Sierra de Guadarrama[edit]

This article is a very nice work, it has got technical details, it has got good and a lot of photos, and it's very complete. Miguel303xm 15:47 18 sep 2006 (UTC)

Hola Miguel. If I haven't said it clearly enough before now, thank you for writing the Spanish Wikipedia featured article! As the translator here, I would be the first to stump for this, but unfortunately the nomination is doomed and I suggest withdrawing it. Featured article standards on the English Wikipedia require inline citations. I was planning on nominating it for WP:GA status once I translated the last few paragraphs (I know, why did I stop so close to the end). It might fail there too for the same reason I noted here, but it would at least have a chance.--Fuhghettaboutit 03:05, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Recommend to peer review. This article has a very good start, which could be polished at WP:PR. It is listy, has no inline citations, and could use some prose polishing. In this one sentence, we find 1) one-paragraph sentence, 2) redundancies, 3) weasle words, and 4) overly long sentence: The flora and fauna of the Sierra de Guadarrama is made up of a great diversity of species that represent something of a synthesis between those that are common to the mediterranean landscape and climate of Spain's Centeal Plateau, and more specialized plants and animals native to in the high altitude climate and mountainous terrain of the Pyrenees and Alps.
