GA Reassessment

In order to uphold the quality of Wikipedia:Good articles, all articles listed as Good articles are being reviewed against the GA criteria as part of the GA project quality task force. While all the hard work that has gone into this article is appreciated, unfortunately, as of September 14, 2008, this article fails to satisfy the criteria, as detailed below. For that reason, the article has been delisted from WP:GA. However, if improvements are made bringing the article up to standards, the article may be nominated at WP:GAN. If you feel this decision has been made in error, you may seek remediation at WP:GAR.

• The Hyphenation and justification section has a clean-up tag.

• Section names should not repeat the article name, as in "Use of TeX".

• Pronouncing and writing "TeX" section ought to be integrated into the History section. Probably ought to be "pronunciation" anyway.

• The Community section is too small to stand alone.

• Many sections/subsections are entirely uncited. For instance: METAFONT, Novel aspects, and Macro Language.

• There are several external links in the body of the article, for instance in the Packages and Editors sections. External links should only appear in an External links section.

• Dates are not handled consistently, sometimes given in international format (30 March 1977) and sometimes in US format (May 13, 1977).

• Italics are used inconsistently and incorrectly throughout the article. For instance: “all rights are reserved. Copying of this file is authorized only if (...) you make absolutely no changes to your copy” Quotations should not be in italics.
