[edit] Owen

Since the event is known most for Owen Hart's death, perhaps there should be a "Death of Owen Hart" section. -- Scorpion0422 03:20, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Like Under the event section?--TrUCo9311 03:22, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
Yes, and everything about Owen in the article could be moved there. -- Scorpion0422 03:26, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
Well, idk because the announcement of his death was during "the event", and that may sound sloppy moving everything there.

"if you're confused about what I meant before..this is what I mean..

[edit] GA Review

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


I have failed the the GA nomination, for the reasons listed below.

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:
    There are some minor errors and a few awkward sentences that should be easy to fix with a copy edit.
    B. MoS compliance:
    Passed, although the lead will look different based on some of the changes that need to be made.
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. References to sources:
    B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
    C. No original research:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:
    The article does not sufficiently cover the death of Owen Hart.
    B. Focused:
    Passed, although I think that the article could benefit from a minor trimming of the Background section.
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:
    This, along with 3a, is the reason I have failed the article without placing it on hold. I nearly quick-failed it due to the treatment of Owen Hart's death, but I decided that the NPOV violations were not obvious enough for a quick fail. As stated above, coverage of Hart's death does not receive due weight within the article. His death should probably have its own section (or, perhaps, a subsection within the Event section). Additionally, the controversy over whether or not the event should have been stopped due to Hart's death is not discussed, with the exception of one sentence.
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
    The fair use rationale for the promotional poster does not say if the image is replaceable.
    B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    This article needs to be re-written to properly reflect coverage of Owen Hart's death. When this is done, you may re-nominate the article. Good luck with the re-write!

Is there any chance it can be put on hold for a week to correct the problems. Pro-wrestling articles obviously take very long to get reviewed, and if we can correct the problems in a weeks time, can it be put on hold? King iMatthew 2008 22:35, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

It's already been taken to GA reassessment. I suggest that you work on it while it is there. If the editors participating in the GA reassessment see the improvements, there's a good chance the article will pass GA. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 01:29, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
