Reviewer: I will quickfail this nom. There is a section with a single line, and two others with a single paragraph. This is B-class at best. Nergaal (talk) 20:22, 24 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Here are the issues I found:

Part of me is still reluctant to pass this just because of how short the article is. That being said, I have looked through the sources, and beyond the passing mentions in game recaps, there is little tangible to be added in. The last point is fair, since there's a fine line between adding in stats and overburdening the article with them; I know I've done the latter on some of my baseball ones. Really the only issue if the shortness, that doesn't mean it's not comprehensive. What it does do, however, is pass all GA criteria, and as a result I will pass the article.

Result: Kept Nominator happy with current state of the article AIRcorn (talk) 08:27, 25 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

The prose is choppy and basically a list of his accomplishments (which admittedly, are many). Each section is relatively short and only contains positive information. Many of the references are statistics, lists, or record books. None 1, 3, 4, and 6 of the criteria for a GA are not met in my opinion. - Mnnlaxer | talk | stalk 04:38, 4 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • Comment Section 6 can't be covered as their is no images for it to go under. Therefore this automatically ticks that section. I do agree though, that their seems to be a lot of short sentences in consecutive sentences with the main problem being in the Background section.

  • Comment I worked on the prose a bit to try and make it flow better. Images are not a requirement and we can't add negative stuff if there is none covered in reliable sources so I don't think 4 is an issue unless a good source (taking into account BLP and Weight) is provided. As for broadness, I agree that is an issue. However, again we can only use what the reliable sources give us. Sometimes a short article is all that is possible. @Mnnlaxer and HawkAussie: plus the nominator and original reviewer. AIRcorn (talk) 22:14, 20 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
I appreciate your work and I'm fine with passing the article now. Thanks. - Mnnlaxer | talk | stalk 22:52, 21 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
