'''Oppose''' - An interesting article that I enjoyed reading, but further copy-editing is needed. Here are some examples:
:*''It plays its home professional games in the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in downtown Madrid since 1947.'' - The tense is wrong.
:*''The club is the world's richest in football (€351m) in terms of revenue and the second most valuable (worth over €950m as of 2008).'' - some attention needed here.
:*''After moving between some minor grounds'' - between?
:*''Real Madrid had the lead going into the last match of the season.'' - "were in the lead"?
:*''On 2 July 1978, the one to whom credit can be given for transforming Real Madrid from the second most successful club in Madrid into the most successful in Spain, and one of the most successful in Europe, club president Santiago Bernabéu passed away.'' - is hopelessly convoluted.
:*''rezoned'' - ??
:*''a total of'' - just one example of much redundancy.
These are just a few example of many problems. A fresh pair of eyes is needed; the whole article needs attention. ] ] 09:31, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Oppose - An interesting article that I enjoyed reading, but further copy-editing is needed. Here are some examples:

  • It plays its home professional games in the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in downtown Madrid since 1947. - The tense is wrong.
  • The club is the world's richest in football (€351m) in terms of revenue and the second most valuable (worth over €950m as of 2008). - some attention needed here.
  • After moving between some minor grounds - between?
  • Real Madrid had the lead going into the last match of the season. - "were in the lead"?
  • On 2 July 1978, the one to whom credit can be given for transforming Real Madrid from the second most successful club in Madrid into the most successful in Spain, and one of the most successful in Europe, club president Santiago Bernabéu passed away. - is hopelessly convoluted.
  • rezoned - ??
  • a total of - just one example of much redundancy.

These are just a few example of many problems. A fresh pair of eyes is needed; the whole article needs attention. Graham Colm 09:31, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
