The Who by Numbers Tour[edit]

Nominator(s): Chrisnait (talk | contribs) 21:16, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about The Who by Numbers Tour, a 1975-76 tour by the Who. The tour was the final tour by the band's legendary drummer Keith Moon. The article has gone through two peer reviews, one successful GA nomination, and one successful DYK nomination. Feel free to leave any comments and suggestions below. Thank you.

Oppose. Sorry. We need more work on the prose. I have made a few edits. Can you see the problem here; "The Who returned to America in 1976 after playing four shows in Europe. The leg set indoor concert attendance records, and the Who returned in America in 1976 after playing four shows in Europe"? I suggest withdrawing this nomination and returning to FAC after a fresh pair of eyes has polished the prose. Graham Beards (talk) 21:46, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thank you for the edits. I removed the part you mentioned in your comment and added a sentence in the lead section about Moon. Chrisnait (talk | contribs) 01:24, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose This looks more like a WP:FL than a FA. I second Graham's comments, for example you need to introduce Moon in the main body of the article, and the set list is not sourced. (t · c) buidhe 23:01, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I disagree about the FL part. The Breeders Tour 2014 is another tour-related article, and it is a FA. Also, the set list is sourced. I made it more obvious by adding another sentence. Chrisnait (talk | contribs) 01:24, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
