Talk:Jimmy Wales/GA3

GA Sweeps (on hold)

This article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force in an effort to ensure all listed Good articles continue to meet the Good article criteria. In reviewing the article, I have found there are some issues that may need to be addressed.

The lead is too short. It should be 2-3 paragraphs long.

I will check back in no less than seven days. If progress is being made and issues are addressed, the article will remain listed as a Good article. Otherwise, it may be delisted (such a decision may be challenged through WP:GAR). If improved after it has been delisted, it may be nominated at WP:GAN. Feel free to drop a message on my talk page if you have any questions, and many thanks for all the hard work that has gone into this article thus far.

This article also has stability problems. It changes significantly, sometimes week by week and is a constant source of edit warring. It's verifiability and neutrality are also in question.... at least in regards to the sections Roles of creators and Wikipedia biography. Does it really meet the criteria of a good article? 68.117.211.187 (talk) 16:45, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Added cleanup notice on main page in order to promote edits that will preserve Good Article status. Jhurlburt (talk) 16:57, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

I removed the cleanup notice, because the reason it was put in the article ("to promote edits that will preserve Good Article status") is taken away by delisting the article. And otherwise the notice could be added to all articles that are not of GA status. – Ilse@ 01:17, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

As I can observe the lead has not been expanded. In addition a clean-up tag was inserted into the article. I feel that I have no other option except delisting this article. Ruslik (talk) 12:34, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
