Talk:David Hammond

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

David Hammond was a good article, but it has been removed from the list. There are suggestions below for improving the article to meet the good article criteria. Once these are addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.

Delisted version: Error: invalid time

To-do list for David Hammond:
  • free use image
  • No references to books about him/by him
  • I think the article could use a Filmography of some kind
  • some expansion of the teaching/directing section. For instance, it mentions a number of the plays he worked on, but only in one sentence. Most of those sentences equate to something like "Hammond worked as the director of X." And then its off to the next similar sentence about some other project. It would be good to expand each of those sentences into at least a few more, if not a full paragraph detailing his involvement, the play itself, it's reception, his approach, and stuff like that.
  • It still needs a thorough copy edit. Taking one sentence as an example, Hammonds theatrical works were a staple of the North Carolina theatre scene for over a decade, and continues to teach at New York Universitys graduate acting program and recently at Guilford College. is missing two apostrophes and is garbled by the change of subject between the two clauses without the second subject being stated.

Can I please have a few minutes to start filling in the article? Judgesurreal777 22:28, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Sure, not a problem.  :-) Sorry about jumping the gun, but prior to the info about the awards and appropriate references, looked rather nn. Leuko 22:39, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fail GA

Hi I failed this article on 01:20, 11 July 2007 (UTC) for these reasons:

  1. The opening part is not two paragraphs
  2. The article seems to be sloppily written and not wikified

Other than that the article seems fine do those suggestions and the article will be promoted to GA. Address any questions to me on my talk page.
