I've listed this article for peer review because I would like to know how to improve the list further. Thanks, NapHit (talk) 23:30, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Brianboulton comments: There isn't a lot of material here, but you should make the most of all relevant facts, and include them. For example:

• In the lead you need to explain clearly what "Serie A" means, in terms of Italian Association Football. I belieive it is the Italian top flight, the equivalent of the British Premiership, but this needs to be made clear in your defining first sentences.
• Also state in the lead when the award started. If you can find any information relevant to its prehistory, e.g. on whose initiative the award was introduced, whether there was a previous method of recognising young talent, etc. that would be good.
• You should also give details of the procedure whereby the award is decided. Is it by votes? If so, what is the electorate? Are details available of voting figures so that we can see if any of the years were closely contested?
• Were any of the awards considered controversial, causing adverse reactions in the sporting press?

There may not be information available on some of these points, but it's worth looking, in order to expand the article. One other point I noticed in the list itself: other footballer award lists give the playing position of the award winner, and I think yours should too.

That's really all I can say. I hope you find these points helpful. Brianboulton (talk) 11:09, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Not much to say really beyond what Brianboulton has already picked up. One point, though - I realise the lead image is of the only multi-time winner, but it's really a terrible picture. Would it be worth putting a different picture there instead....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:59, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

• Might be better to use {{lang-it}} for formatting the Italian award name (and it's spelt wrong)
• Perhaps explain what the Associazione Italiana Calciatori is rather than just translating the words
