GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    Every sentence in the lead starts with "The". Please re-write the lead to eliminate this repetition. Please also re-write one of the captions so it does not look like a copy of the other. Under the section on "The band", as a reader, I fail to truly understand the band. Who are they? How many members are there? The credits list has a large amount of people, but nothing is mentioned in this section. I feel that this section needs to be expanded to include a better picture of the band.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    Article is properly referenced with reliable sources and has no original research.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    Article covers all major aspects and is focused.
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
    Article conforms to WP:NPOV.
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
    Article is stable.
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    Pictures are properly tagged but I would like one of the captions to be reworded so it doesn't resemble the other caption that closely.
  7. Overall: A few minor issues have to be fixed before we can move this article forward. I will allow up to 7 days for these issues to be resolved. – SMasters (talk) 08:47, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks for fixing the issues, although you did not address my concerns for the lead. I have fixed my original concern and have expanded it slightly as I felt it was a bit too short for a lead. Now, I am satisfied that the article meets all the requirements for a GA, and am happy to pass it. Well done. – SMasters (talk) 03:23, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
