After some intensive cleanup work over the past two days I believe this list is close to Featured standard. I think there are one or two issues that need to be addressed, otherwise I think it's fairly good overall. Thanks in advance for your comments NapHit (talk) 01:16, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

• Comment - Fair Use image of Stanley Matthews does not have a Fair Use Rationale for this article -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:35, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
• Comment - I would suggest that you target FA status for this article, rather than FL status. Although the list portion of the article is obviously quite prominent at the moment, I'm sure you could write a substantial history of the award, given a few sources. – PeeJay 21:27, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

hmm when I get back from uni I'll have a look in a few of my books but I'm not convinced I could write a substantial history, and seeing as awards are generally Featured List material I think it should be nominated there. NapHit (talk) 00:45, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

• Comments
  • Cruyff's caption is a complete sentence so give it a full stop.
  • Be consistent with diacritics - Sivori doesn't have one but his article does... check the others.
  • Platini's caption is complete (add a full stop) and doesn't need that comma after his name, in my opinion.
  • And isn't the plural of Ballon d'Or Ballons d'Or rather than Ballon d'Or's ?
  • Not keen on "By country" and "By player" etc as headings - they're rather incomplete in describing the section - you could subsection them under a general "Winners" heading or make them "Winners by country".... etc?
