GA Review[edit]

This review is transcluded from Talk:Jacen Tan/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

I shall be reviewing this page against the Good Article criteria, following its nomination for Good Article status. Jezhotwells (talk) 18:25, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Quick fail criteria assessment

  1. The article completely lacks reliable sources – see Wikipedia:Verifiability.
  2. The topic is treated in an obviously non-neutral way – see Wikipedia:Neutral point of view.
  3. There are cleanup banners that are obviously still valid, including cleanup, wikify, NPOV, unreferenced or large numbers of fact, clarifyme, or similar tags.
  4. The article is or has been the subject of ongoing or recent, unresolved edit wars.
  5. The article specifically concerns a rapidly unfolding current event with a definite endpoint.

No problems found when checking against quick fail criteria, on to substantive review. Jezhotwells (talk) 18:30, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Checking against GA criteria[edit]

  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose):
    • The article is reasonably well written
    b (MoS):
    • Would suggest a suitable infobox is added, and that the background section be expanded to give some account of his life. A section of reception / criticism of his films would be good as well. Any reliable sources in the additional sources section should eb converted to inline citations tied to the statements they support;
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references):
    • ref #12 [1] is a dead link; includes cameos by prominent Singapore film-makers such as Juan Foo, Tan Pin Pin, Sun Koh, Kristin Saw and Lionel Chok. only two of these are supported by ref #3 [2]; ref #6 [3] supports the fact that the film won 2nd place in the Digital Short Film - Open Category, not overall at the fiesta ss implied; ref #10 [4] is OK, but makes no connection with the film; neither does ref #15 [5] which as a press release is a WP:primary source.
    b (citations to reliable sources):
    • ref #4 [6] appears to be a blog, not a reliable source and doesn't support the fact that Tan made the video, just that he used to be the drummer; ref #8 [7] is not a reliable source, see the statement on the website: Youth.SG does not control all the Content posted via the website and, as such, does not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of its Content.; ref #9 [8] does not appear to meet the reliable source standards; ref #11 [9] is a self-published source, not reliable; ref #13 [10] is a blog, not RS;
    c (OR):
    • The connection made between Tan's film and the availability of sports pitches appears to be original research
  3. It is broad in its scope.
    a (major aspects):
    • No details about birth, upbringing, eduction - the sort of details that should be included in a biography.
    b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
    • Insufficient content to determine
  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):
    • Not applicable no images used.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    • Overall, this article is a long way away from good article standards so I will not be listing it at this time. Jezhotwells (talk) 19:16, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
