Checking against GA criteria

[edit]
GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
    "[I]n the few remarks made by Mac Da Thó to his visitors, all his previous train of though, all his cunning and address, are suggested in a few brief words intended by him to hide his true designs from his guests, while suggesting to ourselves his hidden intention." Is though a typo? I would have assumed thought!  Done
    The tale was apparently also popular in later times, ...was also apparently... would read better.  Done
    The red wikilink to Mag nAilbi should be added to the first instance of this place name a few lines above.  Done
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    Assume good faith for all offline sources.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    Thorough, clear and not unnecessarily detailed.
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  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):
    Correctly tagged, captioned and licensed.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    This is very good, just a few minor points to be addressed. On hold for seven days. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 00:25, 1 July 2010 (UTC) Done[reply]
    Good work, an excellent and interesting article, well worthy of GA status. I suggest you get a peer review and then consider going to to WP:FAC. Passing as GA. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 00:56, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Wow, that has to be my least troublesome GA nomination on record. Minor editorial fixes here per above. "Though" was indeed a typo for "thought". Thanks for the review. --Grimhelm (talk) 00:51, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
