W. G. Grace was nominated as a good article, but it did not meet the good article criteria at the time (August 19, 2017). There are suggestions on the review page for improving the article. If you can improve it, please do; it may then be renominated. |

The article is 120k and would grow considerably, perhaps to 250k, if substantial inputs per season are done. Partly as an experiment, I created W. G. Grace in the 1878 English cricket season recently and I suggest that is the way forward. Grace is too big a subject for a single article and even needs his own category! ----Jack | talk page 10:59, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
As the article is subject to extensive restructure via the creation of multiple sub-articles, I've reduced the rating to start until it adequately meets criteria 1 and 5. ----Jack | talk page 12:08, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Should there not always be a space between his initals, as in W._G._Grace? Both this and the unspaced W.G._Grace appear randomly throughout the article. In keeping with List of literary initials (maybe there is some WP:-type rule to invoke?), I propose a name change to W._G._Grace (without the underscores, obviously) wherever it occurs. >MinorProphet (talk) 17:41, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Quite simply what are the brackets in the opening section for? ILikeCycling (talk) 22:27, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
Sorry I was referring to the brackets in the career statistics. ILikeCycling (talk) 18:01, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

I heard that his death was brought on by the news of the death of his favourite nephew in the trenches. No sign of this here. Any updates? Valetude (talk) 22:58, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
I hadn't intended to imply that the whole sentence was a quotation. The placing of the Opinion tag at the end of the sentence had led me to assume that the tag applied to the quotation at the end of the sentence rather than to the unquoted part preceding it. It seems to me that the unquoted part directly relies on the two preceding paragraphs - themselves well-referenced - on Grace's "shamateurism", and hence needs no further citation.
