Wikipedia:Peer review/Google/archive1

Google[edit]

I think this article is getting very close to featured status, as it's very well organized and overall very complete. It has undergone two featured article nominations; the first, rejected for lack of citations, which has been fixed. The second time, for several reasons, many of which have been addressed. Before renominating for featured status again, I'd like to submit this for peer review to see what other editors think about how this article meets the featured article criteria. Thanks!

Just a couple of small points for starters.

Firstly, The lead seems rather long - whilst the article is too, I feel the lead would benefit from a more concise style.
Also, I remember finding recently a website that has past caches of web pages, and trawling through the various incarnations of Google. It might be nice to link to that from the caption of the image 'Google in 1998'.

I've rephrased the lead a bit to hopefully be a better summary of the article. Let me know how it looks. Also, the site you refer to is the internet archive, which does have some historical archives of what google looked like in the past. Though most of the Google logos on that site appear to be blacked out in my browser - the very early ones are still visible. Dr. Cash 18:18, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
