Reviewer: Wizardman Operation Big Bear 04:15, 16 June 2010 (UTC) After reviewing this article, I notice the following issues:Reply

  • The article has very few citations. Ideally at least one cite per paragraph would be needed, so for a city that would be a pretty sizeable amount, certainly more than 10.
  • Along with the above, the citation needed tag needs to be addressed.
  • There needs to be better overall structure. Right now there's a lot of one and two sentence paragraphs that needed to be meshed together.
  • I'm noticing some sentence fragments, i.e. "Minot Vistas of the North Dakota American Legion Baseball League" <-- for that matter, the sports note can just be combined with the recreation section.
  • "Minot It is almost entirely land; the Souris River, its oxbow lakes, and a few creeks take up just 0.14% of the city's total landmass." Remove the It.

It's a very solid start to the article so far, and I would consider it deserving of B-class, which it's at now. It needs much more work before becoming a GA though, so for now I have to fail it. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 04:15, 16 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Well, I've begun work on most of that. I also have expanded the section with the Minot Vistas fragment Iamcool234 17:51, 16 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
