GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:
    Lead had minor spelling/grammar which I fixed... The tenure section doesn't meet the criteria. "Tsongas is an advocate for LGBT rights and has cosponsored the Respect for Marriage Act, she also voted for the Don't Ask, Don't Tell Repeal Act of 2010," is an example of this.
    B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:
    No problems here.
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. Has an appropriate reference section:
    B. Citation to reliable sources where necessary:
    C. No original research:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:
    Could go deeper into her family life, especially considering her husband's position. It could have gone deeper into the elections. Her tenure and political position sections are jumbled together.
    B. Focused:
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:
    The elections and tenure section seem to give bias toward Tsongas- it showed Clinton's praise, as well as her seeming foresight into Anthony Weiner's resignation and Elizabeth Warren's election.
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:
    B. Images are provided if possible and are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    I will check back in 7 days to see if it now meets the criteria.

Hopefully I didn't screw up the formatting. The only problem I have now is with some grammar. I will check back later today to see if that has been fixed.

I now think it meets all of the criteria! Very nice work! For further improvement, I would suggest adding one more picture of her and her husband (or her husband alone), and/or one of her earlier congressional years. The tenure section still could be expanded as well. PrairieKid (talk) 19:13, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
