Wikipedia:Peer review/National Geographic Bee/archive1

I've listed this article for peer review because a lot of the information seems to be false, and it seems to be written rather poorly. Anyone else have any different opinions about this article?


Thanks,

  • When it says in the State/National level that the winners recieve "some newly published geography books, such as new atlases" in addition to money, I have seen globes given instead. See [1] for evidence. Says, in addition to winning money, he "won a globe." Also ask User:Bart133 for help, he qualified for the national round.
  • In the chart for state qualifiers, is there a way to not have abbreviations? I don't know what CHEC, SLU, FISH or S.H.A.R.E. mean. I don't know if that can be fixed or not.
  • The national winners chart seems to be good.

More:

  • This article needs more, better pictures. The two there, while the bottom one (the one with 10 kids) is appropriate, the top one doesn't really represent the bee. The pictures shown are very low res, and make the kids look somewhat retarded. (See talk page of the article). Maybe a picture of the state qualification test packet could be added. Or this years finalists.
  • This article needs references. Also, there needs to be inline citations.
  • I'm sure the article could be under some wikiproject.
  • Talk to User:Mike Halterman about this review, he left a notice on the talk page about being interested in the article.
