There are suggestions below for improving the article to meet the good article criteria. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. | |||||||||||||

I see no benefit in this little section. It is pure opinion and has no place on this page surely.
I have removed the transfers section, as Wikipedia is not a news service. Oldelpaso 11:20, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
Someone vandalized the Top paragraph
http://www.cafc.co.uk/CharltonOverseas.ink Has details on the MyPa and NZ Knights links.
The paragraphs about the fan director strike me as biased in the extreme. I don't personally know enough about the gentleman in question to be able to rewrite it, though. Js farrar 11:22, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
En dashes should be used in scorelines and only full dates and dates with a day and month should be wikilinked, including in the footnotes. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dashes) and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers). Epbr123 20:54, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
I've put it on hold it as WP:GA for the following reasons:
If someone wishes to attend to these and let me know so I can review the article again for GA, that'd be cool. The Rambling Man 07:33, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
Hang on it will be reviewed by Chaza 1000 shortly Chaza 1000 19:29, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
I think it's well written and cites its references. It isn't that stable but I'll pass it. Chaza 1000 19:41, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
I see that in the infobox, the capacity is stated as 27114, but somewhere in the article stated as 27111. What is the actual number of seats? ( Addaick 10:55, 26 August 2007 (UTC))
I'm looking for info on how many goals Hasse Jeppson also known as Hans Jeppson scored for Charlton when he was at the club. He played twelve games for them during 1951, does anybody have a book detailing CA stats? - Soprani 11:50, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for looking it up, if the book says 11 games I'll go with that. - Soprani 17:20, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
I have created a Charlton Athletic F.C. Reserves page, just incase you are interested in taking a look. Dirk Valentine 13:27, 18 May 2008 (GMT)
Thanks for looking at this if you were going to replace the kits. I'd just like to know why wanted to replace the kits, because they had to much detail, surely the more detail there is the better. Also the kits you chose look nothing, except colour-wise, like the new kits and i think it is nice to have our actual clubs kits on the page.
These were created in the same vein as the England national football team kits and Crystal Palace F.C. kits -- Dirk Valentine ( talk) 12:08, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
To create a new pattern template follow the examples below. When you have created a new pattern please add it to the list below. Do not create patterns for minor details on a kit, the template is for showing basic team colours. It is not supposed to be an accurate drawing of the kit.
Someone needs to add something about Zabeel Investments and the attempted takeover Kennywest ( talk) 08:08, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
Can the following be explained as to why points deduction didn't occur? Thanks.
"Charlton Athletic are currently owned by a company called Baton 2010 Ltd, which is controlled by club chairman Richard Murray. A life-long fan of the south-east London side, Murray was forced to restructure Charlton Athletic this summer when Charlton Athletic plc was effectively wound up with debts of more than £30m. Charlton Athletic Football Company, which owns the players, and Charlton Athletic Holdings, which owns the Addicks' stadium The Valley and the training ground, were transferred to Murray's new company in July." Imagine Reason ( talk) 02:52, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
Didn't that club go broke in 1984? In which case, *this* club were founded in 1984, not 1905? Heywoodg talk 13:01, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
As a neutral outsider, the section on "Fan protests" smacks of WP:RECENT and WP:UNDUE, and probably WP:SOAPBOX, however much sympathy I have with the fans. Dave.Dunford ( talk) 10:54, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
A short section was added, deleted, reinserted, and deleted again. I have re-added it. My justification is that, while over 200 clubs are affected by the scandal, Charlton is one of the few associated with a named alleged abuser. Articles about Crewe Alexandra, Peterborough United and Chelsea are other club articles mentioning their implication in the scandal due to associations with named abusers.

Hi all, I'm doing some work on the
Benny Fenton article and am having trouble finding a source for something. I had previously cited this from an obituary on the 11v11 website, but it's disappeared and I can't find a replacement reference (just the bit in bold):
"In January 1977, he rejoined Charlton as secretary. He became assistant manager of the Addicks in March 1980 and progressed to the position of general manager in June 1981. He stayed in that post until June 1982."
If anyone can help with this, that'd be great. Thanks,
Nzd

I think a badge should be uploaded and the appropriate permissions made for the infobox. Seems wrong for them to be the only league club with no image. Sadly I'm not very good at the image uploading so if someone could look into it it would be appreciated. CoatbridgeChancellor ( talk) 00:35, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

It is not within the recommended practice outlined in the Manual of Style for Wikipedia football club articles - Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Clubs - and is devoid of inline citations.
