GA Review

[edit]

Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch
Hi. I am reviewing your article for GA. I have made a few minor copy edits.

Comments
  • The only major problem I see so far with the article is the lead. Per WP:LEAD, the lead should summarize all major parts of the article. The lead of this article leaves out any mention of most of the article contents.
  • Do you think it is relevant to mention that von Trapp was famous in American newspapers because of the Sound of Music? I can see some mention in a footnote of his connection to the Sound of Music, but to many readers, his fame via American newspapers as a character in the Sound of Music will likely have no relevance.
    • Perhaps you can help me make the point more clearly in the article. The mention of American newspapers was in relation to being known, by name, as the Austro-Hungarian submarine captain that sank, Léon Gambetta, a large French warship. (I only specified American because I don't have access to or knowledge of if he were known in, say, the UK). — Bellhalla (talk) 18:30, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
