  • Check the "External links" part of the GA toolbox. Some of the links are dead or are linking to completely different things.
    • You will have to check each reference to see if they still link to the thing you want.
    •  Done All references checked and furnished with archive links. Ones that were either dead or seemingly not relevant have been removed or replaced. The 'too many refs in one place' issue below may still exist, I've not checked thoroughly for that yet. ƒirefly ( t · c · who? ) 23:46, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Improvements were also made to IntelliMirror features such as Offline Files, Roaming user profiles and Folder redirection." [citation needed]

 Done - I've removed the latter two paragraphs, as they don't really add any information not provided elsewhere. ƒirefly ( t · c · who? ) 09:47, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • References need various things that is needed to be completed. For example, access dates, publishers, dates, authors, etc.
    •  Done I believe I've fixed them all! Some references didn't list authors or publication dates, but I've added blank (i.e. |author=<!--N/A-->) parameters to those. ƒirefly ( t · c · who? ) 20:23, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Images are copyrighted, but there are no realistic alternatives.
    • Yeah, unfortunately there aren't any suitable alternatives - we need to show the operating system's UI, and can only really do that by using non-free content. So this is a {{cantfix}}. ƒirefly ( t · c · who? ) 20:23, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Plenty of things to fix before it becomes a GA. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 05:03, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A few more things:

  • Ref 2 is a bare ref and needs citation form.
  • Last bullet point of Other features needs the ref fixed.
  • Ref 16, 20, 31, 45, and 84 needs consistent date formats.
  • Ref 99 needs to be fixed.

Getting there. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 20:29, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
