[edit] Comments from FAC review

  • Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Bulk_carrier/archive1
  • General concern raised: too many citations, needs a thorough copy-edit, and "subprofessional formatting."
  • "This is partly due to new regulations coming into effect which put greater constraints on the building of larger vessels" - can you elaborate (a sentence or two) on these regulations
    • Doing... Trying to put my finger on which regs apply
  • "Bulkers", as a nickname, should be in quotes on its first appearance.
    • Question. Is there a MOS item for this?
  • The paragraph "Once the ship has discharged its cargo, the crew begins..." should be joined with the previous
    • Question. I just plain disagree with this.

  • Per Wikipedia:Context and Wikipedia:Build the web, years with full dates should be linked; for example, if January 15, 2006 appeared in the article, link it as January 15, 2006.[?]
    • Question. I think these are all in ref-tags.
  • This article may need to undergo summary style, where a series of appropriate subpages are used. For example, if the article is United States, then an appropriate subpage would be History of the United States, such that a summary of the subpage exists on the mother article, while the subpage goes into more detail.[?]
    • Question. Inclined to disagree.
  • Please make the spelling of English words consistent with either American or British spelling, depending upon the subject of the article. Examples include: meter (A) (British: metre), recognize (A) (British: recognise), categorize (A) (British: categorise), ization (A) (British: isation), isation (B) (American: ization), analyse (B) (American: analyze), traveled (A) (British: travelled).
    • Question. I don't see any problems so far - am I thinking in Canadian?
  • Please ensure that the article has gone through a thorough copyediting so that it exemplifies some of Wikipedia's best work. See also User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 1a.[?]
