GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
In the Junior section, is this right ---> "Schenn apent the 2008–09 season playing with the Wheat Kings"? Is "apent" suppose to be "spent"? Same section, shouldn't "rookie of the year and most popular player" be "Rookie of the Year and Most Popular Player"? Same section, the second "In January of 2009" should be "In the same month" or something like that, that way you avoid adding the same thing later.- Fixed those, rearranged the section with the two mentions of January so they follow each other more closely, and don't use the same phrase
- Check.
- Fixed those, rearranged the section with the two mentions of January so they follow each other more closely, and don't use the same phrase
- B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
In the Minor section, is AAA supposed to be like this ---> 'AAA'. In the Junior section, "21, 2007 against the Saskatoon Blades" commas after dates, if using MDY. In the International section, please link "Whitehorse" to its correspondence article, as at the moment it stands out as a disambiguation. In the Junior section, add "CHL" after Canadian Hockey League, I mean I know what it means, but how 'bout your reader.Throughout the article, you need to have a consistency between "7th overall" and "fifth overall". Either spell out the number (seventh overall) or have the number (5th overall).- Also fixed these.
