List of Detroit Red Wings award winners[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because a) I intend to nominate it for Featured List consideration and b) it is a massive list by my standards with a lot of in's, a lot of out's, and a lot of what have you's. I have done a few FL's recently so I have a general idea of what is required but I still need help with my prose and I am sure there are plenty of little things I have overlooked. Also I have never nominated a list of this size so I am wondering if the prose sections are adequate.

Comment from Rejectwater - many of the images are missing alt texts. I will get to this soon. Rejectwater (talk) 09:19, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Please respond, below these comments, and not interspersed throughout, thanks!
  2. Infobox image caption - interesting info, but leaves me wondering who the guy is in the caption and what year it was that he's holding up the trophy?
  3. Lede/intro is indeed four paragraphs long per WP:LEAD, but lopsided sizes of the individual paragraphs. 1st is two sentences, next is huge, then final two paragraphs are okay size. This could be balanced a bit better for the lede.
  4. Suggest changes to Notes and References for references sect formatting. No need that way for sub sub sects. Just two upper level sects.
  5. Quite well cited throughout.
  6. Image review. I reviewed all images. All check out okay except for two. File:JimmyHowardRW.jpg is missing simple description field info on the page at Wikimedia Commons. File:Red Wings retired Banners.jpg appears to have some tag problems at Wikimedia Commons on its page there, consider fixing the "disclaimer" issue mentioned on that page.
  7. Consider adding maybe one or two more helpful links to See also sect.
  8. Think about adding in-line citations to back up the info given in the image captions. Not necessary. Maybe check prior precedent on similar FLs of this type in sports. Certainly couldn't hurt, just a thought.
  9. Good organizational structure overall.
  10. Please respond, below these comments, and not interspersed throughout, thanks!

Thanks for your quality improvement efforts to Wikipedia on this topic! — Cirt (talk) 00:43, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

2. Updated. Let me know what you think.
3. Updated lead somewhat. The information in the second paragraph is all so similar it makes sense to keep it together.
  • I have expanded and reformatted the lead in three balanced paragraphs. Rejectwater (talk) 01:28, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
4. Done.
5. Thank you.
6. I added a description to the Howard image. The banners image uses an outdated tag. I'm not sure it would be appropriate for me to change it as I am not the copyright holder.
7. Done.
8. My thought was that cites in the captions would be redundant as the information is all taken from the article.
9. Thank you. Regards, Rejectwater (talk) 00:25, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Reply: Looks much better. My only suggestion would be to ask at commons:Commons:Village pump what to do to fix the issues at File:Red Wings retired Banners.jpg. So I went ahead and asked about it, at commons:Commons:Village_pump#File:Red_Wings_retired_Banners.jpg. Good luck, — Cirt (talk) 17:30, 8 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
