Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Peer review/BTR-90
I recently got this article to B-class, and I'm thinking of improving it further if possible. I haven't done anything higher than B before, so I'd appreciate any comments, suggestions and advice on this. Chamal Talk ± 00:30, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit]- Some comments, it needs quite a bit of work to reach above B.
- MOS stuff
- WP:LEAD: The lead needs expanding so that it complies with LEAD. It needs to completely summarise the article and not contain any text that is not within the body of the article.
- Image:BTR-90.jpg I don't think this qualifies as Fair-use. Free images are available and we have one lower down in the article.
- WP:MOSNUM: In the infobox and throughout, you should convert forms of measurement, {{convert}} is useful for that. It also puts in non-breaking spaces which are needed (
30 mm)
- Content stuff
- The prose needs a lot of work: Development was commenced in the early 90s... should be Development commenced in the early 90s...
- There are a lot of one and two sentence paragraphs. These should be merged so that the text flows better.
- What does 8X8 wheeled mean? It looks like it has 4 wheels on each side to the layman. Can you explain what this means in the text?
- The "Variants" section seems to be very small. Can it be expanded?
- Some sources also call it the Rostok APS. This isn't discussed in the text.
This is not a complete list, but it should provide you with a start. The article is a very good start, it just needs finishing and expansion in places. If you have any questions, leave them here or on my talkpage. Regards. Woody (talk) 13:21, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
