Modelled off the similar list for Wayne Rooney which looks as though it will be a FL in the next few days, this does have a few minor formatting variations. Charlton is still England's leading goal scorer, though Rooney looks like taking that record soon. As always, throw whatever you've got at me! Harrias talk 16:02, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments nice piece of work, I made a tweak or two, but have the following comments:
Otherwise nothing to worry me unduly. Eyes down for the French equivalent, coming to an FLC near you soon! The Rambling Man (talk) 16:28, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

*"...Ballon d'Or winner as world football's player of the year...", as far as I'm aware the Ballon d'Or was a strictly European accolade. Perhaps rephrase to 'Europe's footballer of the year'?

- Support on style and structure. Nice work. Lemonade51 (talk) 21:37, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Mattythewhite
I see Harrias is away for another week... will this nomination be left open long enough for them to respond to the outstanding comments? Thanks, Mattythewhite (talk) 15:47, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Support I feel this list now meets the criteria. Mattythewhite (talk) 21:58, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Note the list ought to note that Rooney is now number one, and when he overtook Charlton's record. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:52, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
- "with his first hat-trick in international football" does not seem to be referenced
- Added ref at the end of the sentence. Harrias talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- "final international goal " should mention month/year
- "successful 1966 FIFA World Cup campaign" I would prefer to have this be more explicit about ENG winning the title
- Made this more explicit. Harrias talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- "Bloomsbury Publishing plc" shouldn't the latter be capitalized?
- ref 16 and 45 are missing dates
- They are not news sources, they don't have dates. Harrias talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't understand "The Times (55408)" notation
- The number in brackets is the issue number, it's quite common when referencing The Times, and is part of what they request for citations. Harrias talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- can't really check much of the refs though
- more this to notes: England score listed first, score column indicates score after each Charlton goal.
- I think it is important to make it obvious and clear, rather than hiding it away in the notes. Harrias talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Unless I am missing something, aren't these goals the pinnacle of his career? I think you could expand on this sentence and say one goal in the group stage, and both of goals in the 2-1 semifinal win. Nergaal (talk) 23:03, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- @Nergaal: Ahh, I see what you mean. Added a bit more in now. Harrias talk 13:34, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
