Talk:Lebanon in the Eurovision Song Contest/GA1

GA Review

edit

Hi, I will be reviewing this article for GA. I think it is a very nice little article that is well referenced. My main question is the following:

  • When you say "broadcaster" as in "Its broadcaster, Télé Liban" do you really mean network? A broadcaster sounds like a person, whereas you are referring to the broadcast company or network. —Mattisse (Talk) 21:30, 5 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
It refers to the network, but regarding Eurovision, we tend to say a country's "broadcaster" I think probably because that is what the sources refer to it as. Grk1011/Stephen (talk) 21:42, 5 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
O.K. I had to read through it a couple of times before I understood it. To a new reader unfamiliar with the subject, Télé Liban can sound like a person, a broadcaster. So I didn't understand it was a company until I pieced it together. I would suggest you think about clarifying that. Otherwise, the article is very interesting and fulfills all the requirements of a GA. —Mattisse (Talk) 21:51, 5 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
OK, I'll look at it and see if there is anything I can do. I'm surprised how long it took to get a review, it didn't seem like a hard or long article to assess lol. Grk1011/Stephen (talk) 21:53, 5 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
I wikilinked to "broadcaster" which describes it. Will that do? Or I could do "broadcasting organization" without links. Grk1011/Stephen (talk) 21:55, 5 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
The wikilink needs to be disambiguated as it goes to a disambig page. Or broadcasting organization would do. —Mattisse (Talk) 21:58, 5 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
I'll do "broadcasting organization", but anyway I thought that the disambig had a quick definition of broadcaster. Grk1011/Stephen (talk) 22:00, 5 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
