Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.

If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)

I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I will use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.

Best of luck! you can also use the {{done}} tag to state when something is addressed. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs)

Please let me know after the review is done, if you were happy with the review! Obviously this is regarding the article's quality, however, I want to be happy and civil to all, so let me know if I have done a good job, regardless of the article's outcome.

Immediate Failures

[edit]
  • It is a long way from meeting any one of the six good article criteria -
  • It contains copyright infringements -
  • It has, or needs, cleanup banners that are unquestionably still valid. These include{{cleanup}}, {{POV}}, {{unreferenced}} or large numbers of {{citation needed}}, {{clarify}}, or similar tags. (See also {{QF-tags}}). -
  • It is not stable due to edit warring on the page. -

Prose

[edit]

Lede

[edit]
  • Should we note that Surrey is in England?
  • Can we have the official title (With Embassy) in the lede somewhere.
  • The infobox should have a year in the event title.
  • Tony David, who has the blood-clotting disorder haemophilia, - whilst I'm sure it's important that he has the disorder, is it really super relevent to him winning the event? If there is a note regarding his disorder being notable, I'm sure we can place that elsewhere in the lede.
  • England captain Martin Adams is a seaofblue. Try England captain Martin Adams
  • A women's world championship was held for the second time. - should be in the first paragraph. See notes later
  • Is a whitewash really suitible for a best-of-3?

General

[edit]
  • The background section should arguably be it's own section. The article writes as if the event is only for men, and there happens to be a women's event. Even if that is how the media projects this, we shouldn't.
  • was seeded first and Martin Adams, the England captain, was seeded second - were they seeded second because they were the England captain?
  • The remaining five places... This bit is after the seedings. It should probably explain this is for the qualification places.
  • Do we need sources after each player name?
  • best-of-11 frames - I don't think you meant this.
  • "to qualify for the BDO championship." - I prefer "took their places".
  • Is it Round 1 or first round?
  • He began with a maximum (180) - do we need to say both?
  • Eighth seed Wayne Mardle went 2–0 ahead of Richardson in set three before the latter equalled at 2–2 . - needs a source, and fix punct
  • Quarter-finals to the final - is a terrible name for a section. If we move the above bit to a background section, you don't need a subsection.
  • three-dart finishing averages - Isn't this a three-dart averages?
