Nunavut[edit]

I want this article to eventually becom featured. I may have a long way to go. Maybe not. Whatever the case, I need to know what else to improve it. 11kowrom 16:26, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

  • While it is not a state, I think you might benefit by changing this article to conform to guidelines at WP:STATE.
  • Per WP:MOS#Headings, headings generally should not repeat the title of the article. For example, if the article was Ferdinand Magellan, instead of using the heading ==Magellan's journey==, use ==Journey==.
  • Per WP:CONTEXT and WP:MOSDATE, years, decades, and centuries without full dates generally should not be linked. For example, January 2006 should not be linked, instead change it to January 2006. Also, please note WP:BTW and WP:CONTEXT, which state that years with full dates should be linked. For example, February 28, 2006, should be come February 28, 2006.
  • Per WP:MOSNUM, at Units of measurement, numbers with SI units of measure should have conversions in US customary units and vice versa. These conversions should keep to similar values of precision. For example, "the Moon is 380,000 kilometres (240,000 mi) from Earth". Note that the converted unit of measure uses a standard abbreviation, while the source unit is spelled out in the text.
  • Per WP:MOSNUM, there should be a no-break space -   between a number and the unit of measurement. For example, instead of 18mm, use 18 mm, which when you are editing the page, should look like: 18 mm.
  • Per WP:MOSNUM, please spell out source units of measurements in text; for example, "the Moon is 380,000 kilometres (240,000 mi) from Earth.
  • There are a few sections that are too short and that should be either expanded or merged. "People" is/are a bit short.
  • This article is a bit list-weighty; in other words, some of the lists should be converted to prose (paragraph form).
  • The article also needs a bit of cleanup; for example, it isn't acceptable to have "10 Largest Municipalities by population" and "Alternative map from Nunavut Government website (shows regions)" just right in the middle of the article (incorporate the former into the table, and the latter into the external links section)
