[edit] USS Missouri (BB-63)

This artilce has been flagged for having "citation issues", I have been working on improving it for about two weeks now. I have made a monumental effort to bring this article back up to what is now considered Featured Status, I am now looking for any additional input from the group members as to what can be done to make it better.

[edit] Kirill Lokshin

The improvements are quite impressive; the previous lack of inline citations seems to be basically resolved, so this appears to be up to par with more modern FAs. A few other suggestions, though:

  • The lead section seems quite short for an article of this length; I'd consider expanding it a bit.
  • The "See also" section should be eliminated, if possible; I'm fairly sure most, if not all, of the things there are already linked within the text. The last few links there should be under "External links", in any case.
  • The "Missouri in Fiction" section is basically a trivia list; per WP:MILHIST#Popular culture, it ought to have something done to it (although I'm not entirely sure what).
  • The "See USS Missouri for other ships of the same name." blurb should really be in a {{dablink}} at the top of the article, rather than at the bottom.

Overall, though, this looks great! Kirill Lokshin 16:30, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

All noted and carried out. TomStar81 (Talk) 20:38, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sandy

Please order sections to conform with WP:LAYOUT, and make section headings conform to WP:MOS and WP:MSH. Sandy (Talk) 20:03, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

I have made some changes based on the links you gave. Is this better? TomStar81 (Talk) 00:48, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
