This article was passed almost four years ago and a large majority of the paragraphs have no citations at all. YellowMonkey (cricket calendar poll!) paid editing=POV 15:06, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Images need alt text as per WP:ALT. This is for WP:ACCESSIBILITY to the visually impaired. Eubulides (talk)
- My opinion is it fails on citations straight out, it appears quite a few of the references that are used are dead as well (or as least for me). Also there is only one image there should be quite a few more. Personal i say it might fail GA never mind FA. The table has no references to where the information has come from i am pretty sure it would be on microsoft website somewhere. Other than them i would say it is of FA status, but i am not going to review it throughly because of the above problems.--Andy (talk - contrib) 15:18, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
FARC commentary
- Suggested FA criteria concern are citations, reliable sources, alt text. Also note the recent change to WP:WIAFA (1c) requiring "high-quality" sources. FAQ? YellowMonkey (cricket photo poll!) paid editing=POV 00:45, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
- Delist. Jeez, with such a sexy article title, I'm shocked this hasn't gotten more reviews. :) Needs inline citations on a lot of paragraphs, and linkchecker shows at least three dead references. JKBrooks85 (talk) 06:41, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
