Hi - would just like some on advice on how I'd go about improving this article to take it up to B rating? Cheers. -- Akitora (talk) 12:45, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article on Wesley College, Melbourne has been I believe it needs to be rerated as numerous changes and contributions have been made, can the reviewer please also leave some comments on the talk page so that further development of the article may be completed. Does it still deserve a B rating now? Thanks! 122.107.236.18 (talk) 07:52, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

coming along nicely though still B, lead needs some meat sustainability section even after reading not sure, needs more sourcing some section dont have sources, also though there appears to be a lot of sources its substancially from one source just listing different page numbers. Also the school ranking section at the end whats the purpose, needs to explained/expanded or removed. Gnangarra 15:16, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

thanks for that Gnanarra, we are now researching and updating the sources and citations needed, the school ranking listed below is inline with / also on all the other school pages listed, can you please update the discussion page to B class as it still says Start, can you also please rate the article on importance.

April 2008

I feel as though the article is very comprehensive on Chris Guccione. It deserves more than a start rating.121.210.116.130 (talk) 23:13, 21 April 2008 (UTC) Ive added citations to the article. Does it still deserve a B rating?[reply]

Its getting closer a coupl eof issues, citations need to be inline as per WP:CITE#HOW, personal life is irrelevant it should be about him ie DOB, where he grew up, education family, marriage etc. not about what actor he likes and his favourite meal. Gnangarra 17:58, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article on the Australian garage band The Vines. Last few days I've been putting a lot of work into it, found many sources (and am still going). I think it deserves more than a Start rating! If it's not GA material yet, please let me know what I can do. Would love to get there and beyond. At least a B? Hah! Who knows ;) Narcissus1x (talk) 11:33, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Definate B class, need more sourcing especially for the sections on periods since 2004, need an image in the infobox the last one was deleted. Gnangarra 08:55, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article on the Australian-born fine-art hyperrealist sculptor. I've added and described some additional works to the existing article. I think Mueck is an extremely important Australian artist, and would like the article assessed both for importance and quality under this project. --Drgrigg (talk) 23:00, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Start class article most of the points of interest are contained solely within the lead section, Gnangarra 08:49, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article on the Australian American Idol finalist for 2008. This article was not written by me, however it is very indepth and I feel it should be a B-Class article. - Cheers, Vicer Userpage | Talk 10:01, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is pretty good, but does not explain much about his own work eg a discography. So it is a start close to but not quite a B. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 05:43, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am relatively new at this and have created the Mount Pelion West article from scratch and have got it to a point where I am relatively happy with it but wanted some external assessment.SJS (talk) 04:38, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • start class - some useful content for those that know nothing on the topic. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 05:06, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Statement of possible coi - I have harrassed this editor for better standards of articles -
  • (1) Very useful would be the names of the water catchments/adjacent ranges or other geographical features - too many tasmanian mountains seem to exist stand alone
  • (2) Nothing about the name, who named it or when - again lack of historical context would not consider start class without those components
  • (3) Look at the Frenchmans Cap article - by no means a good article - but maybe some clues

G'day, I would like a reassessment on this article, I have updated the article with history of service and a new logo. I also moved it from BusLink to what it is now. I have tried to outline the whole bus company, not just the brand.- Cheers, Vicer Userpage | Talk 11:37, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]


I can't believe this does not have a rating on the importance scale, it's a very popular australian film. --Simpsons fan 66 02:55, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have whacked a low priority tag on it. Most films would rate a low. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 06:02, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

February 2008

I've done significant improvements to this artical, and I think it should be classified at least a "Start" class; it is no longer a stub. James Kanjo (talk) 05:13, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

yes you are correct it is a start class in my opinion. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:18, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

January 2008

I've made significant changes over the last 6-12 months and would like to know where it currently stands with an eye for further improvement. It currently has no rating. Cheers batobatobato (talk) 06:33, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have given it a B class as there is quite a good coverage. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:21, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the feedback, cheers batobatobato (talk) 07:27, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article has been extensively updated and detailed. I believe it should no longer be rated as Start-class on the quality scale. Also, given the number of Australian "firsts" associated with Williamstown, it could be rated more highly on the importance scale. Craig Rowley (talk) 10:46, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, I have upgraded it to a B. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:23, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I would appreciate some feedback comment on how far it off GA Status. It needs a quality scale and importance scale. The article has currently been given some care and attention to deliver accurate information that is of special interest to many other "Pentecostal Denomination" groups. Topsaint (talk) 13:16, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

sorry this is a long way off GA first thing I noticed is that only 12 of the 35 reference are in independent publications(some of those are duplicated). Why the US presidential seal, the British coat of arms and the Stone of Scone images they dont appear to be relevant to the article. Lead need to be broken into 3 paragraphs. Gnangarra 16:08, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ok made more changes, added independent publications where possible but difficult to find sources in every section. rewritten the article sections to link it up to the images. I broke up the lead in into three paragraphs. At least a starter or B-classed at best? maybe low or mid-importance at best?Topsaint (talk) 10:49, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I gave it a B rating, but it is still a fair way from GA. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:30, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fairly large and well-structured article, but still has no importance ratingfrom the Australia Wikiproject. Would appreciate an importance rating. CeeWhy2 (talk) 02:42, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

done as B/mid, mid was based on gun politics not having a long term consitant affect on australian politics unlike the US with the NRA. Gnangarra 16:02, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Would appreciate if someone on the Australian taskforce could assess and grade this article. Thanks. Spy007au (talk) 11:46, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

done b class/high also tag for QLD.NT and Aust Maritime, very interesting article I enjoyed the read Gnangarra 15:49, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How far away from a GA status do you think this article is? Dan arndt (talk) 04:56, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You need a fair use justification for the picture of the poster (Image:Stems-tour.jpg) being used on this page. Otherwise it stands a good chance. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:35, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey I'm nominating the Collingwood Football Club (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) for assessment in regards to importance. I personally think it should be of mid-importance as one of Australia's premier and most sporting clubs but it currently does not have a rating so anything will do. Jabso (talk) 10:10, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

rated as mid nice article even if it is about collingwood, I remove some peacock terms out the lead. Gnangarra 14:49, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

commisioner of the RFS for work since he the new man on the job in charge of one the states most succussful vulunteer networks.this article is a stub and really needs for to establish this as an article of a notable person.

rated as low aust added NSW=yes to tag. IMHO its struggling for notability more sourcing is needed especially independent ones. Gnangarra 14:54, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I've nominated Gough Whitlam (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) as a Good Article. If you think you can help with the review, please do so! haydn_likes_carpet (talk) 09:35, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

has been review for GA already, needs to improve sourcing. Gnangarra 14:50, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

December 2007

A former ACOTF effort. I have recently put some effort into updating the reference format I would appreciate an assessment of the article's importance and whether it is still a start class. I have also requested a peer review at Wikipedia:WikiProject History/Review/Peer review/Six o'clock swill Matilda talk 00:25, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rated as B-class, Interestingly no mention of WA Gnangarra 13:35, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
