Talk:2007 AerianTur-M Antonov An-26 crash

GA Nomination Passed, 28 February 2007

Whilst this article is rather short, I feel it covers all aspects of the good article criteria. The prose is well structured and clear; it is NPOV and fully referenced (I did add a {{fact}} tag to a claim in the lead; however, there are sources contained within the main body of the article. I was going to link an inline citation there [as it is a pretty big claim to make], however, I couldn't figure it out - if someone could fix that, it would be perfect). It seems to cover all the main aspects of the crash, although I think the section about the response from the Islamic Army could (and should) be expanded. Of the two images used, one is free and the other seems to fall into 'fair use' guidelines. There are a lot of red links in the 'investigation' section - those articles should either be created or made into plain text. There are also some minor MOS issues (i.e. the way the inline references are spaced) that I will fix myself. Veesicle (Talk) (Contribs) 15:58, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

OK, I will bear that in mind for future work to the article. All redlinks bar one are, however, now directed to new stubs and the major claim in the lead is now sourced. Blood Red Sandman Open Up Your Heart - Receive My EviLove 18:42, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

GA Reassessment

This discussion is transcluded from Talk:2007 Balad aircraft crash/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.

GA Sweeps: Pass

As part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the GA criteria. I went through the article and made various changes, please look them over. I believe the article currently meets the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article. Altogether the article is well-written and is still in great shape after its passing in 2007. Continue to improve the article making sure all new information is properly sourced and neutral. I would recommend updating the investigation section and the access dates of the sources. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I have updated the article history to reflect this review. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 00:09, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Result: No use in beating about the bush waiting for an inactive editor to miraculously show up. Consensus to delist. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:07, 9 January 2023 (UTC)

An article made a GA back in 2007. Though this was nominated for GAR request by an IP, after checking through the article, the numerous uncited statements are bad enough for me to open this GAR. The main problem i've noticed is the uncited statements that should be addressed. Onegreatjoke (talk) 18:55, 6 January 2023 (UTC)

Agreed that as stands the article has a lot of problems - most of the uncited statements are due to the removal of Newsblaze as a depreciated source [1]. The article is also very dated - it refers to the investigation being ongoing (apparently in September 2007), but nothing since that.Nigel Ish (talk) 12:07, 7 January 2023 (UTC)

I took a look and did some minor clean up. This page is a cluster. I did some searching on a specific quote and all I found was Newsblaze and 911 Truth movement as citations. The original review is very symbolic of early Wikipedia and wouldn't fly by today's standards. Virtually every addition post 2009 has kept uncited info that I am either unable to find or unwilling to invest the time into. It should also be noted that the original reviewer is long since banned and the nominator is inactive as of 2020. I'll @Blood Red Sandman: just in case they happen to notice this. I am of the mind that we should Delist and be done with it. 🏵️Etrius ( Us) 00:50, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
