List of Stratocaster players[edit]

O.K, I have compleatly renovated this list, and I still provide it loving care :). I do know that there should be a citation for every entry, but once that is done (I will work on finding some books) then I want to know if this has a shot for WP:FL. So besides the citations what should be done. Another thing to note that the list is created similar to the style of List of Telecaster players which is also a featured article. Also every section has a non-fair use image of a Strat player. Thanks and review is greatly appreciated. Arjun 19:20, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It looks very good to me, a good list (well modelled on the Telecaster one) with some nice free use images. Aside from the citations, I can't see anything else to do. Good job. Trebor 23:14, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, great work, but some editors might criticize the lead section, so you maybe want to expand it a little. In the next days I'll try to help with sources. Cheers. No-Bullet (TalkContribs) 23:33, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Some thoughts:
  • No need for the subsections; the list isn't that long after all, and the divisions are rather arbitrary.
  • What does "who have made notable use" mean? Same thing with the last sentence of the lead (The musicians listed here...). This gets really tough to judge. Why not just go with WP:V and say that anyone who has used the guitar and has been documented in a reliable source gets added? Presumably, the majority of such people will have articles (since they are being mentioned in a reliable source), so there shouldn't be a problem there.
  • Once you cut out the fluff (all the stuff in my previous point that shouldn't even be mentioned), there's not much of a lead. Why is this list worth looking at? What makes the Fender Stratocaster so important?
Hope this helps. --Spangineerws (háblame) 05:52, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Okay thanks, the reason why it looks so small right now is because we have just taken out all the guitarists without citations. Arjun 14:31, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
