GA review (see here for criteria) (see here for this contributor's history of GA reviews)

1. It is reasonably well written:

   Not Yet

   1. There are more links that can be added, I see many in the lead alone (frigate, shipwreck, and Atlantic to name a few) I would recommend removing the redlinks not likely to be created soon and replacing them with other links - I know what a frigate is, for example, but the average person may not.

I've added the links you have suggested and one or two others, are there any others you think are necessary?--Jackyd101 (talk) 08:02, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Just to add, the redlinks are almost all ships or men who will eventually have articles. The Raid on Dunkirk is an engagement I will personally be addressing in the near future.--Jackyd101 (talk) 08:04, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

1. 1. Is there any info at all about what he did from 1783-1790 while unemployed?

I haven't located any. Given his ill-health, he probably subsided on his half-pay while living with his family, but I can't source it.--Jackyd101 (talk) 08:02, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

1. 1. Is there an exact cause of death for him?

Nothing specific. Its not unusual for the cause of death to be uncertain for naval officers in the early nineteenth century - a sudden fever or undiagnosed malaria or any number of other ailements could have been responsible.--Jackyd101 (talk) 08:02, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

1. It is factually accurate and verifiable:

   Pass Meets the minimum GA Criterion for referencing as far as I can tell, though I would highly suggest adding more references to dates and such before promoting any more, that's just me.

2. It is broad in its coverage:

   Pass No problems there.

3. It follows the neutral point of view policy:

   Pass No problems there.

4. It is stable:

   Pass No problems there.

5. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate:

   Weak Pass

   1. Are there any images that can be added? Im sure a pic of a ship, a painting of a battle, or one of the locations discussed could be added. It would help break up the blocks of text.

I have added a chart of the Battle of Copenhagen that depicts the location of Inman's ship during the battle.--Jackyd101 (talk) 08:02, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

1. Overall:

   On Hold while a few minor details are addressed. —Ed!^(talk) 02:28, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Thankyou very much for the review. I've done my best to address your points and please let me know if there is anything else to attend to. Regards--Jackyd101 (talk) 08:02, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

OK then, I think they have been addressed to my satisfaction. The article now meets the GA criteria, according to my interpretation of them. —Ed!^(talk) 23:15, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Thankyou very much for the review.--Jackyd101 (talk) 23:40, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
