Prostitution in Europe

A giant list that has tons of references and is well done.—Preceding unsigned comment added by LukeTheSpook (talk • contribs) August 4, 2008

• Oppose
  • Lead is non-existant. There's even a tag that states it.
  • Rather than creating 42 one-sentence sections, a table should be created with some additional columns.
  • References should be cited properly. See, {{cite web}} for examples.

I recommend withdrawing this nomination.--Crzycheetah 22:23, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

• Speedy close, this fails all FL criteria. --Golbez (talk) 23:17, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Comments

• Further to the three provided by Crzycheetah, WP:CS says references should be placed after punctuation
• Sentences such as "Prostitution in the United Kingdom is not formally illegal, but several activities surrounding it are outlawed." do not help the reader at all.
• The prose in each section needs major work. Withdraw. Matthew Edwards (talk • contribs • email) 00:17, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
• Speedy close - per above. Not feasible to improve this sufficiently barring herculean efforts. sephiroth bcr ^(converse) 03:05, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
