Nominator(s): Idiosincrático (talk) 03:50, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Davor Šuker is a Croatian former professional footballer who represented both the Croatia and Yugoslavia national teams during the 1990s and early 2000s. He only made two appearances for Yugoslavia and as of nominating he is Croatia's all time top scorer with 45 goals. I had only created his list of international goals recently, but I'm very confident that this list meets FL standard. Thanks in advance :) Idiosincrático (talk) 03:50, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Add Template:Use British English or otherwise appropriate
  • Wl striker; could be to an appropriate wikipedia page, or perhaps wikitionary has an entry
  • it was Croatia's second game since reforming the national football association in the early 1990s, the team previously had not played a match since 1956. - some sort of conjunction is needed after the comma; something like "since reforming the national football association in the early 1990s, as the team previously"
  • Wl hat-trick
  • Remove wl from France, since it's already a well-known place
  • Image caption: Šuker scored two international hat-tricks for Croatia, they were scored against Estonia and Australia in 1995 and 1998 respectively. - replace the somma with a semicolon

  • "it was Croatia's second game since reforming the national football association in the early 1990s, as the team previously had not played a match since 1956." => "it was Croatia's second game since reforming the national football association in the early 1990s; the team previously had not played a match since 1956."
  • "He made his official debut for Croatia on 22 October 1992 against Mexico, during the friendly match at the Stadion Maksimir he scored a brace" - the comma after Mexico should be a comma. Also, why not just say he scored two goals, rather than the slightly slangy "a brace"? If you are really keen to use the term "brace", please wikilink it, as I am reasonably sure people who don't follow football really closely will have no idea what it means.
  • "In combination with his impressive club career" - this doesn't really work, as you don't say what his club career is being considered in combination with. I would suggest changing it to "Based on his international performances and his impressive club career...."
  • "Does not include match for Croatia against Romania on 22 December 1990, the friendly was not recognised by FIFA" => "Does not include match for Croatia against Romania on 22 December 1990, which was not recognised by FIFA"
  • That's it, I think! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:26, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    All addressed, I assumed that you meant a semi-colon after Mexico for your second suggestion, Cheers @ChrisTheDude. Idiosincrático (talk) 00:54, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I did indeed :-) Support -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:17, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think {{Serbia national football team}} should be removed from the article. Davor Šuker played for Yugoslavia and Croatia national teams. He did not represent Serbia. -- Phikia (talk) 14:00, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Image review – Both of the photos used in the article have appropriate free licenses and captions. While maybe not strictly an FL requirement, it would be nice to see alt text added to the images for greater accessibility. Giants2008 (Talk) 01:22, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Done @Giants2008. Idiosincrático (talk) 02:47, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
