Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Hip dysplasia (canine)/archive1
Self-nom - I think this has become a thorough article on this common veterinary medical condition. It has suitable balance and images, and is well written and informative on a broad scale. Other points are, it is non-controversial in content, the text and structure has been long-term stable, and it has been added to both the Cats and Dogs WikiProjects. This article exemplifies most FA criteria well, as far as I can see. In-line point by point recognition of sources may be an issue, against this formal sources are cited and several sections are linked to source articles rather than in-line cites.

- Strong object Nice start, and you've done a lot of work, but it's not nearly ready for FAC. At first glance, at least, you need to expand the lead, reference the article with one style (and a preponderance of peer-reviewed PMID sources), remove all the external jumps, and follow WP:MEDMOS. Have a look at Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine, and the most recent medical FAs (Bacteria, Influenza, and Tourette syndrome). Sandy (Talk) 20:49, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- Comment I think it would be better to split into human and animal hip dysplasia articles. And also before nominating here a peer review can be very useful. Not anywhere near FA quality right now. --WS 23:37, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose: doesn't cite sources enough, doesn't comply with WP:MOS.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 18:45, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
