I am Reviewing this article for possible GA status. Shearonink (talk) 14:19, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

1. Is it well written?

   A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:

   B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:

   I think the "Sights and cultures" list should be converted to prose. It's almost prose already, just needs some adjusting.Shearonink (talk) 03:19, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

   Thanks for adjusting this section. Shearonink (talk) 23:31, 9 February 2017 (UTC)

2. Is it verifiable with no original research?

   A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

   B. All in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines:

   C. It contains no original research:

   D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:

   Ran the copyvio tool, no problems found. Shearonink (talk) 15:30, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

3. Is it broad in its coverage?

   A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:

   B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):

4. Is it neutral?

   It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:

5. Is it stable?

   It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:

   No edit wars found. Shearonink (talk) 03:19, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?

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

   Several of the images are lacking the US public domain tag. Shearonink (talk) 15:30, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

   Please refer to "Images" section below. Shearonink (talk) 23:31, 9 February 2017 (UTC)

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

   NIcely-done. Shearonink (talk) 03:19, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

7. Overall:

   Pass or Fail:

   Finishing up this Review is On hold pending the US public domain tags issues in the "Images" section below. Shearonink (talk) 23:31, 9 February 2017 (UTC)

   Everything has been adjusted to my satisfaction & according to the GA Criteria. Shearonink (talk) 18:21, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

Non-reviewer comments

I would convert the Sights and culture section to prose. The embedded list is awkward and unnecessary (WP:PROSE). – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 17:14, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

Agreed. Shearonink (talk) 03:19, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

OK, I've done this now. Prioryman (talk) 13:47, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

Read-throughs

I will be doing a few more deep read-throughs to see if there's anything I missed but - other than converting the one section from List to Prose - so far I haven't really found found much of any great concern. Shearonink (talk) 03:19, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

Images

The following 3 images lack the US public-domain tag and must be updated with that information before I can finish this GA Review:

• File:The battle between the Flemish and the French at Cassel.jpg
• File:ND - CASSEL - Grande-Place. Jour de Marché.JPG
• File:Van Eecke 100 MTIL - MONT-CASSEL - Vue générale - Les Moulins.JPG

Thanks, Shearonink (talk) 23:31, 9 February 2017 (UTC)

@Prioryman: Have you had a chance to finish up the public-domain tags for these 3 images? Shearonink (talk) 16:54, 18 February 2017 (UTC)

Yep, all done now - thanks. Prioryman (talk) 09:36, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
