Denver, Colorado

This article was recently made a Good Article, and as part of its FA push, I am looking for feedback. What does it need for FA candidacy? Judgesurreal777 05:08, 17 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think you might look at the Chicago article as a way to make it better. Think about fewer lists of things and more paragraphs. The Hosting stuff under Sports may need to be cut down a bit. Try looking into the history for elements that are of broad interest. For example, the United Way had its roots in the Denver church community. Climate seems a bit big--how about a graph that summarizes the climate instead of the 2 tables? Are there neighborhood articles for Denver? Hilltop? 5 Points? LoDo? Bonnie Brae? A paragraph about these might be good content. I also do not see anything about all the houses in Denver being brick after the fires in the 1920s. This is something that stands out, to me at least --Chrispounds 13:56, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

San Francisco, California, which recently passed FAC, is another one you could look at as a guideline for ideas. It is one of the best articles I've read here on Wikipedia. --Nebular110 14:38, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please punctuate your refs correctly. The lead is killing me: it's way too busy, and not enticing or compelling. The TOC is rambling and overwhelming, suggesting the article needs better organization. Some of the sections are short and stubby. Is all of that See also necessary, or can some of it be incorporated into the article? Sandy 21:47, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
