Józef Piłsudski[edit]

Józef Piłsudski was one of the most prominent Poles of the 20th century and arguably one of the most important European politicians of the first three decades of that century. I have now done a major copyedit of the article, and I think it is reasonably NPOVed, comprehensive and well-cited. There is still a number of citation requests which in most cases I have added myself to some statements which I could not verify but which looked important and were in the article either before my copyedit or which I imported from related wiki articles. Besides the existing citation requests, what other issues would you suggest need to be addressed before FAC? Comments appreciated.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 23:46, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:CONTEXT and WP:MOSDATE, years, decades, and centuries without full dates generally should not be linked. For example, January 2006 should not be linked, instead change it to January 2006. Also, please note WP:BTW and WP:CONTEXT, which state that years with full dates should be linked. For example, February 28, 2006, should be come February 28, 2006.

Per WP:MOS#Headings, headings generally should not repeat the title of the article. For example, if the article was Ferdinand Magellan, instead of using the heading ==Magellan's journey==, use ==Journey==.
The article has a few or too many inline external links, which hamper the readibility of the article. Please convert them to footnotes, preferably in the cite.php format recommended by WP:WIAFA.

Please alphabetize the categories and interlanguage links.

Could you verify that Image:Jozef Pilsudski na Kasztance.jpg has a proper tag? 100 years from now would be 1906; the text at which the image is located describes events in the 1920s.

- That was quick :) Issues 2 (headings) and 4 (cats) are addressed now. After hours I spent today tidying up the references, I honestly don't have the heart to tackle issue 1 (dates). 3 (elinks) - I will deal with it before FAC, for now they serve as temporary references in places I was not happy with quality of refs but couldn't find anything better. 5 (pic copyright) - I have changed the tag to {{PD-art-life-70}}, added source and date (1928).--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 00:12, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - For a simple way to fix issue number 1, you can ask User:Bobblewik to fix it for you, or you can copy User:Bobblewik/monobook.js to your monobook.js (or maybe I'll just fix it). AndyZ _t 00:38, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    - I've asked him for assistance. Tnx for the tip.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 00:58, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- All issues are now addressed, I believe. Tnx!--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 18:23, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Too many red links. I de-redded the link to Tadeusz Jordan-Rozwadowski, but there's more work to do. //Halibutt 09:33, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I'll see what I can do. I count 18 red links in mainbody now.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 18:23, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There are still some odd date links. In response to Andy's point about dates in articles: this task is easier with the aid of a 'dates' tab in edit mode. Simply copy the entire contents of User:Bobblewik/monobook.js to your own monobook. Then follow the instructions in your monobook to clear the cache (i.e. press Ctrl-Shift-R in Firefox, or Ctrl-F5 in IE) before it will work. You will also get a 'units' tab. Hope that helps. bobblewik 19:52, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
