Football in the Philippines[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for a peer review because, association football has been a developing sport in the Philippines and has a rich history about it, dating back in the 1900s. I also want to promote this article at least to a good article.

  • I started reading the article but I can't help editing some unclear and awkward sentence constructions in the lead section. --seav (talk) 14:40, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Cas Liber[edit]

  • You wanna make the paragraphs bigger and more solid like they are in the Early years section. Some of the later sections look a bit choppy as they are in small bits. – expanded some of them.

*Also a hundred years ago,... - use the date as this expression will become stale. – changed it into a date

*to renovate and upgrade football in the Philippines - err, it is not a hotel, try "to popularise football in the Philippines" – changed renovate into build, added facilities in that part.

  • The Filipinos easily fell in love with the game because of its competitive and action-packed nature. - how is basketball more competitive than football (or cricket...or chess for that matter??) - I'd drop that adjective - the sentence not sure about either - needs a ref in any case. – I've made some changes. Will that work?
  • There are a few grammar errors etc. I will try and fix some and highlight some more improvements.
