Criteria[edit]

  • It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
    • Overall the article was good, but I would put forward the following suggestions:
      • Firstly, you could use {{cite book}} to format your referencese, and it should be organised alphabetically with the author's surname appearing first (eg. Thach, Pham N).
        • Secondly, your background is a bit short IMO and seems to focus slightly more on the North Vietnamese. You could provide some information on the South Vietnamese side; what was their situation politically and militarily before the battle??
          • Thirdly, after a person's full name had been mentioned once, you only need to use their surname thereafter when referring to them again, without mentioning their rank.
  • It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    • Your article is well-referenced.
  • It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    • The coverage is good, with a good view from both sides of the battle.
  • It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    a (fair representation): b (all significant views):
    • Consider that most of the sources were taken from the Vietnamese communists, the article seem to cover the South Vietnamese side very well, in line with the rule of neutrality.
  • It is stable.
    No edit wars etc.:
    • This part is fine
  • It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic.
    a (tagged and captioned): b (Is illustrated with appropriate images): c (non-free images have fair use rationales): d public domain pictures appropriately demonstrate why they are public domain':
    • The images were used appropriately to highlight the event in question, with correct licensing.
  • Overall:
    a Pass/Fail:
    • Generally this article was very well-written, it covered the event very well. I will let it pass as GA Class.CreationofGod (talk) 12:32, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
