GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a. (prose, spelling, and grammar):
    The article's contents are written in prose and are understandable to the majority of readers, however detail is sometimes overabundant
    b. (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    The article consists of mostly appropriate layout, however most paragraphs tend to be overly large and make it hard to break down the information
    I have made some edits to split some of the larger paragraphs into more manageable sections.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a. (reference section):
    The article is broadly verifiable and references are appropriately formatted
    b. (citations to reliable sources):
    Citations are broadly correct and claims are backed up by inline citations
    c. (OR):
    No original research is in the article
    d. (copyvio and plagiarism):
    No copyrighted content is within the article
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a. (major aspects):
    The article addresses the primary aspects of the topic in an appropriate manner
    b. (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
    There are no obviously biased statements and is written in a descriptive manner
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
    No edit warring
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a. (images are tagged and non-free content have non-free use rationales):
    All images are wikimedia sourced and copyright (CC) appropriate
    b. (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    Media broadly matches the content of the article when
  7. Overall:
    Pass/fail:
    The article is generally well written, although there should be more paragraphs and less excessive detail

(Criteria marked are unassessed)

  1. DimensionalFusion, terribly sorry for the late reply to this, I've been busy with some irl stuff, but I reviewed the article and divided some of the larger paragraphs into smaller ones to aid in comprehension. Additionally, I am more than willing to trim out some of the more extraneous information for simplicity (I got the feeling when writing the article that there was quite a bit of detail with everything covered in the newspapers and websites), but was wondering if you had any more specific or concrete comments as far as specific changes you would recommend. Thank you for initiating this review, and if you have any comments, questions, or concerns, please reach out. -JJonahJackalope (talk) 14:51, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @JJonahJackalope, the article mostly looks good now! Looks much less like a single mass of text now, so I'm going to go ahead and pass it DimensionalFusion (talk) 20:36, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
