- A script has been used to generate a semi-automated review of the article for issues relating to grammar and house style; it can be found on the automated peer review page for February 2009.
This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I want to see what improvements could be made to promote this long-overdue article to good article standard. I would appreciate more help from other editors in improving the page. Some sections are incomplete because I need help finding sources etc.

- Comments from ChrisTheDude (talk · contribs)
- Song titles should be in quote marks
- Comma after "first series of Popstars"
- There seems to be a random apostrophe after "Popstars: The Rivals Extra"
- The use of "Popstars The Rivals" vs "Popstars: The Rivals" is inconsistent - pick one and stick to it throughout
- No need for capital on "Presenters" in section heading
- Why is "Big Brother" a red link? There is certainly an article on the UK version
- No need for capital on "Company" in "Record Company executive"
- Don't refer to judges by their first names alone, surnames is the encyclopedic way to do it
- Some dates are in US format - as this is a UK subject the UK format should be used eg "5 August 2002" not "August 5, 2002"
- ....and don't wikilink dates
- Refs 1 and 2 within the "Auditions" section are not formatted or even enclosed within <ref> tags - also, they should come after punctuation marks, not before
- "For the first few episodes" - not very precise
- "the 6 remaining" => "the six remaining"
- Kimberley Walsh's name is spelt wrong throughout
- ....and what's with the asterisk after her age? It doesn't seem to be explained
- Why is the original artist listed for some songs but not others?
- I will add the artists that I can now, although some I am not sure about because of multiple songs with the same name.
- Under "winners", almost all of the section about OTV is one huuuuuuuge sentence which needs to be broken up
- "She was also chosen as the Great Britain's" - lose the word "the"
Hope this helps -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:54, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
