GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

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

Is it well written?
A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
In the QED and "Jackson" section, third paragraph, though, I have a question, "...and were produced by Mark Moffatt (The Saints, Mondo Rock, Tim Finn) and Ricky Fataar (Geyer, Finn, Kids in the Kitchen)", what do you mean by "produced"? Did Moffatt and Fataar produced their album or something? Same section, "QED recorded some of The Crocodiles' material including, 'Everywhere I Go', 'Animal Magic' and 'You're So Hip'" [...] Their debut single, 'Everywhere I Go', was released in December", I'm assuming that "Everywhere I Go" is the same song QED used from The Crocodiles? Same section, you might want to add that "Countdown" is a music television show. Same section, who's "WEA"? In the Solo success: 1986–1994 section, "...'Break in the Weather', was co-written by Jenny Morris and her youngest brother Tam" ---> "...'Break in the Weather', was co-written by Morris and her youngest brother Tam", you don't need to add her full name. In the Later years: 1995–current section, "In March 2003, Port Fairy's 27th Annual Folk Festival[64] was staged with Archie Roach, John Williamson, Renée Geyer, Jenny Morris and emerging Australian band The Waifs were among the popular performers", no need for "Jenny". Same section, "In May 2005, Alive DVD" ---> "In May 2005, the Alive DVD".

Check.

B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
In the QED and "Jackson" section, "B-Side" ---> "B-side". Throughout the article, try not to add so many slashes, (Ex: session / touring, Nancy Sinatra/Lee Hazlewood's, etc.), per here. There needs to be consistency between "Listen Like Thieves World Tour" and "Listen Like Thieves world tour". In the Later years: 1995–current section, why is this ---> "for service to the arts, particularly music, and to the community through charitable organisation" italicized? Either way, it shouldn't be italicized, per here.

Check.

Wrong Jenny Morris did tour with INXS on Listen Like Thieves World Tour in 1987. She also appears on video Burn For You.

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:
Ref. 78 should not be in all capitals, per here. Also, is "Spencer et al" the publisher for Ref. 78? If not, then the publisher or work is missing. In addition, if you find any titles in the sources that are all capitalized, please fix them.
Spencer is one of the authors of The Who's Who in Australian Rock. I've used Spencer et al to ref to that work in the Specific References section. The full reference is already given in the General References section with publisher and other information there. Publisher of ref 78 itself is the Government of Australia, which is wikilinked.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 21:14, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I just needed to know. Thanks for clearing that up, and check.

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:
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):
Is it neutral?
It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
Is it stable?
It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
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:
Are there no free images of Morris available?
I've looked for these at usual sites but no free images have been found.21:14, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
Just needed to know.
Overall:
Pass or Fail:
If the statements above can be answered, I will pass the article. Good luck with improving this article!
