GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

This article has some considerable shortcomings with respect to the good article criteria.

  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    There are errors in English grammar (especially in the lede) and some otherwise odd usage throughout.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    There appear to be a few cited sources which are independent and reliable third party sources but sites like this and this appear to be just forums. See WP:Reliable Sources in general, and WP:USERG specifically.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
    The whole article seems to be heavy on praise for the subject, the only criticism mentioned is a six word sentence at the end of the article. I'm sure there were critics and/or negative reviews by at least some.
  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):
    I wouldn't fail an GA nom solely for lack of images, but a web browser does have a visual component that could be represented by more that just a screenshot in the infobox
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    There is still quite a bit of work that needs to be done in the areas of copyediting and referencing to reliable, independent, third party sources. Good luck improving the article.
