Checking against GA criteria[edit]

To uphold the quality of Wikipedia:Good articles, all articles listed as Good articles are being reviewed against the GA criteria as part of the GA project quality task force. While all the hard work that has gone into this article is appreciated, unfortunately, as of September 13, 2009, this article fails to satisfy the criteria, as detailed below. For that reason, the article has been delisted from WP:GA. However, if improvements are made bringing the article up to standards, the article may be nominated at WP:GAN. If you feel this decision has been made in error, you may seek remediation at WP:GAR.

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
    This article is not "reasonably well written". The prose is rather poor with clumsy phrasing and poor grammar. I suggest a thorough copy-edit. It would be good to incorporate a musician infobox into the Korean person one.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    There are a number of dead links which have been tagged, some in the ELs; I assume good faith for the sources in Korean. The book which is referenced needs an ISBN
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    It struck me that there was no real detail of his life in occupied Europe during WWII. Was he regarded as collaborator? Why was he forced to leave Paris?
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

On hold for seven days for the issues mentioned above to be fixed. Major contributors and projects notified. Jezhotwells (talk) 23:17, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Recently, many GA/FAs are re-evaluated and this seems to be one of them. (I've been working to prevent from a FA delisting) I can replace dead links with other sources and confirm Korean sources, but I think native English speakers' help for proofreading is really required.--Caspian blue 23:33, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
WP:COMPOSERS are generally against using infoboxes in such articles. The Korean name infobox is fine, but I don't think it needs another. PC78 (talk) 23:57, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I found an archived link for the Yonhap article. No joy with the others, though. PC78 (talk) 18:40, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There has been a request for an extension for a further seven days. I will extend until 19 September. No serious harm is done if the article is delisted, it can always be re-nominated at WP:GAN when fixed. Jezhotwells (talk) 11:51, 8 September 2009 (UTC) The primary editor has suggested I delist [1] as they do not have time at present to address these issues, so de-listing.
