List of Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States[edit]
- Notified:WP US Government, Warhol13, DLJessup
Not really sure how this ever got through. The obvious issue is that there is no lede to speak of; in addition some third party references would be nice, but really the lede is the problem. One can assume that everyone knows what the US Supreme Court is, but the lack of any kind of prose is a problem. Ironholds (talk) 10:36, 27 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delist -- There is practically no lead and references are insufficient to verify the article.--₮RUCӨ 01:50, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delist -- fully agree with the above. There are myriad possibilities for this list and many different changes that could (should) be made, but in its current form, this list is not featured content.
- Needs a lead (obviously).
- Needs images.
- Date ranges should be in two separate columns.
- Violation of WP:BOLDFACE as per active justices.
- Inline citations are not proper; i.e., they should direct to specific works. Most of the material in there now belongs in a footnotes section.
- Asterisks shouldn't be separated from their entries.
- I fail to see how the timeline adds to the article; it's redundant information.
Numerous other issues as well, but the above certainly disqualifies this list. KV5 • Squawk box • Fight on! 18:07, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Once (if) the major issues are resolved, there are nitty-gritty MOS issues to iron out, such as the dash spacing and the extraneous external links. Dabomb87 (talk) 23:10, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I notified the new Wikipedia:WikiProject United States courts and judges. We'll see if any of them can improve the list enough to rescue it from delisting. – Quadell (talk) 01:07, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
