[edit] City of Manchester Stadium

Self-nom. Article about a sports venue in Manchester that I have been working on for a while, and I think it is now ready for FAC. Has had a peer review, but did not garner much response. Oldelpaso 21:39, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

*Minor Oppose. See WP:GTL

I don't like the three short sections...Critical reaction, Transport and Attendance statistics. Perhaps Attendance statistics could go in the info box. Critical reaction could be merged into Structure and facilities. Transport, I can put up with, however could be merged into History? Todd661 06:25, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

I've turned the attendances into a floating wikitable, and I've merged the information in Critical reaction elsewhere. Oldelpaso 18:31, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Support. Worthy of FA status. Todd661 23:20, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

• Support As stadium articles go, this one is pretty good, and worthy of recognition. Kingfisherswift 15:13, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Support It's nice to see articles cite their sources and it has good pictures Kingjamie 18:34, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose (For now) The photograph in the infobox is pretty poor - the stadium is in such contrast from the bright sky, it can't really be seen - Can we replace it with something better as it's the first image we see when reading the article? --Mcginnly | Natter 10:41, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Done. Oldelpaso 18:59, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment, an image is not even a prerequisite for FA status, so a poor image is not enough to oppose the nomination. Well, problem is already solved, but I'd like to point it out anyway. – Elisson • Talk 19:15, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
• Support, one of the best stadium articles out there. – Elisson • Talk 19:15, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
