Wikipedia:Peer review/List of Bristol Rovers F.C. managers/archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I've been working to get this article up to featured list status, and I'd appreciate any feedback on what work needs to be done to acheive this.

Many thanks. — Gasheadsteve Talk to me 18:56, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just a few points......

  • The first sentence doesn't seem to be gramatically correct, maybe try "This is a list of Bristol Rovers F.C. managers since the club appointed its first full-time manager in 1899, along with...."
  • In both that sentence and the last sentence of the lead, the club should be treated as a singular noun ie "the club has...." rather than "the club have...."
  • Was Prince-Cox a captain as in an army captain? If so, maybe link the word "Captain" to an appropriate article, or alternatively include it within the wikilink of his name, as currently it looks (to me at any rate) like it's saying that he was the team's captain but with incorrect capitalisation of the word "captain"....
    • I've removed the word 'captain' from the article. He is usually referred to as Captain Prince-Cox, but I've never seen any explaination to whether this is Army, Navy, or even a self-bestowed title, which wouldn't surprise me as he seems to have been quite a colourful character! — Gasheadsteve Talk to me 08:04, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I concur that the redlinks need to be filled, even if only with stubs
  • "More success followed in the 1952-53 season when Bristol Rovers longest serving post-war manager" - missing apostrophe on Rovers'
  • I'd also suggest reducing the size of the image, as at the current size the quality is terrible

Hope this helps, anyway......... ChrisTheDude 07:37, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
