Wikipedia:Peer review/Auburn High School/archive1
I'd like to get this article up to FA quality, so it needs a good rigorous scrubbing to get the blemishes out. Particularly, I'd like comments concerning any deviations from the Manual of Style, any NPOV issues, any comprehensiveness/summary style concerns, and any parts that are poorly worded or otherwise need copyediting. Previous discussion on this article, including comments during the article's GA nomination, are on the article's talk page. -- Lissoy 00:48, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
Auto review
[edit]The following suggestions were generated by a semi-automatic javascript program, and might not be applicable for the article in question.
- Per Wikipedia:Context and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates), months and days of the week generally should not be linked. Years, decades, and centuries can be linked if they provide context for the article.[?] I would unlink those single years, but perhaps leave the decades.
- Per Wikipedia:What is a featured article?, Images should have concise captions.[?]
- Avoid including galleries in articles, as per Wikipedia:Galleries. Common solutions to this problem include moving the gallery to wikicommons or integrating images with the text.
- Per WP:WIAFA, this article's table of contents (ToC) may be too long- consider shrinking it down by merging short sections or using a proper system of daughter pages as per Wikipedia:Summary style.[?]
- As done in WP:FOOTNOTE, footnotes usually are located right after a punctuation mark (as recommended by the CMS, but not mandatory), such that there is no space in between. For example, the sun is larger than the moon [2]. is usually written as the sun is larger than the moon.[2][?]
- Please ensure that the article has gone through a thorough copyediting so that it exemplifies some of Wikipedia's best work. See also User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 1a.[?]

- I've made some of the requested changes:
- Single years are all unlinked, decades remain linked.
- All images have concise captions except for the school logo in the infobox, which seems to be standard in FA's.
- I have replaced the gallery with a table of images, as is used in side-by-side images in the FA El Greco.
- ToC has been condensed from 34 lines to 23 lines.
- All spaces between punctuation and footnotes have been removed.
- Would you suggest any further changes to meet the autopeer suggestions? I'd welcome any other comments on what needs to be improved in this article to reach FACR. Thanks! -- Lissoy 21:00, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
