This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because due to a change in the featured topic criteria, the Canadian election timelines featured topic has 3 months to satisfy criterion 3.c. by getting a peer review done for this article. Thanks, Tompw (talk) (review) 10:32, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

• 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 October 2008.

  In order...

  1. Lead length: this has been reworked, but can't really be made any longer without woffle
  2. Link density: All links are definately useful and needed... this will be always be a link-heavy article.
  3. Lack of images: Two added.
  4. No image top right: Done
  5. Lack of infobox: None suitable
  6. Article length: Can't really expand - this is a list primarily.
  7. Reference formatting: done
  8. Copyediting: Done.

Ruhrfisch comments: Very briefly, here are some suggestions for improvement. If you want more comments, please ask here.

• The 2008 election column is confusing as now shown - since the first entry is "Cancelled" I thought the whole election was cancelled
• Spell out abbreviations before first use, so MLA in On 20 August 2008, Evyagotailak stepped down as the MLA.
• Internet refs need URL, title, author if known, publisher and date accessed. {{cite web}} and other cite templates may be helpful. See WP:CITE and WP:V
• I think The election in the Akulliq riding was cancelled 7 October 2008 due to an appeal by Jack Anawak over his residency disqualification.[12] needs more explanation.
• There is a one sentence paragraph in the Lead - could this be expanded or combined with the preceding paragraph?

Hope this helps. If my comments are useful, please consider peer reviewing an article, especially one at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog (which is how I found this article). Yours, Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 03:51, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

• In order:

  1. 2008 column: dealt with by filling it in properly, now the 2008 election has been held :-)
  2. MLA spelt out.
  3. {{cite web}} applied as much as needed (I think I've 'got em all)
  4. Lead issues: Reworked things somewhat.

  Thanks for your suggestions, all of which have been most useful. In a way, this wasn't the best time for a peer reveiw due to the rcent election. Anyway, I've included all your suggestions. Tompw (talk) (review) 20:55, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
