Talk:Acrisure Stadium/GA1
GA Review
[edit]- Lead
- "Heinz Field is a stadium located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania." I think you should say what sort of stadium it is. E.g. "Heinz Field is an American football stadium located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania."
- History
- "After discussions over the Pittsburgh Pirates building a full-time baseball park, a proposal was made to renovate Three Rivers Stadium into a full-time football facility." Wikilink Pittsburgh Pirates. Did they use Three Rivers Stadium? Was this why there were proposals to convert it into a full-time football stadium? When were these discussions?
- From the sources that I have, I only know that the discussions took place.
- "Others criticized the $281 million of public money allocated for Plan B." Who does others refer to?
- What was the difference between the first official and unofficial opening games?
- A pre-season game is basically practice, though the stadium was used and people attended it wasn't officially a game.
- I wondered if this was so. I would add some note to the first official game to say this, even if it's just something like official regular season opening. Peanut4 (talk) 00:53, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

- Wikilink David Priestley.
- He doesn't have an article, I guess he went no farther than college ball.
- No worries. I'd add a brief explanation to who he is, even if it's just his position. Peanut4 (talk) 00:53, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

- "The Steelers were scheduled to open Heinz Field on September 16 with a Steelers game against the Cleveland Browns," The Steelers mentioned twice here. I think it needs a slight tweak.
- "Thus moving the stadium's premiere to October 7, against the Cincinnati Bengals." This sentence lacks a main verb. Either change it to a clause of the previous sentence. Or re-write it.
- Features
- "The surface was re-surfaced multiple times," surface used twice. I would find a new word for one of these. In fact surface or a derivative four times in one par.
- MOS
- Numerals and units, e.g. 1,500 seats should use non-breaking space. I.e. 1,500 seats.
A few things to do, but nothing substantial, so I'll put it on hold. By the way, some really nice images on there. Peanut4 (talk) 18:55, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

A really nice job, well written with some good images. I don't know if the article is too short, or it's too early in the stadium's history to go to FAC, but I certainly think it's worth a shot. I would suggest getting a peer review or any suggestions to see if there's anything I've missed, particularly anything American football specific or possible expansion. But otherwise a very good article. Well done. Peanut4 (talk) 01:10, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
