thread_title: Okay

message: Here we go again. i have decided to review all New York Giants articles that you put forward for review. BTW, if you didn't already know (from my user page), my fav. team is New England Patriots. To the review
* Sentence 1 violates Show, don't tell policy. i think it will be simpler to leave it as "The New York Giants, an American football team of the National Football League (NFL)was founded by businessman and bookmaker Tim Mara with an investment of US$500'
**You're allowed to use appropriate descriptive terms in the lead; the lead is a summary of the article. See the second sentence of Michael Jordan, an article I'm the main editor on and which passed FAC in March. As long as the information is backed up by sources in the article you're allowed to summarize in the lead. If you were saying something that could be perceived as POV it would be a problem (like "Jordan is the greatest player of all time" etc). Everything here in the lead is supported by sources and statistics, and nothing is controversial: at least from the historical sources I've read. Quadzilla99 19:32, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Disagree. Nowhere except the early 1920s do you have info on "a financially turbulent history" for the organization. Also, with respect to MJ - i dont have issue with 'Widely considered one of the greatest basketball players of all time, he became one of the most effectively marketed athletes of his generation and was instrumental in popularizing the NBA (National Basketball Association) around the world in the 1980s and 1990s.' but have an issue with the statement 'Jordan is one of the most marketed sports figures in history.' in the main article.

message: Congrats on the DYK? Nice to have an American sports article on the front page. Great work for a new article, you can tell a lot of work went into this. I fixed some grammar and wording issues but that's to be expected given its only a couple of days old.  Tayquan hollaMy work 04:14, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
