Chocolate

The article is currently rated as a GA, and I would like to know anything I can do to bring it up to FA status. Cool Blue^{talk to me} 23:47, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

I just have a little thing to point out, but it may be something wrong with my knowledge rather than something that is missing from the article. I remember hearing that the finished chocolate is much more valuable than cocoa itself, however the African countries cannot produce their own chocolate for export because of high tarrifs placed on them by the developed world - ie forcing them to export the low cost raw produce (cocoa) rather than exporting the finished product (chocolate) at higher prices. Not sure how accurate this is, but if true perhaps it deserves mention here or at least the history sub-article? (Of course my memory is hazy and I could be wrong). I do not have the time today, but I will try to come back for a fuller review later.--Konstable 08:18, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

A few things that have been brought up at the Good Article Review for this article - the lead doesn't meet WP:LEAD, you could add more wikilinks to relevant topics, every {{fact}} tag needs to be taken care of with a reference to a reliable source, and your citations aren't full enough (per WP:CITE#Full citations) and are inconsistently formatted. -Malkinann 21:37, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

I think it might be useful to note here that the article really needs a section which expands on the last paragraph of the lead, discussing chocolate in society. This would also be a place to discuss the tarriff issues mentioned above. Geometry guy 13:06, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
