GA criteria[edit]

Well-written:

I made a few grammatical modifications, but nothing significant. With that done and dusted, the article adheres to the policies on prose, structure and layout. Is it the end already? It felt like we were just getting started! (talk) 06:14, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(a) the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct

(b) it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation

Verifiable with no original research:

The article is well-referenced with reliable published sources, and doesn't look to contain any original research. Is it the end already? It felt like we were just getting started! (talk) 06:12, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(a) it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline

(b) reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose)

(c) it contains no original research

Broad in its coverage:

The article seems to cover all aspects of the topic that should be covered, and does not give unnecessarily excessive detail on anything. Is it the end already? It felt like we were just getting started! (talk) 06:11, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(a) it addresses the main aspects of the topic

(b) it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style)

Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.

The article exhibits no signs of bias towards or against its subject. Is it the end already? It felt like we were just getting started! (talk) 06:09, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.

The most recent edits listed in the revision history trail all the way back to 2011, and give no indication that any edit warring has taken place in all that time, so I think the matter of stability is not a hinderance in this case.

Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:

Both images used in the article are validly licensed and serve a relevant illustrative and informative purpose. Is it the end already? It felt like we were just getting started! (talk) 05:37, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(a) media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content

(b) media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions

After reading through the article and checking every nook and cranny, I believe it is ready to hold GA status. Congratulations! :) Is it the end already? It felt like we were just getting started! (talk) 06:15, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
