I'm afraid this article has some way to go if it is to become a good article, with issues relating to most aspects of the

good article criteria
.

  • The prose consists almost entirely of a list of items, bullet point style, of the format "On (date), Barcelona did X". This should be extensively reworked into coherent paragraphs. See 2011–12 Sheffield United F.C. season or 2011–12 York City F.C. season for examples of how this can be done.
  • The overwhelming majority of references are to Barcelona's own website. While
    self-published sources
    can in some circumstances be appropriate as sources on themselves, they should not be the primary type of reference. A club's own website is unlikely to take an impartial view on events, and there are many independent news sources that report on Barcelona's activities.
  • Wikipedia itself should never be used as a source. Neither should Twitter.
  • As the 2012–13 season has not yet finished, the article is not yet stable, and is likely to be subject to significant change in the next few weeks.
  • The amount of statistical detail in tables seems
    WP:GA can be used as examples of good practice. Oldelpaso (talk) 21:20, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply
