[edit] Stanley Cup
Failed previous FAC, due to copyediting/style concerns. (Big thank yous to User:Awadewit for the copyedting and for User:SandyGeorgia for the MoS assesement). All have been addressed. I feel this exemplifies some of Wikipedia's best work. All comments/concerns will be addressed. Thanks, Maxim(talk) (contributions) 22:52, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

- Some comments. I've done a copyedit on the intro and first section. Minor issues:
-
- Is there a better way to phrase "most coveted" in the intro sentence?
- Is "official du jour redundant?
Citation #7 doesn't refer to the Generals anywhere.Sorry, made a mistake here -Wafulz 00:41, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support. There are some minor issues (overlinking comes to mind), but the article is written well enough.-Wafulz 19:30, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- I think there should be something about the competition that this cup it awarded for. Also it's best to avoid see also sections if you can. Buc 09:07, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

- Since when is it best to avoid see also sections? They add useful links to the articles. Most featured articles have them--Phoenix-wiki (talk ยท contribs) 13:47, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
