I would like to one day see this article featured, so I would like your input on how to get it to that stage. What should I add, and what do you want improved? Denelson83 07:17, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • You're going to have to cite your sources, an unreferrenced article hasn't made it to featured status for a while now. Also toward the end of the article there are a number of sections that are single sentences, try and turn them into paragraphs--nixie 08:11, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • The lead needs to be longer too--nixie 00:44, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
      • As in just a summary of what is in the rest of the article? Denelson83 06:13, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
        • Yep--nixie 11:51, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Now, when the sources are cited, does that mean that almost every single piece of information in the article has to have an external reference? Denelson83 00:28, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • My personal rule is site the general material you used to write the article as references, for anything contentious or specific like statistics I use a footnote showing the exact source, see Military history of the Soviet Union for a good example--nixie 13:52, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
