I'll be reviewing this article for a GA as soon as I can. I've also said that I'll review another one but I'll get to this one first. Please be patient DG :)--White Shadows It's a wonderful life 16:32, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thank you in advance. This week will be a bit busy for me so if I don't reply soon, it's because of school ;) Diego Grez what's up? 17:40, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Extra comment

[edit]

Please see the last GA review for comments about unreliable sources. I quickly checked through the article and see that many references that were questioned in the 2nd GA review (completed by me) are still in the article, with no arguments provided for their reliability. These include gochile.cl, visitchile.com, corrugated city, and many others. The Spanish language sources commented on by SandyGeorgia are especially pertinent, as it is these that still seem to proliferate. Please contact an editor who is fluent in Spanish and thoroughly understands the reliability guidelines to assist with this review. Dana boomer (talk) 19:57, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  1. El Rancahuaso is partially reliable. It is an online newspaper on the O'Higgins Region, so they can be trusted a little bit :-)
  2. PichilemuChile.com is not trustworthy in my opinion, and it should be changed to a Pichilemu News source that could comply the same function.
  3. Grupo Visiting's source was removed and replaced with Escolares.net, that is reliable. Diego Grez what's up? 18:37, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  4. GoChile.com replaced with Britannica. GoChile was referencing the sentence "is a beach resort in Chile". Britannica says "...branching from San Fernando to the popular beach resort of Pichilemu, 60 miles (100 km) west..." Diego Grez what's up? 18:39, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Good good! I'm still waiting for a copy-edit though!--White Shadows Nobody said it was easy 18:53, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah, forgot that, gimme a min to request a quick copyedit at the GOCE. Diego Grez what's up? 19:53, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, replaced most of the unreliable sources with other ones you'll can't change :) Waiting for the copyedit and me done :-P Diego Grez what's up? 21:11, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There are still refs to GoChile and others. WhiteShadow, I think you misunderstood what I said. I know that Spanish is Diego's first language - my request was to find an editor who speaks Spanish and thoroughly understands the reliable sources guideline to help review this article. No offense meant to you, Diego, but all of the unreliable sources that were found and in some cases still are found in the article would seem to show that you do not fully understand that guideline; hence, the request for another Spanish-speaking editor.

I see. Diego, Perhaps you can get someone else to just take one more look at it? So far, this is one of the only issues that remain.--White Shadows Nobody said it was easy 02:15, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I haven't got enough time to remove all the not reliable sources I added when I started working on the article. Excuse me :) Diego Grez what's up? 15:50, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I've checked off everything and I'll pass this GA as soon as the other sources are removed/replaced/proven their reliability.--White Shadows Nobody said it was easy 23:38, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
OK. It took me an hour and a half to check every single reference for their reliability. My report is here, with explanations on why some "blogs" are reliable. I removed/replaced 6 references. Diego Grez what's up? 01:34, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Great! I'm passing this GAN! Good Job!--White Shadows Nobody said it was easy 03:00, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Copy edit notes

[edit]

I have removed the date from the photo as there is no way this picture was taken in 1932; at that point cars were still boxy and not rounded at all. This pic was likely taken in the 1940s. compare

http://www.mundoandino.com/Chile/Pichilemu seems to be a mirror site and hence cannot be used as a source. I have marked it "failed verification". --Diannaa (Talk) 22:27, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Copy edits are done. I will review it afresh in a few hours and look for things that got missed. Regards, --Diannaa (Talk) 23:01, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
