Hero of Belarus[edit]

This article was FA before, but was farc'ed because of lack of maintainence on my part. After I got some of my other projects out of the way, I started to bring this article back to shape and see now if it is FA worthy, again.

The first problems people had was the citations. When I wrote this in May of 2005, I did not know about the (ref) tags, either because I was still too new or that wasn't started yet. Regardless, I used that system in this cleanup and used 16 references (with some of them repeating). Second, people are having problem with some of the grammar. I have tried to fix that as the best as I could, but grammar has been an issue haunting me a lot on Wikipedia. Any help on that is welcome. Third, at the time when I wrote this, I had some illustrations and I was a noob to copyright law. Now, I know a lot about it and many of the former illustrations have been nuked. Some other concerns, about missing sections, I have included some more information and added a new section dealing with misc. topics.

My main goal for this FAC is not much, except for getting that shiny brown star again on it's talk page. It has been on the main page before, so don't worry about that. However, if there is anything I missed, let me know and I will try and make sure it gets added/subtracted from the article. Thanks again.

Comment. How about turning the Recipients section into a table? Some points for readability could be earned as I think. --Brand спойт 19:43, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I think the flowing prose in that section is preferrable to a table. I can't give my official comment on the article yet. If the nominator's main concern is grammar, then I'll have to give this an in depth read. Just don't want anyone turning prose into a table when it isn't necessary.

  - Honestly, I have not thought about a table, but I am not sure it is going to work. There is going to be a lot of information about the heroes that would be lost if a table is used. While I know that the 2001 and 2006 heroes will be alright, I am afraid the paragraph on Karvat will be lost if it is put in the table format. However, Brand, I thank you for your suggestion. Jay, take your time, there is no hurry. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 05:17, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    - Support. No serious issues to fix in my opinion. --Brand спойт 11:06, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Support After further review, the writing looks good. Excellent work bringing a former featured article up to the current standard. Jay32183 05:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you. For future reference, I originally created this article and brought to FA the first time around, but I let the article go to waste. I am glad it is back up to standards now. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 05:51, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
