Continuing with the theme of Arsenal, this is the third and final section of the completed players list. Again, it's modelled on lists which have been promoted, and illustrated with pictures. Please note that Soccerbase stats cannot be entirely trusted; for instance it states Remi Garde and Luís Boa Morte have made 28 and 14 starts respectively, when in actual fact it's one less for both. For that reason, I've cross-checked all apps with this and the club's database. Would greatly welcome any sort of feedback, ta...Lemonade51 (talk) 16:31, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by Parutakupiu

  • Shouldn't the list be updated to the most recent match?
  • Stuart Taylor is provided with Latvian nationality. Double check for other erroneous instances.
  • A whole Notes column for just one note? Might as well place that one note after the player's name.
  • Instead of a See also section, perhaps it would be more helpful to put those links in hatnote templates at the top of the lead?

Source review

All good on the sources (I made one minor tweak). The only thing I'd say is that it may be worth while archiving the web sources to stop link rot. That's not a step needed for FLC, but it may avoid problems in the future. - SchroCat (talk) 07:56, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Only one comment: we say "The club's name was shortened to Arsenal in 1914": the preceeding text doesn't make it clear that it was Woolwich A by that time, not Royal A. It's only a minor point, but it may be worth a one-line footnote to clarify? - SchroCat (talk) 07:56, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. My only comments are suggestions and not necessary for my support. It may be helpful to have an inline citation on the last sentence of the lede pointing to Arsenal's current roster. Also, since there are only two notes, it may be better to not set the column width at 50em. In a very wide screen set-up, the 50em will put the notes in two columns, but since there are only two notes it looks kind of funny (creates white space because the first note is so much longer than the second). Again, neither of these are necessary for my support. Good work! « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 15:27, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. Everything looks good! Thanks, « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 18:04, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
