This article is about a labor strike and a series of boycotts that affected the Coors Brewing Company in the later half of the 20th century. This article was promoted to Good Article status earlier this year and I believe it meets the criteria for Featured Article status. Thanks, JJonahJackalope (talk) 16:11, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Image review

  • Hey, thanks for the review. I've adjusted the px sizes and added alt text for all of the images. I replaced the image of Harvey Milk with another that seems to have no issue with licensing and moved that image to the left side of the article. -JJonahJackalope (talk) 01:20, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Quick comment There needs to be a place (city/country) in the first few sentences. Also, it's not clear what purpose ref [1] against the article title is supposed to serve?—indopug (talk) 11:05, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • I just added a location in the first sentence, let me know if the phrasing of it should be altered at all. As for ref [1], it was somewhat unclear to me exactly how to title the article, as many sources did not identify the activities against Coors by a standard name, while ref [1] uses the article title when describing the event. If I should make any changes to this, or if the reference is unnecessary, please let me know. -JJonahJackalope (talk) 11:22, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I think it's unnecessary. "Coors strike and boycott" seems an obvious and non-controversial title.—indopug (talk) 16:25, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, per discussion here I have removed ref [1]. -JJonahJackalope (talk) 11:59, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Coord note -- Hi, this nom isn't attracting the level of attention we really need to see having been open almost three weeks so we're a very long way from consensus to promote. I'm therefore going to archive it. Given the lack of comprehensive reviews, you can re-nominate without waiting the usual two weeks, but I'd strongly suggest trying peer review first to try getting some more eyes on it before a new FAC nom. You'd also be eligible for the FAC mentoring scheme if you'd like to consider that. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 08:11, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
