I'll be reviewing this shortly. Psiĥedelisto (talkcontribs) please always ping! 13:13, 3 July 2020 (UTC)Reply


  On hold—Hi DannyS712, an immediate problem I see is the citation format. I don't want to fail the article for that, but it is a big problem. Can you please improve it? It looks like you overly relied on the Visual Editor's citation maker, but you should spell out the names of websites (e.g. United States Department of State, not state.gov; New York Daily News, not nydailynews.com; use {{Cite act}} and not {{Cite web}} to hcch.net). See MOS:CITEFORMAT. Psiĥedelisto (talkcontribs) please always ping! 13:22, 3 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

I don't think that ref formatting is a big enough issue to fail a GA review (criteria call for references, not necessarily formatted perfectly) but I've fixed the website names DannyS712 (talk) 19:13, 3 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
@DannyS712: Perfect formatting isn't needed, good formatting is. Cite 4 still has a URL in its |work=; Cite 6 should be using {{Cite journal}} and needs |issue=/|volume=; Cite 11 still has a URL in its |work=; Cite 19 has a Facebook URL for some reason?

Actually DannyS712, I think Cite 11 should be using {{Cite court}}.   Psiĥedelisto (talkcontribs) please always ping! 20:12, 3 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
Fixed url in 4, 11, and 19. There is no requirement to be using one citation template over another, so I didn't switch 6 and 11 - I wouldn't object if someone else did, but I don't know the intricacies of those templates DannyS712 (talk) 21:41, 3 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

I don't see any other major problems. Passed, good job!

  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
