This peer review discussion has been closed.
This article is about the leader of the Scottish Labour Party, and a key figure in the pro-union debate as Scotland prepares to vote on its future. I've listed it for peer review because I've been working on it over the past few weeks and would like some feedback on how it's developing. Using Ed Miliband—a current GA about a senior politician—as a template, I've pretty much written this from scratch. I think it's probably a good candidate for GA but am interested to know what others think, and what other information I may need to add.

Comments from LT910001 edit

Thanks for your edits to this article going forward into the 2014 referendum! This article is very well-written and well-sourced. There don't appear to be any problems with the image or sources, and the article is very thorough. Unfortunately I don't know too much about the politics of the situation, but having had a look at the article, I'd encourage you to nominate for GA status with this article, and deal with any problems identified in that context. Unfortunately the PR process is not very active, so it might be a good idea to request feedback on the talk pages of any relevant wikiprojects (WP:Scotland and WP:UK) to elicit some more targeted feedback. Good luck! Kind regards, --LT910001 (talk) 15:15, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Edit: The titles of the positions of policitians and political bodies are generally written as common rather than proper nouns, and not capitalised. This is found here WP:JOBTITLES and helps make the text look less prickly. --LT910001 (talk) 15:18, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'd kind of given up on getting any feedback with this, so your comments are much appreciated. I'll go through and change the office titles, and ask for some comments at the various WikiProjects. I also have it listed at WP:GOCE so that should hopefully sharpen the prose too. Thanks again, Paul MacDermott (talk) 16:03, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Minor comment - MSP needs to be expanded or linked in the text. Keith D (talk) 23:19, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
