List of New York Giants head coaches[edit]

Another well done list, nicely referenced, info, accurate. - Milks F'avorite Cookie 22:56, 31 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from The Rambling Man (talk · contribs)
  • Avoid bold links in the lead per WP:LEAD#Bold title
  • Avoid manually resizing thumbs per WP:MOS#Images - the lead image should use upright to modify its size.
  • "have won seven, including three of the four Super Bowls in which they have played." should be cited.
  • Ref [10] cites a number of the awards but many others aren't cited.

Otherwise no real complaints from me! The Rambling Man (talk) 06:55, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 Done - Milk's favorite Cookie 16:28, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

  • Don't link the bold title, per WP:LEAD
  • "and have played for eighteen NFL Championships and have won seven..." too many "and have"s
  • Wikilink NFL championships in the first paragraph, and drop it in the second
  • "Steve Owen is the all-time leader in games coached and wins" is a little clunky
  • Those two picture next to the table are very long. If you crop them to head shots, it will allow more to be added, assuming there are free pictures available.

Otherwise, nice list -- ṃ•α•Ł•ṭ•ʰ•Ə•Щ• @ 06:59, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 Done with everything above. There are also know other free use images (I think), so cropping would be useless. Thanks, - Milk's favorite Cookie 01:30, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not sure about Benny Friedman being classed as a hall of famer since he's in there as a player. Buc (talk) 15:07, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Concerns taken care of, and it meets the criteria.
    • Sorry, per WP:COLORS#Using colours in articles, "Ensure that colour is not the only way used to convey important information. Especially, do not use coloured text unless its status is also indicated using another method such as italic emphasis or footnote labels. Otherwise blind users or readers accessing Wikipedia through a printout or device without a colour screen will not receive that information." I'll support once again when the shaded cells have some sort of text-identifier inlcuded, such as astericks, daggers or carets. -- ṃ•α•Ł•ṭ•ʰ•Ə•Щ• @ 05:16, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I don't think the colors are a major problem. Very well-done list. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 20:07, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
