[edit]Height - not sure the infobox height is correct. NRL listed one may be from when he was a kid and still growing. I am for sure not 3 inches taller than a guy I have stood next to and stood shoulder to shoulder with. He is 6 ft 0 ins for my money. Londo06 05:51, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Good article review
[edit]- Well written:
- Lead needs to be expanded per WP:LEAD.
- Can you make a "Biography" section, with it being a level 2 header, with Parramatta, Quitting controversy, Move to Wee Waa, St Helens and Return to the NRL level 3 headers, as I think it would look better set out like that. See Thierry Henry if you don't understand this point.
- Factually accurate and verifiable:
- All of the references are good, but one or two things are not referenced.
- he played junior rugby league for the Wee Waa Panthers. - unsourced.
- Third paragraph in Parramatta section unsourced.
- He proved to be a worthy asset as the Panthers defeated the Moree Blue Boars in the grand final. - do you have a reference to back up your point, eg 'ab said that Lyon played an outstanding match.
- Second paragraph in representative career unsourced.
- Please note some of the above might just need a slight tweaking of sources, and in some cases references might just need to be moved to the correct place.
- All of the references are good, but one or two things are not referenced.
- Broad in its Coverage
- Is anything known about his personal life? Does he have any kids?
- Neutral
- Stable
- Images
- There is a watermark on the image in the infobox, I suggest it should get removed. Try and search on Flickr for an appropriate image that goes with Wikipedia guidlines.
- Overall
I am going to put the article on hold. When you have dealt with all the points, leave a note on my talkpage. If nothing has been done by one week time, the article shall be failed. Davnel03 13:19, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
- Seeing as no one has dealt to the problems, I am failing the article. Davnel03 15:07, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
Nicknames....
[edit]G'day folks... I'm thinking about helping out generally at this article.. and for now have removed the ref. to 'Judas' as a nickname - it would need a source to stay, and despite the strong feelings of parra fans probably isn't in common usage... Privatemusings (talk) 05:02, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
- further - isn't Mark Riddell the better known 'Piggy'? - haven't really heard that one either... will dig around a bit and remove it if I can't find anything.... Privatemusings (talk) 05:34, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
