GA Review

[edit]

I will be reviewing this article for GA status.--Finalnight (talk) 01:42, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Good article nomination on hold

[edit]

This article's Good Article promotion has been put on hold. During review, some issues were discovered that can be resolved without a major re-write. This is how the article, as of May 27, 2008, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: fail
2. Factually accurate?: pass
3. Broad in coverage?: pass
4. Neutral point of view?: pass
5. Article stability? pass
6. Images?: pass


Overall, this article provides broad and accurate coverage of a fictional character which is an accomplishment in of itself. However, there are still numerous grammatical and spelling errors within the article which need to be addressed in order for it to achieve GA status. Also, the article should lose or relocate the trivia in the "creation and conception" section as well as references to specific types of merchandising in the lead. The name Sano should be replaced with Sanosuke or Sagara as that is the proper character name. "He" could be used as well, but Sano (a nickname) is repeated far too many times in the article (71 to be exact). I found that dumping the text into word helped with finding copyedit issues. Thanks.

Please address these matters soon and then leave a note here showing how they have been resolved. After 48 hours the article should be reviewed again. If these issues are not addressed within 7 days, the article may be failed without further notice. Thank you for your work so far. Finalnight (talk) 02:11, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review I have already made some changes per your review but I wanted to know what exactly are the trivia parts in the conception section. RegardsTintor2 (talk) 19:50, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In particular, I was referring to the lines "Sanosuke is described by Watsuki as "Most Likely To Have His First Name Mangled," with fans using incorrect kanji for the "Sa", "No" and "Suke." Some used "Sasuke" instead of "Sanosuke", leading Watsuki to say "he's not a ninja!". Watsuki saw Shiba Ryōtarō's version of Sanosuke Harada as the one he wanted to use to design and remarks his hair as one of the craziest things he has ever drawn." --Finalnight (talk) 23:15, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
About the grammar I cant do too many things since Im not a native English speaker so I made a request to the League of Copyeditors.Tintor2 (talk) 23:59, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like the grammar editing has stalled out for now, please renominate once fixed.--Finalnight (talk) 01:32, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
