Starting review. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:03, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
Quick fail criteria assessment
- The article completely lacks reliable sources – see Wikipedia:Verifiability.
References need to be properly formatted, please read and understand WP:Cite. Bare html refrences are not suitable for a GA. There is an outstanding citation needed tag. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:18, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- The topic is treated in an obviously non-neutral way – see Wikipedia:Neutral point of view.
OK
- There are cleanup banners that are obviously still valid, including cleanup, wikify, NPOV, unreferenced or large numbers of fact, clarifyme, or similar tags.
- See above Jezhotwells (talk) 21:18, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- The article is or has been the subject of ongoing or recent, unresolved edit wars.
- OK
- The article specifically concerns a rapidly unfolding current event with a definite endpoint.
- not applicable.
- further to above the acronyms such as MRSWS and PGW need explanation when first used. The grammar is poor - the article is not reasonably well written. It does not really follow WP:MOS. statements such as "Below is some more in depth information on the MRSWS." are not encyclopaediac. I am quickfailing this article. Please bring back when expanded, rewritten and properly cited. At present this is merely start class. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:18, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

GA Review edit
- This review is transcluded from Talk:C14 Timberwolf/GA2. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.
- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
b (MoS):
- Right, let's start at the top. The lead is fragmentary and needs to be spliced into a couple of small paragraphs, not several sentences on their own
- It also reads like a sales brochure and needs to be toned down and made to sound more professional
- The small sections on each part of the weapon are poorly written and lack punctuation - in fact, so does most of the article.
- a (prose):
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- Is this really all that is available for this weapon? I realize that it is new, but surely more can be found on it? Some of the sections are wafer-thin
- Numerous areas are uncited, and all of the sections on each part of the weapon can be coalesced into a single section
- a (references):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- Seems to lack extensive coverage and is practically a coatrack of an article without more information. It is at least focused/
- a (major aspects):
- It follows the neutral point of view policy.
- Fair representation without bias:
- Fair representation without bias:
- It is stable.
- No edit wars, etc.:
- No edit wars, etc.:
- 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):
- There must be images of the weapon available - from official Canadian armed forces websites and the like.
- a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):
- Overall:
- Pass/Fail:
- Pass/Fail:
No real effort seems to have been made to improve this article since its last review in May. Large sections are uncited, gramar is terrible, as is punctuation, and there is little to no detail in numerous sections. Images, although not required, would also be useful and surely easy to acquire. Thus, I am quickfailing the article.
