GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
Never heard of Sanctuary, but my younger self religiously tuned in to SG1 for Amanda Tapping...
- Is it reasonably well written?
- A. Prose quality:
- Just a few changes needed
"The character is over a century and a half old, having been given her advanced longevity from injecting herself with vampire blood." -> should be "by injecting herself"
"This allowed each member unique abilities." -> Probably should be "granted each member"
"By the turn of the 20th century, her research with the abnormal population went into full swing and founded the Sanctuary Network." -> "and she founded..."
"during which she decided to use the embryo an bear her daughter" -> "use the embryo to bear her daughter"
"Despite this, Magnus believes her life energy might be in the shield buffer." -> I'm not really sure what this means.
- Just a few changes needed
- B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:
- MOS is fine.
- A. Prose quality:
- Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
- A. References to sources:
- B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
- C. No original research:
- Citations are grand.
- A. References to sources:
- Is it broad in its coverage?
- A. Major aspects:
- B. Focused:
- Scope is grand.
- A. Major aspects:
- Is it neutral?
- Fair representation without bias:
- Article is neutral.
- Fair representation without bias:
- Is it stable?
- No edit wars, etc:
- No edit wars, etc:
- Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
- A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
- B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
- Images are used well. One is commons, one is fair-use with a solid rationale.
- A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
- Overall:
- Pass or Fail:
- Just going to hold this until the 1A fixes are sorted, then it should be ready to pass.

Accuracy edit
(I hope I'm entering this correctly.)
Was Helen Magnus really born in 1850? How about 1950?

- Having read the article during my review, it states she was born in Victorian-era England and has extended her lifespan with vampire blood. She is a fictional character from a fantasy show, after all. GRAPPLE X 15:33, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
From the article: "In the second season her daughter, Ashley was killed off. The producers, as well as the American and Canadian networks to give the character, including Magnus, a deep and most dramatic impact." The second sentence is ill-formed and likely missing a word or two, but I have no idea what was intended. Can anyone correct this, please? 98.207.166.2 98.207.166.2 (talk) 03:27, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
