My second GA review. I will place this on hold, as I feel this could be a GA with some work. A nicely-written article. All in all, I'll say that the lede is too long, history section is a bit short and there are some issues to iron out.

I've failed the article due to lack of response from otherwise active nominator. Sandman888 (talk) Latest PR 06:02, 27 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

General
  • Colours. This is not often used in other football articles, I would recommend creating a spin-off article and remove all of the images, save perhaps one or two. Also needs references.
  • References.
    • This is very problematic. Many of the references are poorly formatted and needs date, accessdate, author if possible and publisher. I recommend you use the {cite web} template so you remember all the important information.
    • None of the cited books are being referenced in the article. This is a cause for some concern. Also some of the books seem to have self-translated titles, which is not acceptable. Include original title and add the "|language=French" parameter when using {cite book}.
Stadiums
  • Needs references, entire sections are unreffed.
Current squad
  • The "starting line-up" image caption is unreferenced, and I'll be surprised if you can find a source stating the first XI. Something seems to have gone wrong with the image.
Reserves and academy
  • Unreferenced sections
Managers
  • I would remove the list of managers and keep the wikilink to "List of managers".
Presidents
  • Again, would remove the list, or at least format it properly. Per MosFlag, the French flag should be removed.
Le classique
  • Two first sections are unreferenced.
Rivalries
Honours
Images.
  • Often well-captioned, however there are some problems:
    • File:Coupe des Coupes 1996.jpg is a derivative, copyright belongs to trophy-manufacturer.
    • "Crest" section contains a gallery of non-free images, which is discouraged. One or two images should be enough to illustrate the evolution of the crest.
Lead.
  • Far too long I must say, see WP:LEAD for recommendation on the lead. Remember, lead = summary of article. I would recommend writing a new summary and stuff in the lead.
