Wikipedia:Peer review/List of food days/archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because it has recently been significantly enhanced, and as prep for a possible WP:Featured Lists candidate.

Comments from MPJ

[edit]

My weakness is grammar, but my strength is lists and tables and formatting etc. so I took the table through the wringer to see what I could come up with

Comments

  • First thing the FL review will catch on to is the comment this list is incomplete and will probably not be able to get past this.
  • What is the rule for inclusion on the list? I mean everything I read about the "Hummus Day" for example does not indicate it's any kind of "official" day.
  • None of the tables are sortable, I think it would be appropriate to sort on at least some of the columns.
  • For FL each list entry needs to have reliable sources listed.
  • Tables are inconsistent - some have images, some don't, some have notes on origin etc, others do not
  • The tables are inconsistent in their inclusion of the name of the day in the local languages, some do, some don't.
  • With this being basically a "list of lists" I wish all tables were the same width etc. so they look consistent as you scroll down the list.
  • I get that the US list is longer, but why is that the only one broken down by month? Be consistent if it's going to have a hope of being a Featured List.
  • Note: One entry actually states "Hamburger Day was May 28, 2015!" so there are discrepancies in the list.

Good luck with this, there is a ton of work getting this to FL from what I can see.  MPJ-US  22:00, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oh side note - Use the "External link" in the tool box. There are some that need to be addressed, dead and need registration especially. Also I believe the images used all need "alt text" to describe them?  MPJ-US  22:14, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
