This review is transcluded from Talk:Matthew Butler/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Hi, sorry for the delay. I fixed some issues with the article. I added a template to the other picture because it has no sufficient rationale for why it is free - it is still possible that the copyright owner died less than 70 years ago and the source says nothing about that, so if there is further info on its author/age or another license is available, please add it. Some other issues: the lead must be longer and summarize the article, as of now it is too short although it properly establishes notability upfront, a citation tag is left to address, the article is categorized as having bad ISBNs, could you check them?, please clarify what "U.S. Volunteers" are (or link to an article), provide a source/explanation for why he's in the category English Americans, and incorporate the very last paragraph into the text, it's short and choppy. Thank you. I'm putting the article on hold. Hekerui (talk) 21:55, 27 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

The issues were not addressed since I put the article on hold weeks ago. I have to fail the article, sadly. Hekerui (talk) 08:12, 22 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
