List of Olympians and Paralympians from Peel[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I recently created this list from scratch, drawing on a variety of different sources. Peel is a Region (formerly a county) in Ontario, Canada. I could have split things further to the individual cities and towns, but I like this level... not hyperlocal via cities, not macro via provinces.

I'm wondering how the list stacks up, whether it's at least on its way to featured list quality, what steps I might take to improve on it. Thanks, Zanimum (talk) 20:27, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Comment: You need to amend the title, to specify what "Peel" means. There are places of that name in the UK, US and Australia, and in the Netherlands as well. You can't assume that everyone will know that it's the Canadian Peel. Brianboulton (talk) 00:34, 23 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, good point. How's in now, as List of Olympians and Paralympians from Peel, Ontario? -- Zanimum (talk) 16:09, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That should do it. Brianboulton (talk) 00:15, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Any other guidance? -- Zanimum (talk) 21:28, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The lead should be an introduction to the topic, rather than an explanation of the criteria used for inclusion. The material currently in the lead, should be included as Notes at the end of the table, or in footnotes if they are only related to a few specific cases. Relevant info for the lead would be: a general description of the area included in the list, popular sports, # of Olympians, # of medals, etc.

  • For the list itself, I would recommend tables that can be sorted, rather than just bulleted lists. Possible headers could be "Name", "Olympic games" "Events" and "results".
  • I think for the list itself, you have all the material needed present in the article, but I think the formatting will need a significant amount of work before it is FL quality. Canada Hky (talk) 15:22, 9 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
