Carrie Jones (footballer)
- ... that footballer Carrie Jones made her international debut for Wales despite being too young to play for her club side? Source: BBC Sport The Guardian
- Reviewed: Kazuo Wada
Created by KTC (talk) and Kosack (talk). Nominated by Kosack (talk) at 19:33, 1 September 2019 (UTC).
Article is new enough (created on 29 August). Long enough (1711 characters). Hook is long enough, verifiable, interesting.
In terms of issues, her birth date is uncited in the article, is there a ref for this? In the early life section, I would remove the word parents as it's redundant. In the club career section, the After joining her first youth side... makes no grammatical sense. The "age of 15 years and 359 days" is uncited. I would remove the "play style" section as it's just one person's comments so POV and this is usually what is established when a player's career is established, not at the start of their career. Also QPQ needed. Cowlibob (talk) 15:37, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
- @Cowlibob: Thanks for the review, I've implemented most of the changes you listed above. In regards to the style of play section, every quote is a POV but what makes it relevant is when it's attributed to a knowledgeable source. Harries has won over 50 caps for Wales and works as a pundit so her opinion is a mark above most. I don't think there's any sort of experience level required for a style of play section either, if the information is there I'm not sure why we wouldn't include it simply because the player is young. I've added in my QPQ for this as well. Kosack (talk) 18:22, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
