[edit] Tom Brady

there has been talk of this nomination, so I am going to step up and nominate it.

  • Refer to Peer Review/Strongest Object. As a major contributor/editor to this article, I've been lazy, I know. I let the peer review suggestions slide for two months while working on other projects :(. It's important that we do what the peer review says before going to FAC. Hence my vote. — Deckiller 22:11, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Uhhhh Strong Object one of the better NFL Bios I agree, but it should be send to peer review, image problems, the magazine cover is a copyvio and the other is a AP image. the Other information section is basiclly another name for a trivia section, that should be removed, list need to be converted to prose, writing is rather poor and some unrefrenced POV claims lay though out the article especially in the Debate section.

    • I agree. Sometime in the near future I need to enhance the prose, which blinds me in some spots (not literally :) ). That's my fault for letting a lot of new editors taint the prose with minor details and POV claims and awkward wording. A "Good Article", but nowhere even near "Featured Article" status. Unfortunately, I've been pressured back into playing an MMORPG, so my Wikitime is extremely short nowadays :(. — Deckiller 16:12, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks to you. I nominated this article to try and get someone on to this. Im involved in to many discussions to take care of the article, and I would most likely end up changing it into a bias article

  • Object This isn't ready, and there is still some material to work with. At this point it's little more than a page that recalls his NFL seasons. More information needs to be included on his personal life for the article to be truly comprehensive. Also the Other Information section (which is a points list) needs to be converted to prose (something à la Tom Brady in Popular Culture) and needs to be included. The Brian Close article is i think the best FA example of a sportsperson's biography on wikipedia. Use it as a template. Thethinredline 08:44, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
