I am nominating this featured article for review because it currently lacks inline citations - featured article criteria 1(c) Tom B (talk) 14:54, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Please add alt text to images; see WP:ALT. Eubulides (talk) 21:45, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yikes, this would need a total overhaul. Eight sources in the whole article? I know the rules have been tightenedd over time regarding featured articles, but come on. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 18:42, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I have the resources book and knowledge-wise to get the sourcing in this article to FA standard, but I'm not sure I have the time over the next couple of weeks, owing to exams, papers, ArbCom candidacies, other on-wiki commitments. I'll try to do it, though. Steve Smith (talk) 08:20, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File:Trudeau and Sharp.JPG: I've replaced the outdated historic fair-use rationale with a new fair-use template.
File:Trudeau podium2.JPG: I've changed the pd tag to a fair-use one. DrKiernan (talk) 10:47, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe either of the above, or File:Trudeau, Turner, Chretien, and Pearson.jpg, pass criterion #8 of the WP:NFCC, but would welcome others' views. Steve Smith (talk) 11:45, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ordinarily, no, they don't. The first image of Trudeau and Sharp is just two men talking to each other, and Trudeau on the podium doesn't show anymore than any moment in any political rally. However, in this instance the sources clearly state that there are no restrictions on use or reproduction, e.g. [2], and we have fulfilled LAC's requirements for reproduction of their material anyway [3].

Steve has only been able to make a small expansion and citing, so I moved this YellowMonkey (bananabucket) (Invincibles finally at Featured topic candidates) 22:43, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

FARC commentary[edit]

Suggested FA criteria concern are citations, image copyrights. Also note the recent change to WP:WIAFA (1c) requiring "high-quality" sources. YellowMonkey (bananabucket) (Invincibles finally at Featured topic candidates) 22:43, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delist Needs more inline citations and it looks as though no one has time to work on it at the moment, Tom B (talk) 00:59, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delist, this article is largely uncited, not enough progress. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:32, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delist, it seems that Steve Smith was not able to get to this article as he wished, which is unfortunate. No work has been completed in almost a month, references are still extremely thin, ALT text still missing for images. Referencing is the major issue at this point.
