Battle of Plassey

edit

I have completely revamped this article - the previous version was a little low on info and references. It's not even B-class. Peer review it please - Cheers!--MT (talk) 18:48, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I can't really comment on the content as I have no knowledge of the subject, so I have just a few style suggestions:

  • According to the Featured article tools, there are four disambig links that should be fixed: [1];

  • According to the external link checker, there is one dead external link: [2];

  • alt text could be added to the images (instructions can be found at WP:ALT);
  Done--MT (talk) 16:10, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • in the References section the external links could be embedded into the title, using the {{cite book}} template like this (note you don't have to use the template, it can be done manually):
Orme, Robert (1861). A History of the Military Transactions of the British Nation in Indostan from the year MDCCXLV, Vol. II. Pharoah and Co. OCLC 46390406.
  Done--MT (talk) 16:10, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • in the References and Further reading sections ISBNs could be added to all works. If they are too old to have ISBNS, OCLC numbers can be found for them by going to [3];
  Done--MT (talk) 16:10, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • values such as miles and feet etc, could have converts added to them by using the {{convert}} template (miles to kilometres, feet to metres etc);
  Done--MT (talk) 16:10, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • if some more images could be found it would be good to use them to break up some of the large sections of text;
I'm going to need some help on this - I'm not very clear on this "fair use" and other stuff. I used images from Wikimedia as far as possible.--MT (talk) 16:10, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • sometimes you use a comma for numbers of a thousand or more, such as this "3,000 soldiers " but then at other times you don't, such as this "2000 horsemen".

  • Looks quite good to me, nice work. If you've got any questions about imaging licencing I'm happy to try to help. I'm not an expert, though. User:Moonriddengirl has some expertise in this area, and if you ask her nicely she is very good at helping out with these sorts of questions too. She's very busy though, so probably best to try myself or others on the project first. Cheers. AustralianRupert (talk) 22:37, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
