Last updated: 08:08, 25 August 2023 (UTC) by Argenti Aertheri

See what the criteria are and what they are not

1) Well-written

1a) the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct
1b) it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation

2) Verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check

2a) it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline
2b) reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose)
2c) it contains no original research
2d) it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism

3) Broad in its coverage

3a) it addresses the main aspects of the topic
3b) it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style)

4) Neutral:

4) Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each

5) Stable:

5) Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute

6) Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio

6a) media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content
6b) media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions

Overall:

Icons

Icons for use with {{GAIconList}}, there are three new ones here, highlighted in italics

  • y, yes, pass, good, ok, k, +, aye all produce a pass symbol:
  • n, no, fail, bad, nk, -, nay all produce a fail symbol:
  • ?, ??, ???, dunno, question, huh all produce a question symbol:
  • wtf produces Wikipedia's "I am out of my comfort zone" symbol:
  • hold and on hold produce the on hold symbol:
  • neu, neutral and und produce the neutral symbol:
  • pos, likely, prob, p and probably produce the probably symbol:
  • unlikely, u and un produce the unlikely symbol:
  • irrelevant, i and irr produce the unlikely symbol:
  • Anything else, including no input produces the unassessed symbol
Features
  • Icons are all parallel down the left side, allowing you to easily check if you missed anything.
  • Three additional icons: probably, unlikely, and irrelevant. I got annoyed that there wasn't a decent way to mark your progress with a review, so I added icons for when the article is probably going to pass that criteria, and for when it's unlikely to pass. I also added an icon for when the criterion just doesn't apply, for example media licensing is irrelevant if there's no media.
  • The default icon is the unassessed symbol, because if it’s anything else it complicates tracking what you haven't assessed.
  • Separate section at the bottom for comments, because they're easier to write, and easier to read, if they aren't scattered around the template.
  • The comments section is just a plain text field, you can use whatever wikitext you want without worrying about breaking anything.
  • Includes the actual text of the GA criteria as it exists when you start the review, including links.
  • Includes links to what the criteria are, and what they are not.
  • Automatically includes user name and time of last edit, which can be removed by removing '''Last updated:''' {{{last-update|{{#time:H:i, j F Y|{{REVISIONTIMESTAMP|{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}}} (UTC)}}} by {{REVISIONUSER}} from the top of the substituted template.
