Result: List: Article's GA status has been endorsed. Peer review may be an appropiate venue in which to seek additional feedback. ЭLСОВВОLД talk 23:56, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like another review of the article. It was never properly nominated, and the user who did a quick copyedit of the article listed it as a GA. I have no comment on whether it should stay or not. I'd just like a proper review. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 00:08, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I didn't do a quick copyedit - Actually I carefully did look over the article, and it meets all criteria. - Milk's Favorite Cookie 23:44, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Endorse pass: I have no problems with Milk's Favorite Cookie listing this as a GA. It's well-sourced and cited (apart from the lead, but these claims are backed up and cited in article body), the prose is generally good, it follows the MoS as far as GA criteria are concerned, is well wikilinked, NPOV, covers its subject, and has no apparent copyright issues. The only (very) minor points I noticed was the position of "Hurricane Dennis 2005 damage.jpg", which should not be really left-aligned under a level 2 heading, and the inconsistency and formatting in some of the times given ("UTC" is both in parentheses and not, and a colon should separate hours and minutes - see WP:MOSTIME). Nice article ;) EyeSerenetalk 08:25, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Although the prose requirements are lower than at FA, it might be advantageous to go over the prose once more. Some issues from the lead include: "$1.5 billion dollars (2005 USD)" (do we need to be told the currency three times?) and "Top wind gusts topped out" (perhaps "peaked" instead of "topped out"?)

  • Keep listed As the author, I don't see any major problems that should prevent this from staying at GA status. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 16:06, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Not arguing about the passing/not passing of this article, but shouldn't we kind of insist for those that are reviewing to provide more information than a simple "yes" or "no"/"pass" or "fail" review of articles. I mean, no article is perfect, and Milk's Favorite Cookie certainly could have provided a bit more information regarding his review and could have certainly provide SOME feedback or optional additions/changes to the article to even perhaps help push it towards FA status. If you took the time to thoroughly review an article, you should also take the time to at least jot down a few notes. Just my opinion. will381796 (talk) 03:26, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
