NASCAR edit

I would like this article to be as good as possible so that it can be nominated for a featured article at some point. Wikipedianinthehouse 23:28, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • The most important thing is to get a references section. Several items will also need footnotes, such as the statistics in the Fan Demographics section. Several sections, such as NEXTEL Cup, Historic moments, and Video games, are too short, and should either be expanded or merged into others. The article as a whole also has a somewhat overly positive tone. More images would also be good, though it is obviously difficult to obtain good ones. - SimonP 01:49, 17 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • One recommendation for images - especially for public domain ones - is to check the U.S. military web sites. All of the branches sponsor a NASCAR team in one capacity or another and all of them have public domain photos from races on their sites (this trick also worked for college football). There are also some images in varying states of "fair use" on individual driver articles. RADICALBENDER 22:15, 19 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
