First reading

[edit]
  • "he instead went to into teaching." - extra word here.
  • "After over a decade in education, Allen ..." - this is rather an odd way of expressing it, being rather different in meaning to "After a decade in full-time education, B left with no qualifications"!
  • "In 2005, he was elected to a second five-year term." - I assume this refers to the second of the two offices mentioned in the previous sentence?
  • "In July 2008, then Governor-General of Jamaica Sir Kenneth O. Hall indicated that he wished to step down due to declining health." - Some commas needed.
  • Did Allen respond to the controversy generated by his appointment?
  • The article contains no images. Are there any available?
  • The user who nominated this article at GAN has gone on an extended wikibreak, and despite my sending him an email, has not edited for ten weeks, so I have made the suggested minor changes to the article myself. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:19, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

GA criteria

[edit]
  • The article is well written and complies with MOS guidelines on prose and grammar, structure and layout.
  • The article uses a number of reliable third-party sources, and makes frequent citations to them. I do not believe it contains original research.
  • The article covers the main aspects of the subject and remains focussed.
  • The article is neutral.
  • Copyright violations were removed in April 2014 and the article was rewritten by the nominator. It is stable.
  • It is a pity that no appropriately licensed image of Patrick Allen is available.
