I'll be glad to take this review; sorry you've had to wait so long for one. Initial comments to follow in the next 1-3 days. Thanks in advance for your work! -- Khazar2 (talk) 23:18, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Checklist[edit]

I see no GA-level issues on an initial pass, so I'll go straight to the checklist here. Thanks for your work on this; it looks quite solid. The only quibble I can find so far, which isn't a GA criteria issue, is that MOS:QUOTE mostly forbids use of wikilinks inside quotations, which this article does heavily; none of these links seem unreasonable, however. -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:29, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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. Spotchecks show no evidence of copyright issues.
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). Some of these publications may be a bit borderline for reliable sources, but I don't see any that seem unacceptable.
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. Technically I believe even the infobox image is supposed to have a caption. "Far Side Virtual album cover"? Since this is so basic a point, I'll just take care of this myself.
7. Overall assessment. Pass as GA
