permission) off the school's promotional brochure. Also, it has no links and is missing much of the standard information (like quality information on academic programs) one would expect from a university article. Likely needs someone from India or who is personally familiar with the institution to tackle it. - Beginning 01:02, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • This issue remains outstanding. Few corrections have been made. --Lendorien 00:37, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Big Brother Australia series 3 - Needs sourcing. Ste4k 11:21, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Lalitaditya Muktapida - This article needs just some general editing (i.e. correction of spelling/grammatical errors) and also perhaps more research (Only one page out of one history book is cited).
  • Apparently this has had some editing to improve it, but it's not entirely thematically coherant at the moment. It needs to be reviewed by someone with a background in the subject to straighten things out. --Lendorien 19:20, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 2005

[edit] October 2005

[edit] October 21-30

  • Renaissance Classicism is confused and anachronistic in the discussion of visual art. The article needs to be broadened to encompass literary and philosophical forms. (Stamboultrain 19:17, 26 October 2005 (UTC))
  • Appears mostly untouched since listed. Needs sections, and the expansion mentioned above. Probably ultimately needs expert attention as the field of need is to narrow for the typical editor. --Lendorien 15:12, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Needs an expert or someone familiar with the subject to look this over and see if the issue is still outstanding. --Lendorien 16:18, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Is a servicable stub now. Did some work on it. Needs some verification and sources. Unfortunately, most available sources are in Spanish and my 13 year old highschool spanish just doesn't cut it. --Lendorien 15:08, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Karjalanpaisti (Carelian stew) - Needs to be reviewed by a cooking expert and also expanded, maybe into a wikipedia cookbook. --Thorri 12:33, 21 Oct 2005 (UTC)
  • Youth development: Link-heavy stub, esp. lks to orgs; reconsider lk to Historical pederastic couples; merge w/ something?Jerzy•t
  • Hibiscus (entertainer) - Lacks sources + has some tonal issues. Needs fact checking. Underground culture stub, may need an expert's attention. --Lendorien 23:18, 29 May 2007 (UTC) + Crovax 20:15, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
  • UK Firefighter dispute 2002/2003 - This article is about a past event, but the tense is a mix of past, present and future. Sometimes even individual sentences aren't sure whether they have happened yet or not. Thryduulf 20:43, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Tense issues fixed. I did some work and it's now about half sourced. Needs someone to do some research and fill in the rest. --Lendorien 22:23, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Jardin de Tivoli, Paris - the subject is interesting (history of Paris) ; it needs to be developed by an 'expert' with relevant information. Jpm2112 13:07, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Chinatown patterns in North America - Section on gentrification needs major help, and there's only so much I can do as I don't fully understand the issue. - Sensor 22:22, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Article lacks any sort of sourcing, makes references to demographics and trends and come soff as OR. Probably needs expert attention. --Lendorien 18:54, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Arguments for and against drug prohibition - reads like a debate, some arguments are very weak e.g. The charge of "immorality" is subjective, and can be defined differently according to different perspectives and beliefs, all of which may be valid. Thus, with such conflicting views, a law based on "morality" cannot be fairly applied to any population. Needs to be gone over for NPOV, and probably merged somewhere. Pakaran 04:44, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Seems to be fairly fair in its overview of arguments now. But there are serious sourcing issues. The article uses three different methods of sourcing. Needs to be converted to footnote intext references for entirety of article. --Lendorien 19:51, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
I did some cleanup of POV, but I don't really know much about Australian politics so I don't know how much of a help I am. It really needs someone with some knowledge about the topic. ryright 03:23, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Article reads ok now, but lacks any sourcing. Probably needs help from someone who's native to Hungary where the organization is based and speaks the language to find applicable sources. --Lendorien 22:39, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] October 1-20

  • Quarantine - Pre-ToC section is too long and a jumble of half-cited assertions, while the rest is typical 1911 EB: out of date, Anglo-centric, and with overlong paragraphs. This article may well become quite important over the next year or two, so current information would be great. -- Mpt 03:28, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Still the same as it was. It's hopelessly out of date. --Lendorien 22:38, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Still has POV issues. Did some work to correct this. Half of article is unsourced. --Lendorien 21:02, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
  • John Tunnard - apart from needing wikifying, extremely subjective account that looks like original research. Tearlach 11:23, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Issues appear to be still present. Needs sources and rewrite to cull out tone issues that make it read like a college textbook discussion. --Lendorien 19:57, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Suwannaphum needs to be NPOV'ed ("highly conjectural", "responsible modern scholarship", "attempts ... flounders on the simple fact that", "if the myth were true") by someone who knows the subject. This article also borders on original research. Aecis 11:09, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Above cited problems continue, though language is improved. Needs sources as it has none ATM. Probably needs expert to look it over. --Lendorien 17:04, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Stingless bee - This article reads like a dump of several external sources on meliponine bees - it really could use some organization, wikifying, and general cleanup. Dcfleck 13:18, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Appears much improved since posted. Still needs sources. --Lendorien 17:04, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Continued the improvement, still needs some work. I will continue. Fifth Rider 19:51, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Haifa - English could be improved, transportation section is too detailed - maybe deserves its own article, academic institution could be better ... etc. --Amir E. Aharoni 10:57, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Picture formatting is a bit off in places. Needs help with sourcing. --Lendorien 15:55, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Table of historical exchange rates - Various users in the past have attempted to update this table, but the result is currently an unreliable mess. Can someone with a knowledge of currency rates sort this out? -- llywrch 03:09, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Still is tagged for cleanup. Accuracy disputed. Likely still has same problems. --Lendorien 15:50, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Amedeo Guillet needs cleanup by someone familiar with Italian military history, everything is written as one chapter. bjelleklang 00:47, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Has been cut into sections now, but still remains unsourced. Some text editing and organization still needed. Still tagged for cleanup. --Lendorien 15:50, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Hardpan - Needs some structure, organization, and sources. LQ 01:44, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Completely unsourced. Otherwise fine. --Lendorien 15:50, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Completely unsourced. Otherwise is fine. --Lendorien 15:50, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • This is not the right place for such a debate, but for info I have merged the final and first paragraphs to make it clear that both terms are used (and there is a redirect from one page to the other so the page name is not very important). Andreww 10:42, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
  • This article still lacks sources and is completely unverified. --Lendorien 15:24, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Perpetua: An article about an early Christian martyr that mostly just needs some improvements in readability. Deadsalmon 23:58, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Still needs sourcing. --Lendorien 14:41, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Pallava: Organization is poor. English is muddled. There seems to be some original research mixed in there, although that might just be an artifact of poor composition. Probably needs a solid fact-check. Justin Bacon 15:57, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Nick Blinko: (UK rocker) PoV, wikify, keep focused, cnv Amazon template to ISBN one.Jerzy•t
  • Added inforbox. Still needs work. Probably some POV issues. Sources lacking --Lendorien 14:07, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Needs wikifying + sources. Some text editing. --Lendorien 14:07, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] September 2005

  • Direct-to-video - Poorly written, lack of info, badly designed and senseless.
  • Still not pretty. Nswinton 21:51, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Reworded, tightened up a bit. --Animakitty 20:11, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Still needs all the above. It's just a stub. Nswinton 21:51, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Copy-edited to make linguistic sense, but needs some research (particularly dates and chronology). Accounting4Taste 18:14, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Nancy Astor, Viscountess Astor is in need of some reorganization. Various sections could probably be subcategorized (for example: 'Virginia', 'New York' and 'England' — although I'm not sure what heading they could fall under; also, 'Parliament' and 'The House doesn't miss anybody' should probably go together). jareha 05:36, 21 September 2005 (UTC)
  • NPOV and unreferenced still. Nswinton 21:51, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Needs expert help. Expert attention needed! Nswinton 21:51, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Besides possibly narrow worldview, this articles isn't in terribly bad shape. Nswinton 21:51, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Many of these Myst articles smack of OR. Has no sourcing either. --Lendorien 15:08, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Nursing Informatics - majority of article is a reprint of a memo from a company which lists opportunities in the field. This seems inappropriate material for Wikipedia. Also, external references not formatted standard way.--Vitamin D 19:25, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Right now (4/07)there is really only an opening definition and 6 more definitions in the definition section! Some good refs but no article. tagged for expand. --killing sparrows 06:40, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Went in and properly formatted the talk page, added it to the medicine wikiproject and tagged for expert attention. Expert Attention Needed! --Lendorien 19:33, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
  • I did a very minor copy edit of this, but frankly I don't understand what's being said well enough to edit it sensibly. It seems as though the author under discussion has defined words in a very specific way to contribute to his argument and the argument seems to be a tautological circle. If A = B = C = A, it's very difficult to find a place to start. I suspect that this would be most valuably edited by someone who both understands the argument and disagrees with it. Accounting4Taste 18:06, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Expert attention needed! --Lendorien 17:11, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
  • I have some background in the subject but it's not really my specialty. I did some work on it and I think I improved it, but it still needs work, most significantly references.--edi 23:21, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
