Boeing 717[edit]


A few months ago I performed some edits to this article, fixing dead links and adding a number of citations to unsourced content. I've listed this article for peer review because I want to know what can be done to this article to bring this to GA status.

  • Main
    • Per WP:LEADLENGTH, I feel the lead could be expanded at maybe at the most, twice its current size. Make sure you try to get something of all the major sections in there.
    • For V's sake, cite 12 goes to Airclaims Jet Programs 1995: could this citation be more complete? issue? year? date? page? isbn (if any)? etc
    • I think section "Background" would be more understandable if presented in list; per my interpretation of WP:EMBED, this could make a children list. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 18:30, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Cosmetic/MOS-related
    • Ideally, WP:IMGLOC says we should place images left-right, across the article body and alternating. The image subject should "face" the text. Text sandwiched between images on both sides are discouraged. I'm seeing the entire first three subsections without images while it gets cramped with them towards the end. Consider redistributing them.
    • Why not try putting attractive captions to draw readers to the relevant text? See WP:CAP points 3, 4, 5 under "Some criteria" for tips. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 18:30, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ugog Nizdast thanks for your comments and suggestions, looking at the article again I think it needs quite a bit of work. In particular, I currently do not have access to the Airclaims Jet Programs 1995 source, which means I am unable to verify the text. sst(conjugate) 15:07, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
