List of Dundee United F.C. managers[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I have recently completed the statistics in the table, written supporting prose and added references, and would like to know if there is anything else that can be done to improve it before nominating it as a featured list. Thanks, Jellyman (talk) 08:44, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Csisc[edit]

I thank you for your works about the managers of FC Dundee United... The work is excellent and I think that the work can be a featured list in the coming years... However, there are some points to clarify...

  • Managerial History: The managerial history of the FC Dundee United is just a series of achievement citations. There are minor information about Managerial Crisis of the exceptional FC Dundee United... As you know, all clubs suffered from crisis in the period of the famous crisis of 1929... There are minor information about this... You have to proliferate this part and involve more information and quotes about managers... For quotes, you can consult some media reports about the club...
  • Managerial Achievements: Managerial Achievements are not just sportive ones... You have to mention if the managers had succeeded to find new and important sponsors for the team... You have to mention if the managers had succeeded to give more recognition to this important team... You can even indicate the most influencing ones in the listed standings... I think that this will ameliorate the final output of the work and let it more eligible to get FA Status...

I think that these information are efficient to ameliorate more the work. However, if you have any questions to ask, feel free to answer me here.

Yours Sincerely,

Comments from MPJ[edit]

My weakness is grammar, but my strength is lists and tables and formatting etc. so I took the table through the wringer to see what I could come up with

  • Yugoslavia sorts by "Serbia", which is the article name not the displayed name - need to use the "{{sort|Yugoslavia|" functionality to fix that.
  • Dates sort is off, anything with a day sorts first, then those with month alphabetically, it should sort chronologically at all times oldest-to-youngest or youngest-to-oldest
  • The "P" column does not sort correctly. it sorts 1, 12, 122, 2, 20 etc.
  • This may just be my browser but once I sort W or D or something twice the sorting is stuck? that may not be something you can fix but it may be due to the 2 colspan sections?
  • Speaking of the two colspans - the should sort the same way across the board, to me as "less than zero".
  • You have not defined the last field on the line for Willie Macfayden, in IE it looks off and could do with the non-breaking space character.

If this is going to be a Featured List at some point these need to be addressed. If you run into problems I can work with you to fix them.  MPJ-US  21:15, 29 July 2015 (UTC) Side note - Image "alt text" should not just be the same as the caption - the Alt text is for those that have pictures turned off or have vision issues and use aids to read articles. I believe they're supposed to describe the images?  MPJ-US  22:06, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your comments! Yeah, I'm afraid tables and stuff isn't particularly my strong point, but I'll have a go at fixing things... Jellyman (talk) 00:04, 10 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
