Talk:KC Stadium/Comments

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

.

1. The part about SMC & take over appears in lead but not in article body. May be move sentence to body of article and flesh out a bit. I actually removed the sentence for now; it's easy enough to source and put back. I'll look at other stadium articles and see how relevant/encyclopedic sections on ownership of stadium operating companies is.  Doonhamer | Banter  14:59, 7 August 2007 (UTC) Y Done Doesn't seem to add anything to the article.  Doonhamer | Banter  16:21, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
2. Details of construction would be a useful section (e.g. who built) Y Done Addressed in the History section.  Doonhamer | Banter  16:21, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
3. Average attendances - a similar list for Hull FC would balance article Y Done
4. Some interior photographs would be good. I've written to the stadium to see what sort of permission/attribution is needed for pictures of the interior of the stadium. I anticipate a response by Monday, 13 August.  Doonhamer | Banter  22:12, 11 August 2007 (UTC) No response from the stadium. Still researching.  Doonhamer | Banter  16:21, 19 August 2007 (UTC) Y Done A mate of mine took a few photos of the stadium interior before a match today and sent them on; loaded one to the Commons and added it to the article.  Doonhamer | Banter  20:34, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

May be worth a try for GA review Keith D 21:17, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
