This request is part of the work going on at [[Wikipedia:Unreviewed featured articles/sandbox]]. Editors who are still active and nominated articles for FA between 2004 and 2011, are being asked to review them and check they still meet the current [[Wikipedia:Featured article criteria|featured article criteria]]. This is an informal process, without deadlines, designed to ensure those articles with the FA star still exemplify our very best work. I have updated, checked links and copyright status of images etc. I feel fairly confident this article still meets most of the FA criteria; however my prose tends to let me down on occasions. Therefore I would appreciate a copy edit.— [[User:Rodw|Rod]] <sup>[[User talk:Rodw|talk]]</sup> 08:12, 26 July 2015 (UTC) |

July 2015
Scottish Labour Party leadership election, 2014
Requesting a copy edit for this recently promoted GA which I'd like to take forward to FAC. A copy edit was done in March, but more information has been added since then, so it could do with another quick look over. This is Paul (talk) 15:31, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
- Working. I did this one back in March, so I'll check the added text and give it a once-over to find the mistakes I left behind a few months ago. – Jonesey95 (talk) 22:24, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
Russian nationalism
Any help that you could give to this article would be very much appreciated. – Zumoarirodoka (talk) 16:20, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
- This is tagged as Start class, but may become better than that. --DThomsen8 (talk) 16:45, 11 July 2015 (UTC)

1999–2000 S.L. Benfica season
Needs copy edit for readability, consistency and grammar.--Threeohsix (talk) 21:12, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Only Girl (In the World)
Three failed FACs. I thought it was really well written but apparently not. I followed "S&M" which is an FA of mine (after 9 failed attempts), but that was nearly 2 years ago, so I guess times change. Ultimately want to nominate this for a fourth (and hopefully final) time. — Calvin999 18:52, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
Better (Kim Hyung-jun song)
The article was nominated in DYK and it is suggested that a copyedit is needed for some prose and grammar issues. Thanks a bunch for the (future) help! 001Jrm (talk) 21:29, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
Wrestle Kingdom 9
Current GA article. A "more thorough copyedit" was suggested at peer review before nomination for FA. Thank you and have a nice day. starship.paint ~ KO 03:49, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
Little Annie Fanny
This article has been approved for GA and DYK. FA is next. I greatly respect and appreciate this group; thanks in advance for your copyediting! Prhartcom (talk) 19:46, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Lynn Bomar
Already GA. Would like another set of eyes to brush it up, perhaps hopes of even higher rating. Cake (talk) 20:53, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
- Partly done I don't know how to add the reference to the second (newly formed) blockquote in the section "Football" in the larger section Lynn Bomar#Vanderbilt University. Also, I stopped copyediting after a while because my eyes were glazing over with all the sports details. Someone else will have to take over. CorinneSD (talk) 00:52, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
Bicycle kick
Fun article to read, if you like association football (soccer) history, tactics, and skills. Even if you know nothing of the sport (or don't like it "just because you don't"), I guarantee that (after the copy-edit) you'll leave with a new-found appreciation for this game. My specific request:
- Please change the language of the written work to "British English".
- Please improve the flow and general grammar of the text, specially parts that seem to be repetitive.
- Any other general improvements and suggestions for improvement are welcome.
The plan is to follow the GA and FA process after the copy-edit. Thanks!--MarshalN20 Talk 19:06, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
Nina Davuluri
I have nominated the article for a GA. Since it will probably be awhile before the article is reviewed, I would appreciate it if someone would go through and clean it up where needed. Thanks in advance.- Classicfilms (talk) 17:05, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
- Note - I just noticed the requirement that we nominate an article for a copy edit prior to being nominated for a G.A. I removed the article from the GAN list and will restore it after a copy edit is completed. Thanks.-Classicfilms (talk) 17:10, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

The Wanderers (1979 film)
As I am currently working towards achieving GA status for this article, I require a good copy-editor to help me in my quest. The 'pre-production' section is what needs the most copy-editing, but the whole article will benefit too! I would appreciate if someone with previous GA experience can help me with this. Thanks!

Poorly written BLP, not much more than a stub. Example: "The play juxtaposes an adult who thinks he wants to have a child with the man's 10-year-old self and relationship with his mother." It was rated as a starter, but I'm thinking it's not much more than a stub. Needs more eyes. Atsme📞📧 04:49, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
List of accolades received by Magadheera
I have finished my work related to this list which i am aiming to bring to FL status. A good copy-edit shall make the FLC-process hassle-free. Regards, Pavanjandhyala (talk) 15:36, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

This article is currently a GA nominee. I have put a lot of work into this article, and while I am mostly satisfied with prose, I would appreciate a good copy-edit to polish the article to top shape and make the GA nomination hassle free. Thanks in advanced, DAP388 (talk) 17:28, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

Kill the Irishman
This is a certified Good article, so there are no problems of great concern. However, since I have add more (relevant) information to the article, I would be grateful if someone could just have some patience and run through the article with a fine tooth comb, because the last thing I would want to do is put the article's GA status on the line when adding more information to the article (especially since I worked so hard for the GA recognition). Thanks!

Lucky and Squash
I intend to submit this article for good status and I think that it would be better prepared if it first received an independent copyedit. Neelix (talk) 21:23, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

In response to Rachel Green promotion to GA, I changed the layouts and removed some details. Therefore, another copy editing is needed. --George Ho (talk) 05:47, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
Racism in the LGBT community
Rated "stub class," but I think that this article has the potential to do better if you could give a few helping hands over there. Thank you so much for your help in advance! Zumoarirodoka (talk) 15:53, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

North American Man/Boy Love Association
Yes, yes I am sorry that THIS had to be the request but the article has some serious WP:WEASEL issues. It seems that "someone" has tried to steer the article in a direction that would wrongly convey a direct connection between homosexuality and paedophilia. It also seems to base the whole gay rights movement on NAMBLA. For informations sake there is another editor working hard on the page and he is doing a great job so I would take a look into that. You can note him on the talk page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:North_American_Man/Boy_Love_Association#Homosexuality_should_not_be_the_topic_here) I'd greatly appreciate that someone ensure this article is actually keeping on topic and not sliding towards making unreferenced or unverifiable implications. Thanks a bunch guys... I have to say this now... I'm sorry about the topic. :) olowe2011 (talk) 05:34, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- On hold. I think the above amounts to a content issue; but since the article is currently undergoing development I'm putting this request on hold; see the discussion on the REQ talk page. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 21:18, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
