[edit] Infobox

Why don't you have one? --andreasegde 21:48, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

The infobox was one of the last things I thought of when the article was expanded by me. If you want to include one, you are welcome to. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 21:50, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
I have moved the recording to the infobox and have split some long paragraphs. --andreasegde 09:29, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
That's fine. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 13:05, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA Review

I removed this sentence:

Unfortunately, the anthem was booed at by Scottish fans at Hampden Park in 2007.[1][2]


Because it seemed out of place and a little random. I'm not sure where in the article it could go.

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

Additional notes:

I'd like a little more about the soviet anthem if this is going to FA. It might be good to explicitly reference the copyright-free status of the anthem's translation (It could come back to bite you if you don't.) However, on the whole, a good, well-written article. Passed. Adam Cuerden talk 12:10, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

That sentence you removed had nothing important; it was outside of Lithuania and anthems are booed all of the time. I am trying to find more about the Soviet anthem, but I been assured by Lithuanian editors that all information was added. As for adding that template, hmm...that seems to be a first. But glad you liked it. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 18:45, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
Well, not that TEMPLATE, obviously. Just hidden text or a footnote making it clear that it's out of copyright and why. That template, as one of the official commons statements regarding copyright, is useful to summarise the legal position.
As for the Soviet anthem - just giving the name would be a start. Adam Cuerden talk 18:59, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
