Failed "good article" nomination

This article failed good article nomination. This is how the article, as of February 26, 2007, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: no. The lead is only one sentence long, and many paragraphs have only two sentences. Much of the text also suffers from proseline.

2. Factually accurate?: no. The artist's own website (or MySpace) are not acceptable sources. See WP:RS for information about what sources should be used.

3. Broad in coverage?: no. Much of the proseline prevents any sort of detail from being present. As an example, the section about The Prayer Cycle gives very little information about the work other than the languages and artists that appear. The article also needs an infobox.

4. Neutral point of view?: yes.

5. Article stability? yes.

6. Images?: N/A. No images present, but this is not reason enough to fail.

When these issues are addressed, the article can be resubmitted for consideration. Thanks for your work so far. --ShadowHalo 22:35, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
