Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Peer review/Zita of Bourbon-Parma
I've spent an awful lot of time on this over the last few days. I know it only has one source, but then works of depth about Zita of Bourbon-Parma are somewhat lacking. It should get Good Article status, as I don't think anything's missed out.--Lec CRP1 00:25, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
This article still needs a bit of polishing before it's ready for GA in my opinion. Here are my suggestions:
- This one's the biggie... References need to come after punctuation. Sometimes there is a period, reference, then another period; that should be fixed as well.
- Date linking... Stand-alone years should not be linked. Dates like July 1776 should not be linked either. However, dates like July 4, 1776 should always be linked.
- The section: Beliefs about the death of Crown Prince Rudolf needs some referencing.
- What does "Issue" have to do with children? Also, could the section possibly be turned into prose
- The ancestors table probably doesn't need the father, father's mother, etc. labels. That's just an opinion though.
- The references section should be split into a Notes and References section. The notes should have all the citations and the references (could be called Cited works) section should have the book listed. Also, some of the references look like they're duplicates. Just do this: <ref name=whatever>Citation here</ref>. For the duplicate citation replace it with <ref name=whatever/>
If you have any questions on my review just leave a note on my talk page. You've done a great job! Psychless 04:14, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
The following suggestions were generated by a real person, and are applicable for the article in question. (Yes, I read the talk page!)
- You might consider expanding the lead into a summary of the article.
- "and so rumours of the 'Italian' Zita began to be mutterered" Can you re-phrase or be more specific?
- Dandelion salad is now considered an unusual delicacy, served in top (or pretentious) restaurants. Are we sure the case wasn't the same then?
- The "Crown Prince Rudolf" section should be integrated with the text and any unsourced material deleted.
- Please format the dates in "Issue" section. Psychless, I have asked, elsewhere in the past, whether "Issue" sections should be renamed "Children", but had no response.[1]
Well done – fantastic job at improving the article. DrKiernan 07:34, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
- I think I made sufficient changes, though there may be the odd dot or comma I've missed. Still not quite sure about all those notes, but better safe than sorry. I've put it up for Good Article nomination now --Lec CRP1 16:32, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
