Review[edit]

Rate Attribute Review Comment
1. Well-written:
1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.
  • World War I
    • "Frances Lyon, was born there on 20 July 1917." (Where, in Battery F? Suggest: was born in Hawaii on...)
    • "Devers was promoted to captain on May 15, and major on August 5, did not see action." (Choppy sentence: but did not see action.)
    • "...which was under orders to move to the France" (Remove the.)
  • Between the wars
    • "He reverted from colonel to his substantive rank on taking up the appointment on 20 August 1919." (Suggest: rank of captain.)
1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
2b. 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).
2c. it contains no original research.
3. Broad in its coverage:
3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
7. Overall assessment. On hold until 1a corrections made. The rest looks good. Djmaschek (talk) 05:00, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
