Scott Special[edit]

Seeking further areas for improvement on the way to WP:FAC. I've got a few other references to go through in my personal library, but I'd like to hear what other editors think could/should be added as well. Slambo (Speak) 13:16, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Quick comment: How about starting by addressing your own pending task for it? Circeus 02:14, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I am currently researching the items that are listed on the todolist. I'd like to know what others think should also be included. Slambo (Speak) 10:43, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • See suggestions at User:AndyZ/Suggestions.
    • Much of what is mentioned there is already incorporated into the text of the article. After writing four other featured articles myself, I'm familiar with the process. If there's something more specific, like what you mention below, please point it out so we can correct any problems. Slambo (Speak) 13:49, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Images with fair use tags need fair use rationales - please see WP:FUC. Several images are missing fair use rationales.
    • The two fair use images now have rationales listed on the image description pages. The other three images are public domain. Slambo (Speak) 13:49, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Per WP:MOSNUM, at Units of measurement, numbers with SI units of measure should have conversions in US customary units and vice versa. These conversions should keep to similar values of precision. For example, "the Moon is 380,000 kilometres (240,000 mi) from Earth". Note that the converted unit of measure uses a standard abbreviation, while the source unit is spelled out in the text. (note that weights should be converted also)
    • Only one measurement was missing a metric conversion; done. Slambo (Speak) 13:49, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please reorder/rename the last few sections to follow guidelines at WP:GTL.

    • Thanks for the feedback. Do you have any suggestions on the content of the article versus the context? Slambo (Speak) 13:49, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
