GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:
    B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:
    Can the lead be expanded a bit to cover the article per MOS:LEAD? And could you change "After Freakley's first invasion of Iraq" to something that makes him sound less like Rambo?
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. Has an appropriate reference section:
    B. Citation to reliable sources where necessary:
    C. No original research:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:
    B. Focused:
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:
    B. Images are provided if possible and are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
I have modified the concerned text with this edit, is this better?--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 00:28, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That's fine. Now, if you can just expand the lead, and I can pass the article. Cheers! Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:32, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
How about this, I have added two sentences to the lead, and sectionalized the biography.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 18:11, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good. Passing now. Hawkeye7 (talk) 20:04, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
