GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

1. Is it reasonably well written?

   A. Prose is "clear and concise", without copyvios, or spelling and grammar errors:

a. #:: No copyvios detected, only a Wikipedia mirror.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 01:59, 20 January 2015 (UTC) b. #:: "Interviews have revealed lyricist, composer and singer Rou Reynolds' political views.[4]" - Which are what?--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC) c. #:: "there is now 'ongoing Orwellian overseas conflicts, riots in England's major cities, endless austerity programmes the end date of which stretch years into the distance'.[5]" - Shouldn't this be "there are now?" If this is merely a difference between British and American English, then ignore this comment.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC) d. #:: The "rap" link in the introductory sentence in "Styles and themes" should link to hip hop music.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC) e. #:: "This is often called as electronicore." - What is? Blending other styles with post-hardcore and metal, or blending electronic music styles with metal and post-hardcore?--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC) f. #:: "On 12 February 2012 they played a low-key..." - try a less colloquial term, such as "subdued," instead of "low-key."--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC) g. #:: "Iain Moffat of The Fly said about the album, 'Disenchantment should always be this spellbinding.'[29]" - perhaps re-write as "Iain Moffat of The Fly said of the album that 'Disenchantment should always be this spellbinding.'[29]"--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

1. B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:

   "Tracks" should be made a sub-section of "Styles and themes," as it discusses the styles and lyrics of individual tracks.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?

   A. Has an appropriate reference section:

   Several citations are just bare urls.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:42, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

   The following are dead links: http://www.buzzinemusic.com/interviews/music-interview-rob-rolfe-rou-reynolds-enter-shikari-flash-flood-colour-01272012; http://www.buzzinemusic.com/reviews/music-review-enter-shikari-flash-flood-colour-01192012; http://www.upmagazine.nl/2012/01/20/enter-shikari-is-anti-politiek/; http://punkmusic.about.com/od/interviews/a/An-Interview-With-Rory-Clewlow-Of-Enter-Shikari.html; http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b017t5ln; http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/1660905; http://jam.canoe.ca/Music/Charts/ALBUMS.html. I'd recommend using Internet Archive and WebCite to look for archived versions of the urls.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:42, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

   B. Citations to reliable sources, where necessary:

   Well-cited, though many of the links are dead, as I noted above.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:42, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

   C. No original research:

   All content is verifiable.

3. Is it broad in its coverage?

   A. Major aspects:

   Covers all aspects of the album, but stays broad without excessive detail.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

   B. Focused:

   Focused on the album, no extraneous material.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

4. Is it neutral?

   Fair representation without bias:

   Neutral, fair presentation. Full range of critical reception is given, with appropriate weight applied.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

5. Is it stable?

   No edit wars, etc:

   Recent history shows no vandalism, edit wars, or other disruptions.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 01:59, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?

   A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:

   Non-free content is used appropriately, with appropriate fair-use rationales.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 01:59, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

   B. Images are provided if possible and are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:

   Album covers are indispensable to the subject, concert photo is relevant. Captions are suitable.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 01:59, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

7. Overall: Several prose issues, some bare urls, and dead links.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 02:42, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Resolved, passed.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 21:09, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

1. Pass or Fail:

• All amendments have been met. Jonjonjohny (talk) 22:59, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

• Jonjonjohny: Points "c" and "f" in my review have not been addressed, and neither has my comment about the "Tracks" section. Also, italicize The Fly

• 3family6:Point "c" is indeed the difference between Brit & American English. And sorry, I have corrected the other issues. Jonjonjohny (talk) 20:05, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

Okay, good to go.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 21:09, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
