Hi! I guess I'll take this one for review as well. I'm trying to work through some of the backlog in the politics section...it's insane to have to wait over a month and a half for a review... Dana boomer (talk) 01:25, 15 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose):   b (MoS):  
    • I'd like to see another paragraph (about the same length as the one currently there) added to the lead.
    • I'm not sure of the significance of the distance between Aurora and Chicago, and why it is important enough to need to mention it in the lead.
    • In the Background section. Why was his resignation controversial? Was he trying to avoid censure/punishment for something? Was it his fault that the boil water order had to be issued?
    • In the Campaign section, "When the smoke cleared on the election in this municipality that spans four counties" is unencyclopedic, especially in its use of "this".
    • Has there been any more recent news on Weisner's WiFi initiative? If this was a big thing for him, there really should be some sort of an update that's more recent than a year ago.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):  
  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, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  
    A few prose and MOS issues, so I am placing this article on hold. Please let me know if you have any questions. Dana boomer (talk) 01:47, 15 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
    Looks good, so I'm passing the article to GA status. Nice work, and thanks for the prompt response. Dana boomer (talk) 18:19, 15 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
