ethnicity[edit]

I had reworded the article to state "Macedonian Canadian" which sounds better.Maktruth (talk) 04:22, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I removed "Macedonian Canadian". I can understand and fully respect that Macedonian people are rightfully proud of Ed Jovanovski. Nevertheless, given that he was born in Canada, he is fully Canadian. I do not see many significant links with Macedonia. If that were the case, saying Macedonian Canadian would be justified. Wayne Gretzky's grandfather was born in Poland, but if you note his bio, you will see that he is listed as a Canadian. No offence intended here to Macedonian people, but I feel that Ed is Canadian. —Preceding unsigned comment added by John Lincoln (talk • contribs) 05:11, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

Comments: Only a few minor issues:

"During the regular season, he was encouraged by Panthers management to play more conservatively than he was used to in the OHL." Not sure what it means by "more conservatively" here; I would assume that in the case of Jovanovski, he needed to be more defensive, but it really isn't clear.
"In November 1996, Jovanovski was suspended three games by the league." Is there any reason for the suspension?
"In 2001–02, Jovanovski scored a career-high 17 goals, ranking second in the NHL.[26] His 48 points ranked sixth in the NHL and was his highest total as a Canuck." Should clarify that those were the best totals for defenders.
"He finished with 33 points in 44 games for a career-high 0.75 points-per-game average." Should be referenced.
Even though he was injured, shouldn't the World Cup be listed in the medal table?

Just fix up those things and it will pass. Kaiser matias (talk) 18:03, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Addressed all the above issues with the exception of the three-game suspension in Nov 96. I couldn't find anything online specifying what it was. Would it be better to leave it out if it can't be specified? Orlandkurtenbach (talk) 20:40, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, found some detail.. just had to include paid articles in my search. All the detail needed in the paid article is in the free preview. Orlandkurtenbach (talk) 20:52, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good to me. Well done. Kaiser matias (talk) 01:01, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
