Citations[edit]

Can someone here find a bit of citations so that this article could go up to the GA standard? – Plarem (User | talk | contribs) 20:54, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, I found some links... – Plarem (User | talk | contribs) 09:47, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Linking[edit]

WP:OVERLINK specifically says:

"Unless they are particularly relevant to the topic of the article, it is generally inappropriate to link:
  • plain English words;
  • terms whose meaning would be understood by almost all readers;
  • items that would be familiar to most readers, such as the names of major geographic features and locations, religions, languages, common professions and common units of measurement (particularly if a conversion is provided);
  • dates."

GA Nomination[edit]

This article is not eligible for GA status because it is a WP:List#List articles and Wikipedia:Good article criteria#What is not a good article? states "Lists, portals, sounds, and images: these items should be nominated for featured list, featured portal, featured sounds, and featured picture status, respectively." There are 33 'timeline' articles listed at WP:FL (examples Timeline of Australian television and Timeline of the 2009 Atlantic hurricane season). If you think the list meets the Wikipedia:Featured list criteria and you are willing to address issues mentioned there, it should be nominated at Wikipedia:Featured list candidates. --maclean (talk) 04:16, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Images[edit]

Can someone sort out the images so that they complement the relevant pieces of text. At the moment there are images of the 2011 riots in Greece next to 2008 text.--Editorforthegood (talk) 23:42, 1 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Factual accuracy.[edit]

I see the article is being promoted for GA status, coincidentally I just wanted to put a "factual accuracy disputed" template. Under 2011 it says that S&P downgraded Greece's CR to BBB+ on Dec 16, with a nice reference at the end, all would be well except the news article it's referencing is talking about Dec 16, 2009, Greece's rating has been junk for something like 2 years already. I'm not saying I will check the article myself but I think it needs serious checking. Samarkandas valdnieks (talk) 10:32, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
