Observations

[edit]
GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
  • Please see MOS:REPEATLINK. There are a number of duplicate links and irrelevant links.
  • knowledge of Hebrew philology = over linking. We don't need links to Hebrew (nor philology) here, it is already stated he is a scholar revitalising the usage of Hebrew as a written language.
  • In 1787 he moved to Berlin, then the centre of the Haskalah movement. Over linking. We don't need a link to Berlin. Haskalah is already linked in the infobox.
  • became friends with the Me'assefim and → already linked in the lede
  • links to Syriac and Greek are superfluous
  • in Vienna as proofreader in the Hebrew presses → Vienna, proofreader, presses do not need links.
  • German revision of his Talmud by Salomon Jacob Cohen appeared in Berlin → Berlin does not need a link. Nor does Vilnius.
  • was translated into Italian by Leon Romani → Italian is a common word, does not need a link; ditto Russian in the same sentence.
  1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
  • and received a traditional religious education. This sentence links to Jewish education. The text should say this. Simply 'religious education' is misleading.
  • Good work on references.
  1. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  • Appropriate coverage of Ze'ev's contrbutions to Me'assefim and his role in the Haskalah revival of the Hebrew language.
  • Linking to Graf-Wellhausen is excellent, as it places Ze'ev most properly as a Hebrew critic using Historical criticism.
  • Jewish Virtual Library says that he was basically a failure as a poet?
  1. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  • Yes, NPOV is presented.
  1. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  • Article created on 90 November 2020;
  • 42 edits from 3 editors;
  • 168 page views last 90 days.
  • No edit wars, article is considered stable.
  1. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  • Judah Leib Ben-Ze'ev.png = in the public domain in its country of origin;
  • Ben Zeev Talmud.JPG = is in the public domain in its country of origin
  1. Overall:
  • This is a good article, not over-written, sharp and concise.
  • There are excessive links in the article; when these are corrected (and the education reference) the article would achieve Good Article status. --Whiteguru (talk) 08:04, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
