Some recomendations for improvement

[edit]

This isn't a GAN review, just some quick recomendations for improvement.

  • Statements that are likely to be challenged and statistics need inline citations.
  • Imperial measurements should be accompanied by the metric equivalent in brackets, and vice versa. A convertion template can be used, such as {{convert|5|m|ft|0}}.
  • There should not be anything in the lead not mentioned in the rest of the article.
  • Only full dates or dates with a day and a month should be linked.
  • Web references need the author, publisher, publishing date and access date. Epbr123 (talk) 10:23, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Failed "good article" nomination

[edit]

This article failed good article nomination. This is how the article, as of February 6, 2008, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: Fail, very sparse overview, prose does not "flow," quite disorganized, long history section, little else, no idea what this competion is or what spectators need to know to enjoy the event. Has [[WP:NPOV}Neutrality]] issues, does not actually explain much about what actually happens, etc.
2. Factually accurate?: Fail, may be accurate as far as it goes, but not a lot of cites, no support for statements like "the greatest," many peacock words and unencyclopedic commentary
3. Broad in coverage?: Fail, article is very short, many red links, not well explained
4. Neutral point of view?: Fail, reads like a promotional brochure or ad copy, not an encyclopedic
5. Article stability? Pass, but it needs a LOT of work to get anywhere close to GA
6. Images?: Pass - could be better, but acceptable


When these issues are addressed, the article can be renominated. If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it have it reassessed. Thank you for your work so far.

I think it's the other way around, looks like a wikipedia mirror to me, but we could ask some other folks to look into it. Montanabw(talk) 00:01, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It's the other way around. Liquisearch is a known mirror, and they credit wikipedia at the bottom of the page. Kuru (talk) 13:59, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Good to confirm. Montanabw(talk) 08:05, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
