USS Missouri (BB-63)[edit]

This artilce has been flagged for having "citation issues", I have been working on improving it for about two weeks now. I have made a monumental effort to bring this article back up to what is now considered Featured Status, I am now looking for any additional input from the group members as to what can be done to make it better.

Kirill Lokshin[edit]

The improvements are quite impressive; the previous lack of inline citations seems to be basically resolved, so this appears to be up to par with more modern FAs. A few other suggestions, though:

The lead section seems quite short for an article of this length; I'd consider expanding it a bit.
The "See also" section should be eliminated, if possible; I'm fairly sure most, if not all, of the things there are already linked within the text. The last few links there should be under "External links", in any case.
The "Missouri in Fiction" section is basically a trivia list; per WP:MILHIST#Popular culture, it ought to have something done to it (although I'm not entirely sure what).
The "See USS Missouri for other ships of the same name." blurb should really be in a {{dablink}} at the top of the article, rather than at the bottom.

Overall, though, this looks great! Kirill Lokshin 16:30, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please order sections to conform with WP:LAYOUT, and make section headings conform to WP:MOS and WP:MSH. Sandy (Talk) 20:03, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have made some changes based on the links you gave. Is this better? TomStar81 (Talk) 00:48, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
