GA Review
[edit]- This review is transcluded from Talk:Terrence Cody/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.
Reviewer: –Grondemar 03:05, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
Working Will aim to complete this review in the next couple of days. –Grondemar 03:05, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
Some early comments—I'm still in process of reviewing the article:
- You might want to better center the infobox picture of Cody; he's a bit shifted to the left.
- Note this is minor and won't hold up GA status. –Grondemar 04:08, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- The WP:LEAD needs expansion to cover the full article, perhaps to two paragraphs. A third can be added when Cody gets sufficient NFL experience.
- I added [citation needed] tags where I thought a citation was needed. Please address.
- The "Alabama" section is somewhat dense. Would it make sense to create "2008" and "2009" subheadings?
Thanks. –Grondemar 21:33, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
I have completed my review; in addition to the above, while I copyedited the article, I think the prose needs work. Parts of the article repeat between sections, such as the Mike Mayock quote on the Senior Bowl, and many other parts just don't flow well. Please review and attempt to improve. Also, while it certainly isn't a requirement, you might want to look into list-defined references: I have found using them makes it far easier to copyedit the prose.
- It is reasonably well written.

- No problem, no rush. Thanks for letting me know. –Grondemar 14:40, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
I've re-revied the revised article, made a couple of copyedited, and decided that it now meets the GA criteria. Therefore, I am passing this article's GAN. Great work! –Grondemar 03:52, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

GA concerns
[edit]I am concerned that this article no longer meets the good article criteria. Some of my concerns are listed below:
- There is uncited text in the article, particularily the recently added information.
- The lead does not mention any of this person's legal issues.
- There is no information post-2016. Is there any recent events that need to be added to this article?
Is anyone willing to address the above, or should this go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 19:04, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
