Derogatory term used

PIIGS is a derogatory term, as perfectly clear in the article hyperlinked to it. It exists and there's no problem referring it in an explanatory manner, as in its own article, but using it normally in other articles to describe the countries associated with it is not correct at all. 212.30.210.198 (talk) 23:05, 22 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Result: The effects section has not been updated since 2015, with the exception of one sentence. No significant improvements since nomination. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 17:14, 22 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Tagged for update needed, original research, failed verification. Overly long sections make it difficult to parse. Use of the word 'current' to mean 2011(?).. Needs significant work to get back to GA standards. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 18:08, 9 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Removed the word current from the article body. Removed sentance with failed verification - was a speculation that never happened.
What do you mean by parse? As in difficult to read? The tool you are using is having issues with it? MediaWiki itself having trouble with it? or something else? Snævar (talk) 01:11, 15 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for starting the work :).
I mean it's difficult to read. Ideally, there shouldn't be more than about 6 paragraphs in a single section, and those paragraphs shouldn't exceed ~150 words typically. The WP:Proseline makes it even less attractive to read, and is a symptom of not adhering to WP:summary style imo. There is something odd going on with the tables making it more difficult too; there is no space to the right of any of the tables.
If you plan on bringing it back to GA standards, I'm happy to make a more detailed list of issues. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 17:01, 15 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hello @Snævar. Do you intent to continue working on the article to bring it back to GA? Femke (alt) (talk) 12:28, 20 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
