Regarding recent GA fail

Hey, would it be possible to know what the original research issues and non-free image use issues are there with the article ? -- Sohom (talk) 10:15, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As for the original research, there are not enough sources for the article's length, so an automatic WP:NOR violation, and as for the non-free image use, it's something else also mentioned in the same criteria title. Equalwidth (talk) 10:42, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I respectfully disagree with your quick-fail assessment here, I do not think the number of references has anything to do with the no original research guidelines and I believe that all the images are correctly tagged and have been released under the respective licenses by the authors as verified via VRT.
Also to my understanding while there are certain aspects that are not covered by the article and the prose is probably not to the best standard, I do not think it is far enough away to warrant a quick fail.
Based on this, I will be renominating the article. Sohom (talk) 12:05, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I’ll still fail it but I will take note of what you said Equalwidth (talk) 13:27, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It would be great if you could expand on why that would be the case, Thanks :) Sohom (talk) 14:13, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I would second this. I was surprised to see through watching the GA nominations page an article being failed and then re-nominated in such a short space of time, so I went to have a look, and this really does not strike me as an adequate review. I'm experienced at both writing and reviewing good articles, and it is not at all clear to me why you have marked this article as failing for instance criterion 2a ("it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline"), 2c ("it contains no original research": contrary to your statement above there is no rule that if an article does not contain some number of sources it is automatically original research, and at any rate it has what looks like a very reasonable number of inline references to me), and 6 (I have no idea what your objection is to the only image in the article, but it is tagged as being CC-BY-SA on Commons and the caption looks fine, so you really need to explain the issue if you are going to mark the article as failing on that criterion).
