Sid Haig[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I had nominated it two times for Good Article and was told by the person who failed it that I should run it by PR before renominating. I don't think it'll ever get FA status but I would like it to achieve GA.

Comments from The Rambling Man (talk · contribs)[edit]

Hi CyberGhostface, some comments which should help the article on its way to GA.

  • Expand the lead per WP:LEAD, probably two paragraphs.
  • " is perhaps best known " - stick with encyclopaedic terminology.
  • "Haig's career began somewhat by accident" again, non-encyclopaedic, almost speculative.
  • "which shot to #4" - same again.
  • Headings per WP:HEAD should not have "The...", so just "Pasadena Playhouse" will suffice.
  • "When Sid ..." - overfamiliar. Use Haig.
  • Avoid squashing text between images per WP:MOS#Images.
  • The prose could do with a good copyedit, it reads a little like a fan wrote it right now. It just needs to be tighter and more neutral and encyclopaedic in tone.
  • Most of Acting section is uncited.

Hope some of that helps. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:56, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
