Checking against GA criteria
[edit]- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
b (MoS):
The Lead does not meet the guidelines of WP:LEAD - The lead section should briefly summarize the most important points covered in an article in such a way that it can stand on its own as a concise version of the article.' Done
- There are a large number of red links. If no one is going to write these articles, perhaps they should be de-wikified. Optional
- a (prose):
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references):
b (citations to reliable sources):
c (OR):
There is nothing in ref #6 [1], to support the statement ... built himself the first television set in the state of Georgiaref #12 needs page numbers- All other online sources check out
- a (references):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects):
b (focused):
There is nothing about the subject's origins, place and date of birth, upbringing before Georgia Tech. Have no biographies been published? Is there no US Census data available?

- Pass/Fail:
ON hold for seven days for the concerns above to be addressed. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 15:35, 2 April 2010 (UTC)- OK, I fixed the book refs as per Wikilinks to full references. Check that out for future reference.
- Pass/Fail:
- Thanks for reviewing the article. I found the ref for the first television bit, it's in http://www.gtri.gatech.edu/gtri75/history-makers/glen-p-robinson-jr . —Disavian (talk/contribs) 00:32, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
- I checked that out - as it is a self published source you need to say that he claims to have built –– Jezhotwells (talk) 01:49, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
- Okay. Added page numbers for that one ref in html comments; greatly expanded the lead; and added the "claims to have built." As for the birth/origins/upbringing, I haven't found any such information, and I wouldn't know where to look in the census. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 02:22, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
- OK, if that info can't be found then we can't put it in. I am happy to pass this as a good article. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 14:37, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
