Good article criteria

Well written

Optional: If you want, the first letter of quotes can be decapitalised as per MOS:QUOTE.
Peter Needham, writing for The Australian, writes that. Could find a way to reword this so that "writing" and "writes" aren't both in the sentence.

Verifiable with no original research

I conducted spot checks of secondary sources 3, 4, 5 and 8.

Is it 156 of 160 pages? Could it be that the index pages are being counted or not?

Broad in its coverage

As some of the micronations listed don't have articles, could you add the (real) country that each micronation is in. For example, Principality of Sealand, United Kingdom. Freetown Christiania, Denmark.
You could add a short, one sentence definition of micronations to "Background and publication".

Neutral

Stable

Illustrated, if possible

Alt text could be added for the image. Otherwise screen readers just read out the file name.

General

That's it. A short but pretty good article already. Steelkamp (talk) 06:23, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Steelkamp: Thanks for the feedback! I believe all of your concerns have been addressed; I particularly liked your suggestion regarding adding the countries within which the micronations are located. Additionally, the book is indeed 160 pages; turns out only the first 156 are numbered. ツ LunaEatsTuna (💬)— 22:44, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

One more thing, does Cascadia refer to the Cascadia movement? That page could be linked. Steelkamp (talk) 04:25, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It refers to the Republic of Cascadia, which seems related to the movement, but the micronation itself is not mentioned on said article. ツ LunaEatsTuna (💬)— 05:35, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
