- Result: Delist Consensus here to delist, with verifiability being a major issue AIRcorn (talk) 08:40, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
This article was promoted in 2010 and has not been reviewed since. It is in better shape than Scotland when it was delisted earlier this year, but there are significant problems with the GA criteria. The biggest issue is verifiability: just look at the cleanup tags on the article and unsourced statements. Lesser concerns are that the lede does not meet MOS:LEDE, and the overreliance on official sources for things like the economy may be an issue with neutrality. I am willing to work on improving the article, but it's a monumental task and without a lot of work this article will not meet the GA criteria. Fiamh (talk, contribs) 08:17, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
Comment:: I would have thought if the nominator showed some actual willingness to improve the article they would have done more than just one small citation fix, instead of doing what seems like drive-by tagging with a load of citation missing tags. It might have been a courtesy to discuss this with some of the most prolific editors before starting this request. Right now I have too many other things going on to devote time to this. ww2censor (talk) 11:14, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
- Ww2censor, if the article does not meet GA criteria it will have to be delisted. It does not matter who has edited it. GA reassessment can be done by non-involved editors. buidhe 00:15, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
- Definitely delist in this condition. It's a long way from meeting criteria 2 for Wikipedia:Verifiability. The whole section on politics is almost entirely uncited! There are also major sourcing lapses under history and culture, and the economic history section has been tagged for a while.Homemade Pencils (talk) 00:41, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
