Lead

[edit]
  • It's too much like an ad. 3 paragraphs dedicated in explaining how great "Little Athletics" is? You should also consider including a brief history of it.  Done
  • The body doesn't mention anything about "Little A's or Little Aths"  Removed

Little Athletics Events

[edit]
  • Change heading to "Events"  Done
  • What do all those abbreviations stand for? (VIC) (NSW) (QLD) (SA) (WA) (TAS) (ACT)  Linked
  • Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), there should be a non-breaking space -   between a number and the unit of measurement.  Fixed

Structure and Governance

[edit]
  • Consider merging the two paragraphs together.  Merged

History

[edit]
  • There are a lot of short sub sections in section 3.2.1. Perhaps merging the short ones together would help.  Merged
  • The sub section titles contain peacock phrases. It sounds more like an essay. You should just include the year.  Changed title
  • Section 3.2.2 contains a lot of in line citations to the same ref. Consider only adding it at the end of the paragraph.  Done
  • Same thing with section "3.2.3", "3.2.4", and "3.2.5"  Done
  • "Geelong brach" - is this a typo?  Fixed
  • "However Billingham still could not get support for Little Athletics from VAAA instead they suggested to drop the junior competition and focus on the rapidly expanding senior one." - no punctuation in between?  Rephrased
  • "VAAA and they accepted both" - should be "VAAA and both were accepted"  Rephrased
  • "200 boys and girls more than 200 boys and girls" - doesn't make sense  Fixed

Current

[edit]
  • "little athletes" - should just be athletes  Fixed

Other

[edit]
  • one dead link. See here  Fixed
  • External Links go after the References  Moved
