GA Review

[edit]

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.

  1. Is it well written?
    A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
    In the Storm history and Preparations and impact section, it would be best to add the year the Hurricane took effect.
    B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
    In the Storm history section, it would be best if "September 21" were linked once, per here. The article has a "red link", if it doesn't have an article, it would be best to un-link it, per here.
  2. Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?
    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:
    D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
    B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
  4. Is it neutral?
    It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
  5. Is it stable?
    It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
  6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:
    B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    If the above statements can be answered, I will pass the article. Good luck with improving this article!

I added the year the hurricane existed in the Storm history, but I don't feel it's needed again in the Preps and impact section. I also unlinked September 21 once. Thanks for the review! Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 02:34, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I thought maybe it would be important to add it to the P&I section. Thank you to Julian for getting the stuff I left, cause I have gone off and passed the article. Congrats. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:40, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
