Result: Fails GA criteria 3 and possibly 4. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 22:49, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

GA from 2012. I feel as if this article fails the broadness category since this article has not been updated and fails to mention many important events in the country's political history such as the 2017 Zimbabwe Coup amongst others. Onegreatjoke (talk) 22:44, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately this article has not been updated and it would be a non trivial amount of work in order to bring it up to standard. It is at the edge of my expertise and outside of my time commitments right now and so it would only make sense for it to be reassessed until it can be fixed at a later time.
