Review

[edit]
  1. Well-written:
  2. Criteria Notes Result
    (a) (prose) Well written Pass Pass
    (b) (MoS) In the first paragraph of the article, I recommend to the authors to explain "what" the commission is and "why" it was established. A reader who is unfamiliar with the topic of "animal magnetism" does not immediately understand what you are talking about. Pass Pass
  3. Verifiable with no original research:
  4. Criteria Notes Result
    (a) (references) Reference are good and well cited Pass Pass
    (b) (citations to reliable sources) yes Pass Pass
    (c) (original research) The reviewer has left no comments here Pass Pass
    (d) (copyvio and plagiarism) No plagisrism, checked with grammarly Pass Pass
  5. Broad in its coverage:
  6. Criteria Notes Result
    (a) (major aspects) The article deeply delves into the topic, but an historic reviewer is needed Pass Pass
    (b) (focused) In my opinion, the first part of the article is too broad and explores aspects that are not necessarily relevant. Furthermore, the core of the article (the commission description) is described after more than 4000 words. I suggest reducing the text in the first part to make the article more focused on the topic. The section "Four Vestiges of the Practice of Contact Magnetization" also seems superfluous or misplaced. Pass Pass
  7. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
  8. Notes Result
    this sentence is strong "These facts expose the error in the commonly expressed (in modern literature) and extremely misleading misrepresentation of affairs; namely, the assertion that the Commissions had agreed that, in each case, Mesmer had" cured "his patients:" "and probably need more references. Don't know Don't know
  9. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
  10. Notes Result
    The reviewer has left no comments here Pass Pass
  11. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
  12. Criteria Notes Result
    (a) (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales) The reviewer has left no comments here Pass Pass
    (b) (appropriate use with suitable captions) The reviewer has left no comments here Pass Pass

Result

[edit]
Result Notes
Pass Pass the authors expanded and improved the page as requested. However, a historical peer review is suggested. But from a formal point of view the article is a good article.
