David Beckham[edit]

I hereby nominate this article. Feel free to add comments. --202.75.80.8 01:48, 12 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Mild Object 1) The lead section is too short to give an overview of the entire article. 2) Only one picture? There have got to be others that could be used of him in action on the playing field. 3) There is nothing that I can see about his youth except the first sentence of the lead section. slambo 15:27, May 12, 2005 (UTC)
  • Object I'm afraid. The quality of prose throughout is somewhat lacking, I personally find the text regarding his Man U career clunky. The article also claims that Beckham has spent his career at only two clubs, which is incorrect. This article is alright but until the quality of writing and factual information improves I will not support. Rje 01:31, May 13, 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. I have to echo the above. Also, the current form of the celebrity lifestyle section is not satisfactory. A lot of one sentence paragraphs and sentences without transition make it feel too disjointed. Phils 10:00, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
