Wikipedia:Cleanup

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by PonyToast (talk | contribs) at 00:06, 29 June 2006 (June 28, 2006). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

The cleanup page is a place where articles with problems (ungrammatical, poorly formatted, confusing, etc.) can be listed. Any user can fix or list articles here. Feel free to make use of the Wikipedia:Cleanup resources.

Older cleanup: Category:Cleanup by month. Pages are archived by month, but are still in need of cleanup (or de-listing if they have already been cleaned up).

Also remember that you can submit an article in need of cleanup to the Cleanup Taskforce (which is always looking for members).

For more detailed information about this page, see Wikipedia:Cleanup process.

Just to let everyone know, there were 14,898 articles tagged for cleanup as of 20 June 2006. This means that we are working on 1.24% of English Wikipedia's articles. Most of these articles can be found under Category:Cleanup by month and are not listed below. Anything you can do to help clear the backlog would be greatly appreciated.

Oldest listings

  • Please help reduce the size of this page by removing listings from previous months that have already been fixed. You may also remove listings that have not been fixed, as long as you move any outstanding comments to the article's talk page, and make sure that the article itself is still tagged for cleanup.

Role of women in religion Somewhat Non-POV: could be merged on development with Women as theological figures as the intro - or linked into Feminist theology User:Jackiespeel 18:08, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • When God Was a Woman Non-NPOV. Jackiespeel 18:08, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • March on Rome - needs general copyediting. It's currently two massive rambling paragraphs.
  • 9/11 conspiracy theories - Needs to be shortened, and have the lists conformed. Also need to have 'bullshit' (i.e., nonsourced and highly opinionated statements) removed. Less than 10% of the statements have sources, even after checking the references at the bottom of the page.

  • Wald (onomastics). No idea how to fix. -- User:Docu
  • Horse Article is long, disorganized and unwieldy. Also contains material already created in related subtopics. Repeats itself in several places, sometimes contradicts itself--probably in part due to length. Needs serious reorganization. Too much for one person to work on alone, especially someone as new as myself, needs people with good Wikipedia editing skills to create some new articles, merge sections of this article with existing ones, maybe expand the disambiguation page. Or make suggestions on the Talk:Horse page. This page also has been having some minor problems with vandalism. Montanabw 18:46, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed up the introduction with a major rewrite, but the rest of the article needs cleanup from a referreed source. Decadencecavy 04:55, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Cult film - the article used to be pretty good. Now, it's a total mess! (Ibaranoff24 19:06, 10 June 2006 (UTC)) - It should be better now. Someone should, however, have a second look at it (17:22, 24 June 2006 (UTC))[reply]
  • Mundelein - "Also in 2005/2006 Mundelein has began to flourish. Many corperations have made their way into this suburb, such as Staples, TJ Max (and more), the amazing SUPER Target, White Castle, Pay Less Shoes, Pier 1 Imports, Fine Liquors, Jimmy Johns, Little Ceasars, Pet Supplies Plus, Home Depot, and Applebee's (which unfortunately had poor service upon its grand opening). It is apparent that Mundelein is booming and should no longer be considered a "bedroom" community." This paragraph seems somewhat biased, especially the comment on Applebee's service.

  • Objectivity (philosophy) is confused, uncited, poorly written, and poorly formatted. It is a rewrite of the disambiguity page for objectivity. Much of the content is erroneous as well as irrelevant to the specific nature of the article title.

I have attempted the cleanup, but it may still need attention from an expert in order to simplify what is being said, but I have got rid of repetition, grammar errors, stylistic errors and the like. --Knucmo2 10:31, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Religion and class. I created a stub on this with the suggestion of eventual merger with Religion and politics on development: the case for a separate article was, I admit, marginal. The redirect has been made, but no transfer of the stub. (And if there are other "(specific religion) and politics" and related articles, please add to the main one.)

  • WCBI-TV - I can live with the first two sections... but everything below that needs to be looked at and/or overhauled. It seems like the article just dabbles way too much in minutiae. Amnewsboy 23:49, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Spring holiday – I created this article, I'm somewhat emotionally involved in the subject. Would like some help with POV and organization. The article is very professionally collaberated, though, with alot of citations. Also would like some input on a possible article name change. — CRAZY`(IN)`SANE 04:02, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Pope Sixtus IV - References do not support article; in particular, I cannot find any references for the claim that Pope Sixtus IV was either of Jewish ancestry or secretly a practicing Jew. Adambondy 10:14, 5 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • William Adlam(Bio of 18th-cen & Napol.-era Brit. Gen.)+ Added struc, chron, etc. - Still needs work: General c-u, & be sure who was shot on Nelson's ship; Dates!Jerzyt
  • Women as theological figures Has been developed somewhat since I started it: and starting to go all over the place. Anyone care to make it more elegant? Jackiespeel 17:56, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Adlam(English surname mixed with apparent family military history)+Rem self-lks; Turn truly ugly sentence into somewhat ugly list; stub & c-u tags; added Cat. - Not a Del candidate, but possibly should be reduced to a Dab; other options abound.Jerzyt

  • Aesthetic Realism needs a serious cleanup. It seems to have been a battleground of an edit war in the past, and has received little attention after being unprotected to make it less rife with mudslinging from both sides and more encyclopaedic. beekman 19:18, 27 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
