Good article criteria
. In reviewing the article, I have found there are a number of serious issues that need to be addressed.
- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose): b (MoS):
- The prose is patchy, maybe a 5/10.
- The lead is quite short and does not really adequately summarise the article.

- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- There is at least one [citation needed] tag. Also see above about poorly written and incomplete sections.
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- See above about retirement
- It follows the neutral point of viewpolicy.
- a (fair representation): b (all significant views):
- It is stable.
- It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic.
- a (tagged and captioned): b (lack of images does not in itself exclude GA): c (non-free images have fair use rationales):
- a (tagged and captioned): b (lack of images does not in itself exclude GA): c (non-free images have
- Overall:
- a Pass/Fail:
I will check back in no less than seven days. If progress is being made, the article will remain listed as a

- Thanks for the improvements, this now qualifies for GA. There are still problems with prose and I think that for such an important figure in his sport there is probably a lot more that could be said about him, but it is at least good enough to remain a GA. Thankyou.--Jackyd101 (talk) 03:16, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
