Length

edit

I understand this article is rather short, but I have seen several other articles of shorter and similar lengths passed for GA status recently (I can list a few, should this be necessary.) So please take this into account when reviewing, as length is not included in the good article criteria. Cheers, Qst (talk) 22:15, 21 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Length is fine. I'm putting it on hold because it's really close. It just needs a few more little things:
  1. Be sure to specify the source of the image you use on the image's fair use rationale.
  2. This sentence is confusing: Claire, the youngest, returns from a break and goes to her Catholic high school, showing a changed personality and increased self-confidence. Exactly what is this break? What was she like before?

I'll do these now. Qst (talk) 22:03, 1 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Both done. Qst (talk) 22:11, 1 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Does the book say why she's different? What happened that summer? Wrad (talk) 22:15, 1 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Nothing happened that summer. I searched numerous website, and it was just a break away from her home. Qst (talk) 22:19, 1 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Looks good now. Wrad (talk) 22:24, 1 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. This is my first GA which I've created from scratch. Qst (talk) 22:25, 1 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
