I shall be undertaking the review of this article against the Good Article criteria, per its nomination for Good Article status. ✽ Juniper§ Liege (TALK) 01:10, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
Quick fail criteria assessment
[edit]- The article completely lacks reliable sources – see Wikipedia:Verifiability.
- The topic is treated in an obviously non-neutral way – see Wikipedia:Neutral point of view.
- There are cleanup banners that are obviously still valid, including cleanup, wikify, NPOV, unreferenced or large numbers of fact, clarifyme, or similar tags.
- The article is or has been the subject of ongoing or recent, unresolved edit wars.
- The article specifically concerns a rapidly unfolding current event with a definite endpoint.
Article meets quick-fail criteria. Main review to follow. ✽ Juniper§ Liege (TALK) 01:16, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
Main review
[edit]- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
- Well written. Identified problems addressed.
- b (MoS):
- Conforms to manual of style.
- a (prose):
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references):
- Well referenced. However, the article is very dependent on the source by Cawkwell - this is the only major concern of the article. If possible, other sources should be introduced, even as supporting references. As there are a couple of other sources used in the article, it is not sufficient to fail, but the problem should be borne in mind for future improvement.
- b (citations to reliable sources):
- Citations are to third party publications.
- c (OR):
- No evidence of OR.
- a (references):
- It is broad in its scope.
- a (major aspects):
- Addresses major aspect of article subject matter.
- b (focused):
- Remains focused. No digressions.
- a (major aspects):
- It follows the neutral point of view policy:
-
- No issues concerning POV evident.
-
- It is stable:
- No edit wars etc.
- It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
- a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):
- Images are properly tagged and justified.
- b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
- Images are accompanied by contextual captions.
- a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):
- Overall:
- Pass/Fail: PASS ✽ Juniper§ Liege (TALK) 01:48, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
