This is my fourth National Football League FLC, coming after List of Baltimore Ravens seasons. The Atlanta Falcons are a mediocre team in the league, with some success coming in the last 20 years. Thanks in advance to everyone who provides their feedback :) ULPS ^{(talk • contribs)} 22:35, 31 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Support - I didn't pick up anything - great work! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:04, 1 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hey man im josh

• "Ref" column should be "Refs" instead since some of the sections have multiple references.
• Could you include notes for 2002 and 1970 to explain the change in conference/division. Preferably in the relevant column for these.
• The note for 1982 should probably be included in the division & finish column instead of the reference column.
• Source review passes. All references appear to be properly formatted and reliable for the content being cited.

Good stuff ULPS, even if you did take an article I was going to eventually complete! Hey man im josh (talk) 15:26, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Hey man im josh: I think I got everything! And you'll get every other season FL, don't worry 😉 ULPS ^{(talk • contribs)} 03:47, 3 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Support. Hey man im josh (talk) 20:06, 3 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Shoot, I actually just found two issues @ULPS.

• Ref 17, please add |url-access=subscription to the reference.
• Ref 39, please add a published date

I won't withdraw my support because I'm confident you'll get these fixed. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:30, 4 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Comments by SounderBruce

• "NFL Commissioner" should be uncapped per MOS:JOBTITLE.
• The expansion team sentence is rather short and could be merged upstream; the link to 1966 should also be expanded out (perhaps to "1966 season") to avoid a MOS:EGG situation.
• I would switch the ordering of the paragraph to put the ownership history before the stadiums to keep mentions of Smith closer together.
  • At the same time, I think expanding a bit on the different stadiums would be helpful to readers.
• "The Falcons made it to two" could be "The Falcons have appeared in two" to avoid a "to two" situation.
• "losing both to" implies that both losses were to the Broncos.
• An explanation of which divisions the Falcons played in could help readers as well.
• Nothing to say about the table, except that I never knew the NFL had a Coastal Division. SounderBruce 07:52, 7 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  @SounderBruce: Got everything, except expanding on the stadiums. What info do you think I should put there? I was thinking things like super bowl appearances, but that may confuse people as those were not played at the stadium. ULPS ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:47, 20 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  A simple description of the stadiums would help explain why the team had moved; e.g. the current stadium has a retractable roof and the first one was outdoor and shared with baseball. SounderBruce 02:06, 22 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Comments from Gonzo_fan2007

• ULPS Can you put a space between the symbol and the text in the key? The hashtag, for example, is really hard to read.
• Use ((Win-loss record)) for all the win loss records in the text and table. You could delete Note b.
• The Notes shouldn't be in the "References" section. They are hidden and aren't references. They should be added in the table like Note c is.
• Note a should just be converted to inline text. Just state "by winning percentage" in the text.
• Ref 80 isn't archived.

That's all I got. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 19:26, 30 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Just gonna send a ping to @ULPS in case they missed this feedback. They're usually pretty good about responding quickly to feedback here. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:58, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Whoops I missed this, I'll get to it within a day or two :) ULPS ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:27, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
