GA Review

[edit]
GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
    • lead should include Heracles and Iole's story in a little more detail. about she being an indirect cause of his death. her husband and son.
      • put additional on lead
    • violation of WP:LAYOUT: Images - text sandwiched between imgs, imgs not spread out (Reduce imgs)
      • reduced images to a minimum plus spread out more
  1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    • Good work on sourcing but avoid oversourcing. 1 ref per sentence, 1 ref for the whole para is OK, if each sentence is attributed to the same ref.
  • reduced references to a minimum
  1. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    • son Cleodaeus, siblings, mother not discussed
      • added information on Cleodaeus, siblings, and mother
    • the focus should be Iole, not Heracles or Deianera, their story can be curtained. Also the story of centaur Nessus.
      • focused more on Iole and curtailed Heracles and Deianera and Nessus
  1. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  2. It is stable.
    No edit wars etc.:
  3. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  4. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    All the best improving the article.
  • Too many quotes in Other versions section; merge as text. For (looks like wikiquote) policy, see WP:QUOTE.
  • reduced quotes to a minimum
  • Winning Iole in a contest covers more than what it's title says. Please rename appropriately.
  • changed heading to reflect what the section is about
  • Maintain consistency in spellings, 3 versions Deianera, Deianira, Deianeira are found. Just choose 1
  • made one spelling
  • A rewrite considering WP:QUOTE policy and WP:UNDUE is needed, with additional info about family.
  • copyedited accordingly

Plutarch

[edit]

Parallel Lives of Iole and Clusia: An exact citation, please, for this figment. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 02:32, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to be Pseudo-Plutarch. --Akhilleus (talk) 02:49, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Took out the Plutarch items that seem to be in dispute. --Doug Coldwell talk 11:46, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Not helpful. When described for what it is, not the Parallel Lives, it's a useful reference. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 15:44, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
