    • First sentence of lead is dull and needs to flow a bit with the next one. Start by explaining what the Phoenix Suns is and then say they've had 12 head coaches in their franchise history.
    • In general I would expand the lead a bit more.
    • You need a note to explain why second stints have a dash in the # column.
    • "Awards Won" can be "Awards won"
    • en-dash should separate the years in the link to the 07/08 season.
    • MacLeod and Johnson link to disambiguation pages.

Resolved stuff from NapHit (talk) 19:12, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments
  • "Found in 1968," should be founded
  • "The Suns currently play their home games in the US Airways Center." - I think this should say "at the US Airways Center" instead of in
  • "There have been 13 head coaches for the Phoenix Suns franchise" this sentence does not make grammatical sense change it to "The Phoenix Suns have had 13 head coaches."
  • When clicking on the note a in the notes section, it does not jump to the corresponding ref, which suggests you have not placed the reference label to accompany the note label

Not far off FL standard just address these iisues and you'll have my support NapHit (talk) 14:31, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

  • "The Suns are an American professional basketball team" -- Give the team's full name on first use
  • Could say in the Lede that D'Antoni left at the end of the season, or that Terry Porter is yet to coach the team in a game.
  • Image caption needs a full stop
  • The sentence starting "Founded in 1968,..." is a bit too long and clunky. Can it be made less wordy and/or shorter/split into two?
