GA Review[edit]

Any comments are welcome during the review LegoKontribsTalkM 05:24, 19 June 2008 (UTC) GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria[reply]

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:
    B. MoS compliance:
    Per WP:ENGVAR the article should be in either British English or American English. I would recommend British English, as the NHL was mostly in Canada at the time.
Checked, and now passing
  1. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. References to sources:
    B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
    C. No original research:
  2. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:
    Covers Canadian teams as well as American teams evenly.
    B. Focused:
  3. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:
  4. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:
    History looks fine
  5. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
    B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
  6. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    On Hold
Passed

I've checked for consistency in dialect, and by my eye, it appears to consistently use Canadian English. i.e.: words like colour, honour, defence and offence are spelled using Brtish style, and words like "regularize" are spelled with the -ize suffix rather than -ise. These are both consistent with Canadian spellings. Are there any specific words or passages you are concerned with? Thanks! Resolute 14:59, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
