Konstantin Päts[edit]

Nominator(s): H2ppyme H2ppyme (talk) 23:50, 13 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The most prominent Estonian politician of the interwar period. Päts was the nation's leader during its three most crucial moments, the Estonian War of Independence, his own self-coup in 1934 and the Soviet occupation. He is seen by Estonians either as the Father of the Nation, destructor of democracy or even a Soviet collaborator or an agent. H2ppyme (talk) 23:50, 13 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Procedural note Hi, welcome to FAC. Have you added {{subst:FAC}} to the article's Talk Page according to the FAC instructions? Also, it would be wise to ensure there are no unsourced statements. As a general rule, all paragraphs should have a citation at the end.Graham Beards (talk) 00:39, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I added some references and restructured the rest as they were often included in the previous reference.H2ppyme (talk) 07:04, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose pending resolution of image licensing issues. Nikkimaria (talk) 22:18, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. This would benefit from going through WP:PR and from a copy edit. I see images places on opposite sides of the page, squeezing text. I see collapsible navboxes or similar in the middle of the article. Etc. Lingzhi ♦ (talk) 04:21, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
