[edit]

Hi there, I am happy to tell you that this article has passed GA without the need for any further improvement. Listed below is information on how the article fared against the Wikipedia:good article criteria, with suggestions for future development. These are not required to achieve GA standard, but they might help in future A-class or FAC review process.

  • It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
Prose is not bad, although there are some short sentences. I have taken the liberty of tidying some of the prose, merging some of the stubbier paragrahs to aid the article's flow and I have also moved the wikinews box down to the see also section (I'm pretty sure that is where it should be and it looks better there too). I have made two non-essential suggested improvements below.
  • "when a logging truck lost control and tipped onto a hayride in Cap-Pele killing twelve,[3]" from the lead would be better slotted into the reaction section somewhere with the appropriate context as it is too detailed for the lead and is not mentioned elsewhere in the article.
  • "Eight of the van occupants were pronounced dead" - at the scene?
  • It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  • It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  • It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    a (fair representation): b (all significant views):
  • It is stable.
  • It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic.
    a (tagged and captioned): b (lack of images does not in itself exclude GA): c (non-free images have fair use rationales):
  • Overall:
    a Pass/Fail:

Thankyou and congratulations, an excellent addition to Wikipedia:Good Articles. All the best.--Jackyd101 (talk) 02:10, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
