The following suggestions were generated by a semi-automatic
javascript program, and might not be applicable for the article in question.
- Please expand the lead to conform with guidelines at
Wikipedia:Lead. The article should have an appropriate number of paragraphs as is shown on
WP:LEAD, and should adequately summarize the article.
[?]
- Per
Wikipedia:Context and
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates), months and days of the week generally should not be linked. Years, decades, and centuries can be linked if they provide
context for the article.
[?]
- Per
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), there should be a non-breaking space -
between a number and the unit of measurement. For example, instead of 2 miles, use 2 miles, which when you are editing the page, should look like: 2 miles.
[?]
- Per
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), when doing conversions, please use standard abbreviations: for example, miles -> mi, kilometers squared -> km2, and pounds -> lb.
[?]
- Per
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), please spell out source units of measurements in text; for example, the Moon is 380,000 kilometres (240,000 mi) from Earth.
[?] Specifically, an example is 42.195 km.
- When writing standard abbreviations, the abbreviations should not have a 's' to demark plurality (for example, change kms to km and lbs to lb).
- Per
Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings), headings generally do not start with articles ('the', 'a(n)'). For example, if there was a section called ==The Biography==, it should be changed to ==Biography==.
[?]
- This article may need to undergo
summary style, where a series of appropriate subpages are used. For example, if the article is
United States, than an appropriate subpage would be
History of the United States, such that a summary of the subpage exists on the mother article, while the subpage goes into more detail.
[?]
- Please make the spelling of English words consistent with either
American or British spelling, depending upon the subject of the article. Examples include: honor (A) (British: honour), armor (A) (British: armour), meter (A) (British: metre), organise (B) (American: organize), realize (A) (British: realise), traveled (A) (British: travelled), fulfillment (A) (British: fulfilment), grey (B) (American: gray).
- Watch for
redundancies that make the article too wordy instead of being crisp and concise. (You may wish to try Tony1's
redundancy exercises.)
- Vague terms of size often are unnecessary and redundant - “some”, “a variety/number/majority of”, “several”, “a few”, “many”, “any”, and “all”. For example, “
All pigs are pink, so we thought of a number of ways to turn them green.”
- “In
the year [of] 1930”
- Avoid misplaced formality: “in order to/for” (-> to/for), “thereupon”, “notwithstanding”,
etc.
- Please ensure that the article has gone through a thorough copyediting so that it exemplifies some of
Wikipedia's best work. See also
User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 1a.

redundancies that make the article too wordy instead of being crisp and concise. (You may wish to try Tony1's
redundancy exercises.)
