Featured article review needed[edit]

This is a 2007 Featured article that has not been maintained to WP:WIAFA standards. The following should be addressed, or the article should be submitted for a Featured article review:

  • There is considerable uncited text; I am not tagging it so as not to deface a Featured article.
  • There is poor layout along with MOS:SANDWICHing issues everywhere, caused by editors plopping in unnecessary (and not likely compliant with WIAFA) images.
  • The gallery of Dartmouth alumni does not comply with WP:GALLERY (those images could be added to the alumni list page). That list is out of control; there is a separate article, and some criteria should be used here to limit the list.
  • There is information with dated sources throughout, yet no "as of" date provided, one sample only, Approximately 20% of students participate in a varsity sport, and nearly 80% participate in some form of club, varsity, intramural, or other athletics.[187] ... sourced to 2008.
  • All sources should list a publisher and a date or author when those are available.
  • WP:CITATION OVERKILL in the lead.

That's just a start; a revamping is needed, starting with reducing the images by about half (and checking that those remaining comply with policy). SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:38, 30 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
