This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I've run out of ideas of what I can do to improve it (and it's only a C-level article yet). The remaining two things I've thought of, pictures and a notable players section are somewhat on hold (the former because I don't live on the same continent as Ashington, though I may get some away pictures when they visit Whitley Bay in November, the latter because there's a discussion about what notable players are at this level). I assume I'm missing things to work on, so I appreciate all the help and suggestions you can offer. I should note that researching Ashington is slightly more difficult than say, Newcastle United; there's not the internet information out there, and I don't have access to the correct newspaper archives in Canada.

- You could try a Rivalries section, although they're hard to cite. Also, the history is recentist in its final few paragraphs. Finally, include a link to Category:Ashington A.F.C. players somewhere, possibly under the current squad section or in its own section entitled Notable former players and the like. Thanks. —Half Price 13:20, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
- An image of the ground would be good. There are very few images on the Geograph project of the area so nothing available there. You could try one of the users in Category:Wikipedians in Northumberland to see if they could take one, looks like 2 of them are active. Keith D (talk) 17:25, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
- I've been talking with a Non-League Football project member near the Whitley Bay stadium in Newcastle, but Ashington is, alas, quite a ways north. I've also been trying to get Ashington A.F.C. forum frequenters to release a photo under CC with no success of yet. - Wmcduff (talk) 18:27, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
- Comments from Jappalang
- There are a few scattered points in the article that are uncited.
- What is the point of those globe graphics among the text in the Stadium section?
- External links should not be inline (Supporters section). Why must there be a link to this forum? This project is not meant to be a promoter of fansites or discussion groups. See Wikipedia:External links.
- What makes www.donmouth.co.uk (a personal homepage), www.rsssf.com (a personal homepage made for a newsgroup), www.nonleaguetables.co.uk, and www.nufc.com (a totally unofficial production by a totally unofficial website) reliable sources? Please refer to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2008-06-26/Dispatches and Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2008-07-28/Dispatches on how reliable sources are judged?
- It is a violation of WP:MOSFLAG not to name the country on the first use of its flag; furthermore, the use of a single flag is pointless.
- File:AshingtonAFC1898.jpg: Wikipedia is reliant on US copyright law (see WP:IUP). The tag used here implies the image was first published (not just created) before 1923. In which publication was this photograph made available to the public? If you are going by age, first the work has to be unpublished, then who is the author? If unknown, the image is protected for 120 years since creation.[1] None of these conditions are fulfilled.
It is understandable that it would be hard pressed to find sources to cover a small club, but that would be no excuse not to follow the guidelines and policies of the project. Jappalang (talk) 03:00, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
