Lombo Pocket Watch

I'm nominating this article for featured article because I believe this horse is the greatest thing to happen to Australian Harness Racing in years, his record breaking ways speak for themselves. LPWRHR (talk) 16:18, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

• Oppose, the subject matter of an article is not grounds for becoming a featured article. Featured articles have certain guidelines at WP:WIAFA which need to be met. I recommend that you withdraw this for now, and send the article to peer review first. Some examples of things that need to be fixed include WP:MOS errors (namely headings, for example, avoid using the one = headings in articles, as well as avoiding links in headings), WP:GTL, the WP:FOOTNOTEs are missing critical information which can be provided if you use {{Cite web}}, and the prose needs a lot of work and copyediting.

• Yeah I reckon go for that.LPWRHR (talk) 17:02, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

• I'll remove it from here shortly, and you can submit to peer review. Please wait for a bot to update the article talk page, per WP:FAC/ar. Good luck! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:08, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
