Featured article candidates/Homicide: Life on the Street (season 2)/archive1

The first season article has already passed as an FA, and this article on the second season follows very much the same form. I believe it is comprehensive, well-written and meets the FA standards. It is already a good article, is the anchor article of a good topic, and has undergone a peer review, the recommendations from which have been implemented into the article. I am ready and eager to respond to any comments here at the FAC. Thanks! — Hun ter Ka hn 01:24, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Quick comment about references In anticipation of this question, I wanted to point out that the Star-Ledger off-line sources do not have page numbers. This is because I got those sources off of the Newsbank database and the pages were not included with them. I've tried Googling and searching Lexis Nexis to find those page numbers, but have had no luck. Also, most of these sources were off-line, but I have searched for online links and added the URLs wherever possible, so the ones that have links now are the only ones that I've found. If any reviewer wants to take a look at any particular off-line source, let me know and I can copy-and-paste the content into an e-mail and send it to you. Thanks! — Hun ter Ka hn 01:33, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ranges should use endashes
- I think I've got them all now, but if I missed any please let me know. — Hun ter Ka hn 20:41, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ref 50: page?
- I just went back into Lexis Nexis and found that this one, too, did not have a page number listed (same as the Star-Ledger sources). It's frustrating, but I'm not sure we can do anything about it. — Hun ter Ka hn 20:41, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
References to audio/video sources should have times when sourcing quotes or specific claims (ex. ref 52). Nikkimaria (talk) 20:12, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Added times for both the "Anatomy of a Homicide" reference you refer to, as well as a Tom Fontana audio commentary ref (#51). — Hun ter Ka hn 20:41, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Well written, comprehensive, extensively referenced appears to meet all FA criteria.--Opark 77 (talk) 10:56, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support by Ruhrfisch - I was involved in a pretty detailed peer review of this article and find that it now meets the FA criteria. Nice job, Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 04:37, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support - don't really have much to say other than it's a well written and comprehensive article and seems to comfortably meet all of the FA criteria. Coolug (talk) 18:39, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Waiting for a spotcheck for accurate representation of sources and close paraphrasing. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 02:15, 23 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No concerns based on my spot-check, and no cause for concern otherwise. Juliancolton (talk) 03:10, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
