[edit] Needing attention
There are many articles relating to Bradford which require attention and work. Members of the project are encouraged to post articles in need of work in the table below. Any relevant article can be nominated, but articles with greater significance should be of the highest priority, and so please explain why you nominated this article and what needs doing.
Articles that you think are almost at WP:GA or WP:FA standard, are also very good articles to nominate!
| Article name | Date of nom. | Who nominated it | Why are you nominating it? | What needs attention? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Example | 25/2/07 | User:Example | Example is very important because it is used as a demonstration for what we need. | Sources do not use inline citation, the overall appearance is dated, and in breach of WP:LEAD and WP:MOS. Better use of headings, images and wider range of sources would rapidly improve the article. |
| J. B. Priestley | 25/2/07 | User:Fl1942 | One of Bradford's most respected writers. It deserves better than this. | Huge way to get to even GA status. Citations, expansion, etc. |
