[edit] Jane Fonda

I propose this as it is a splendid, interesting, comprehensive, well-referenced and photographed article that meets all the criteria that we seek to convey.BjF 20:23, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Object -- Insufficient lead and inconsistant referencing. Sometimes the article uses the footnote style, sometimes it links directly to another website. Fieari 00:35, 15 August 2006 (UTC) Entire swaths of the article are unreferenced, and there are stubby sections, some consisting of only a single (very short) paragraph. Fieari 02:30, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Object - Skimpy lead, and not enough references. Her father committed suicide when she was 12? Needs a direct in-line reference. Many other such examples through the article. Also agree with Fieari: ref style needs to be consistent. EuroSong talk 00:53, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment - I have hoped to make this a featured article, but I had not nominated it because I knew it needed some improvement. To address objections, I restructured the lead, made the reference style consistent, and referenced the suicide of Fonda's mother. I will work on adding other references when I have more time. I think the article also needs a bit of copyediting and possibly, more information on Fonda's early life. Andrea Parton 16:34, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Object agree with Fieari. Sandy 22:07, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
