Article Selection

  • Smith & Wesson -- This is a huge article but it has recently been tagged as needing work. Spending some time reading through, I think that this might be a difficult one to take on. The problems with NPOV are subtle. The person who tagged it rightly notes that it everything seems "right" but leans towards being too positive. But it would take some careful eyes to comb through it all.
  • First Data - This one is of the same sort as the above, of course, but would be far easier to work with. It's a good one.
  • Fall of the Fascist regime in Italy -- This is a terrific article for our purposes but would also be a lot of work. Converting the story into appropriate wiki tone would be very do-able. I think if you do it, pair it with a shorter one that is less work.
  • Culinary arts - This is a terrible article with a history of having problems. It might need a whole re-think, which would require a recovery of some content that had been deleted by an veteran wikipedia user. But it could be done.
  • Kettle -- This one could work. There is some strange information on here that is not of interest to a general audience. But once that is handled, I wonder how much article you'd have left? -- after that, you'd have to interface with the related articles and think about what needs to be included where.
  • Fire Sea -- if you know this book, you could do it. The plot summary is far too long and the rest of the article isn't fleshed out as it needs to be.
