Wikipedia:Peer review/American Broadcasting Company/archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


I have listed this article for peer review because I just replaced most of its pre-existing text with a translation of text from the French Wikipedia. I want the article to live up to the quality of its French counterpart, which is a featured article itself, yet it concerns me that there are still some problems that would prevent this English article from attaining featured article status. Please discuss what specific measures can be taken to help improve the quality of the article; I would gladly appreciate the time and cooperation of anyone who is willing to be involved in this discussion. —Seth Allen (talk) 15:09, November 20, 2013 (UTC)

  • Redundancy: Vague terms of size often are unnecessary and redundant - “some”, “a variety/number/majority of”, “several”, “a few”, “many”, “any”, and “all”. (tJosve05a (c) 21:27, 22 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
