Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/2003 NFL Draft

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This has been brought to the quality level that the 2004-2006 NFL Drafts, all featured lists, have been brought up to. It is detailed with plenty of references, and the intro is also about as good as I can make it. --Wizardman 18:17, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone else? --Wizardman 04:56, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • The first "External link" 2003 NFL Draft is clearly the general reference used for this list and so should be named as the reference (a bullet point at the end of the References section). Less sure about the second one – did you use it as a reference or is it just supplementary info?
  • The citations/external link formatting need to be improved. You need to give the full title of the web page/news article, the author (if available), the publisher and the date published. The {{cite web}} and {{cite news}} templates are recommended.
  • The Mr Irrelevant comment isn't a reference (it is a footnote) and isn't really required since it just repeats what the lead says.

Conditions 1 and 3 met, I'll work on #2. --Wizardman 16:06, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • We didn't mean for you to remove the footnotes, which I've new restored. All that is required is that the citations are as complete and accurate as possible. The templates help by prompting you for such attributes as author, date, etc and do some simple formatting. Some folk prefer to hand-format so don't like the templates – they aren't mandatory. Don't bother with "format" for HTML pages – it is only useful for uncommon document types like PowerPoint or Word. Colin°Talk 09:39, 26 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
