With my profound interest and supporting of the Buffalo Sabres, I'd though I would do my duty and make this a featured list. Unfortunately for my beloved Sabres, they have gone on a 13-year postseason drought, which leads to some interesting statistics and backlash. This is my first rodeo, but hopefully won't be my last.

[edit]

This review is based off this version of the page.

Source review: Pending

  • Reliable enough for the information being cited
  • Consistent date formatting
  • Consistent and proper reference formatting
  • Appropriate wikilinks where applicable
  • Spot checked that sources match what they are being cited for

Feedback:

  • Your citation wikilinking style is unclear to me. Are you intending to only link the first time a source is mentioned?
Not sure but it doesn't matter. Should be consistent now.
  • Ref 1 – Link doesn't work, might need to be tweaked
Done, changed url status to dead.
Done.
  • Refs 2 and 3 – Inconsistent formatting. Better to just use Hockey Reference as the website on both with no publisher listed
Done.
  • Ref 6 – The reference should be marked as subscription access, you can do with the |access=subscription parameter
Done.
  • Ref 8 – Is this the newest version of the record book that's available? NFL teams often have a pretty detailed media guide they release, and I can't find one for the Sabres, but I did find this for the Penguins as an example of what I'd personally look for if I was doing an NHL team seasons list.
The most recent version was published in 2018 and then discontinued. Replaced.
  • Ref 9 – Link to HockeyDB as a website instead of "The Internet Hockey Database" as the publisher
Done.
  • Refs 11, 13, and 20 – Need to be tagged as subscription access
Done.
Done.
  • Refs 14 and 17 – Is there a reason ESPN is listed as the publisher instead of website?
Not that I am aware of, changed to website.
Done.
  • Ref 16 – Link redirects when clicked, mark as dead or update link
Done.
  • Ref 16 – The archived link, which does work, shows an author named Ira Podell, add this, and Associated Press as the agency
Done.
  • Ref 17 – At the bottom of this source it says info from the AP was used in this report, not sure what to make of that personally, but felt I'd call it out so that we can ponder whether we should list AP as the agency or just let it be
It'd be nice if they specified what information was used but it seems like ESPN was the main writer of the story so I would leave it personally.
  • Ref 18 – Link to CNBC
Done.
  • Ref 19 – Add Tom Gulitti as the author
Done.
  • Ref 21 – Should be a note, not a reference
Done.
  • I'm not seeing the info on who the teams lost to in the playoffs
As in a reference showing the Sabres' playoff history?

That's what I've got for now. Please ping me when the above issues have been addressed. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:04, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
