Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Philadelphia Flyers players/archive1

• No mention is made of stats leaders, such as games played or goals scored. All the other hockey player FLs have that included somewhere in the lead.
  • Have added in a paragraph on this, it has no specific references as the information comes from the table, which is taken from the general references.
• "of these Bill Barber and Bernie Parent had the most notable careers for the Flyers." - Unsourced and NPOV, should be removed.
  • Done: have provided the full list instead.
• You might want to update the accessdates on the general reference websites.
  • Done: changed as suggested.
• Gagne and Timonen's names are not wikilinked on the photos along the side.
  • Done: added links.
• Maybe include something about how many players are in the Flyers HOF, since it's in the table.
  • Done: added as suggested.
    • Upon further review of the Flyers HOF, I realize a few things. One, there's no source for any of the players' inductions into the Hall. Secondly, according to this article, there's actually 20 members, not 15. You can use the article as a source, but I'd update it to reflect the new info.

      • Thanks, I've been trying to find a RS for their inductions. Although there are 20 members, only 15 of those are players; the other five are made up of non-playing staff. Harrias (talk) 07:14, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • Done: added that reference in. Harrias (talk) 07:22, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Overall a good list, just missing a few things that are included in other lists. Fix these issues and I'll gladly support. Anthony (talk) 15:06, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your comments, I've made tweaks and additions as requested. Harrias (talk) 17:30, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removed hockeywriters and rauzulustreet, left flyershistory in for the sole reason that it is a supporting source to hockeydb; all the information is at hockeydb, but for a list of this size, it's nice to have a supporting source for the information. I can remove it if you feel it is necessary though. Harrias ^talk 09:04, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I would personally feel better if the source was removed, as I feel much better about an article/list if the sources are solid. Maybe Hockey-Reference or another site has a good replacement you could use. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 15:14, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done: removed as source. Harrias ^talk 09:42, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Now that the source comments are done, I'll look at the lead like I do for all the lists I review. Only found a couple things worth commenting on here:

• The last sentence of the first paragraph, regarding expansion, could use a cite.

• Done: changed as suggested. Harrias ^talk 21:28, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• "with his 420 regular season and 563 playoffs goals." I believe "playoffs" should be singular in this case. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 21:07, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Done: changed as suggested. Harrias ^talk 21:28, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• You don't repeat Clarke's first name in the third paragraph but you do repeat Barber's...
  • Done: removed Barber's first name.
