GA Review

[edit]

I am starting a GA review. Vicenarian (talk) 21:35, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I believe this article to be VERY close to GA status. It is very well written, appears factually accurate and provides good coverage of the topic. My only concern is the lack of inline citations in certain places. I've noted the places I believe specific citations are needed. I am sure the works cited in the reference section contain the information stated, but direct citations should be used in accordance with WP:CITE. Once the citation updates are completed, I will pass the article. Vicenarian (talk) 22:27, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing

[edit]

I have added sourcing as requested with two exceptions (both regarding the Section 4 material):

  • I removed this sentence:

    However, it is possible for such a declaration to be made even if the President is fully able and conscious, such as insanity or an emotional instability which compromises the President's ability to think rationally.

    This sentence is unnecessary, as there is no need to specify a type of disability.
  • I do not believe the following material needs a source:

    However, the President may again submit a written declaration of recovery to the President pro tempore and the Speaker of the House. That declaration could be responded to by the Acting President and the Cabinet in the same way as stated earlier. The allotted 21-day Congressional procedure would start again.

    Section 4 of the amendment specifies that if the Congress rules that the President's inability still exists, then the Vice President "continues" to be Acting President. That means the VP is in the same position as he was before that ruling. There is no other plausible interpretation.

If you have any other requests, don't hesitate to make them. SMP0328. (talk) 02:50, 17 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
