I know it looks like we're picking on the Football related FLs, but I first brought forth my concerns back in November and nobody has really attempted to address them, so here we are. There are no citations, and the only reference that is on the page is an almanac from 2004, which wouldn't cover anything from after that. The lead could be a bit longer and the "Teams with no Super Bowl appearances" needs a source. The "Quarterbacks with multiple Super Bowl wins" could also probably go because it seems trivial, and even a tad POVish, because why now also add a "Coaches with multiple Super Bowl wins" section? -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 15:11, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It looks to me like someone interested in this article (meaning someone who may not be reading this page) needs to insert an up-to-date reference for the contents. That would resolve the issue. --Orlady (talk) 20:52, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could you "fix" this list by inserting references to http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/history , http://www.sportingnews.com/archives/almanac/nfl/ , and http://www.sportingnews.com/archives/superbowl/index.html ? --Orlady (talk) 20:58, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The sourcing of the article is much improved since 12 January. --Orlady (talk) 17:57, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Super Bowl history link should be changed to a general ref, the "Quarterbacks with multiple Super Bowl wins" section should be removed, the "Teams with no Super Bowl appearances" section needs sources and the "Super Bowl appearances" and "Super Bowl wins" sections should be merged. Once these are fixed, I'll consider my concerns addressed. -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 18:14, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I already changed the Super Bowl history link to a general ref. --Orlady (talk) 23:04, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Most of the citation problems seem to have been resolved, but there's some note text about geography and stadiums that seems to be unsourced (in this article). Specifically, "Both Los Angeles and Pasadena are in the Greater Los Angeles Area, Pontiac is a suburb of Detroit, and both Tempe and Glendale are suburbs of Phoenix", "Miami Gardens was incorporated as a suburb of Miami in 2003. Prior to that, it was an unincorporated area of Miami-Dade County but the stadium had a Miami address." and "Qualcomm Stadium was originally known as San Diego Stadium and Jack Murphy Stadium. Dolphin Stadium was originally Dolphin Stadium but was quickly changed to Joe Robbie Stadium then briefly Pro Player Park before changing to Pro Player Stadium, then went to Dolphins Stadium and finally back to Dolphin Stadium." --Orlady (talk) 18:45, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's been over 2 weeks since I posted some of my concerns, and I don't think they are being addressed. -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 15:30, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Scorpion, some of your concerns were addressed, but it appears to me that the list creators aren't paying attention. Since you have a clear idea of how it needs to be fixed, it probably would be far less work for you to fix it than to convince someone else to make the changes. --Orlady (talk) 03:46, 9 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
