GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


This article is well written biography

  1. Is it well written?
    A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
    Well written, but few minor changes desired. (see below)
    B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
  2. Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?
    A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
    B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):
    C. It contains no original research:
    D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
    B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
  4. Is it neutral?
    It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
  5. Is it stable?
    It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
  6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:
    B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:


The following minor fixes are desired:

  • "A 15th century Canterbury chronicler claimed that there were a number" -- see WP:WTA, "claimed" can be replaced by "wrote"
  • "The evidence for this is the letters that Gregory" -- gramatical mistake??

The above two issues are very small, so I am passing the GA review, the editors can fix this up later. Cheers. Bluptr (talk) 14:53, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
