Starting GA reassessment as part of the GA Sweeps process. Jezhotwells (talk) 17:14, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Checking against GA criteria

GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   Biography: Seven sentences in this section start with the word He. Best to vary to eliminate this sort of repetition. Y

   Music: Two sentences starting Many of his compositions ... Y

   Lead: Again repetitive phrasing - the lead should fully summarise the whole article, i don't think it quite does this at present.

   Overall, I recommend a thorough copy-edit to improve the prose and make it flow better.

   I would further recommend a separate Awards section to include awards and nominations, and re-organising the Music section, perhaps sub-dividing to make it more readable.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   The references could do with formatting using templates such as {{cite news}} and {{cite web}}

   ref #1 [1] is a dead link; ref #4[2]I note the source names John Metcalf but you have John Metcalfe?; ref #5[3] doesn't say that he is the the Welsh Medium Teaching Fellow for the School of Music; ref #7 [4] is just a search page; ref #8 [5] just returns an empty page; ref #15 [6] failed verification; ref #17 [7] is a dead link; ref #19 is a dead link;

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:

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):

   No images are used, but I recommend searching for an image - not a GA requirement however.

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   On hold for seven days for these issues to be addressed. Major contributors and projects will be informed.Jezhotwells (talk) 18:12, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

   OK, I think the issues have been fixed now, so I am happy for this artcile to reatin its GA status, thanks for your hard work.

Progress

• Jubileeclipman (talk · contribs) has been addressing the prose, thankfully.
• I've made a start on the deadlinks etc.
• I can't find any free-use images of Puw, having had another look.

More to come, no doubt. Bencherlite^Talk 13:16, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
