Too Long[edit]

I know the season was great. It was fun having Super Bowl season and all that. However, isn't this article a bit too long? And for the sake of consistency, I doubt the past seasons can be written in a similar fashion as this one. KyuuA4 19:51, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Still think it's too long? I created a new page for the game summaries. RMelon 20:26, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Chicago Bears Featured Article[edit]

Chicago Bears was featured article of the day today, and I think this article has promise. So far it meets most criteria for good article status, and I think one day it could be a featured article. Optimistic because of the FA, I nominated the article for peer review today, and I hope that someday it will reach at least Good article status. What do you guys think? RMelon 21:14, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's going to be a lot of work, check out the comments I left on the PR page. I believe all articles have the potential to someday reach GA or FA status. The Brian Urlacher, Rex Grossman, and Devin Hester articles were once in shabby shape, but improved as time progressed. Hopefully, the same will happen to this article. Let's hope it doesn't suffer the same faith as the 2005 Indianapolis Colts article. :-p --  ShadowJester07  ►Talk  21:28, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Verifying things like weather, attendance, score summary, etc.[edit]

I think that people already know this, but I'm throwing it out there in case you don't. If you want verification of things like weather, attendance, and score summaries, go to this page, click on the game you want, then click "gamebook" in the heading. It links to a PDF with all the information you could possibly want about any NFL game ever. I cited these like crazy for the 2006 Green Bay Packers season, and I plan on doing it in the future. It's a nice easy way to take care of citing about 12 facts at once. –King Bee (τγ) 15:43, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Citing Stuff[edit]

In order to keep things consistent, do you think it would be all right to cite references like this, <ref>Publisher.com, [www.chicagobears.com/story/madeuplink Title], Retrieved on DD, MM, 20YY</ref>? The format I use is somewhat easier the the regular "citeweb" method, and was good enough to get the Rex Grossman article to GA-status. Any thoughts? Oh yeah, here are some helpful sources,

Hope That Helps! --  ShadowJester07  ►Talk  23:43, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. I'm sure we'll get to it eventually. RMelon 16:02, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good Article[edit]

Anyone think this article is ready to be nominated as a good article? RMelon 20:29, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Refs need work, See 2007 Chicago Bears. The lead could be bigger, and the unfree images need some fair use rationales. That's about it. We could get it up to GA status quality within a week or two --  ShadowJester07  ►Talk  20:40, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I made the lead too long now, didn't I? Suggestions? RMelon 14:20, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:BearsOrange.png[edit]
