GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
    • Morningstar and portfolio link to dab pages.
    • The lead is very blunt, and does not introduce the subject; instead it jumps straight to "details" and heads on the main stuff later.
    • No-where in the text is there any indication of what country he comes from.
    • P/E is not understandable, because the first occurrence does not have the abbreviation in brackets.
    • I have not made a full review of the prose.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    Not checked.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    • There is only an estimate of the year of birth, no place of birth, no information about education, and hardly information about his career prior to the 2000s.
    • The article is dominated by recentism.
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    The article is not imaged.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    This article lacks fundamental information expected in a biography article. It is not possible to pass the article as GA without much more content. I will therefore have to fail the article. However, except for the lead, what is there is good. Keep up the good work :) Arsenikk (talk) 22:43, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
