Starting GA review.Pyrotec (talk) 20:47, 20 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My plan is to do an initial review and to follow it up with a more detailed GA review to check references and sources, etc. Some of the grammar is a bit stilted in the WP:lead but that should not be too hard to fix. What does worry me, at the start, is the number of WP:red links in the Islamic and Portuguese periods. These may result in the article going On Hold. I mention this at the start of the GA review, so that it can be considered now.Pyrotec (talk) 21:20, 20 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removed all Over-red linking of Portuguese officers etc.... KensplanetTalkContributions 04:31, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree with the red link removal. Most of them would have been notable leaders of the sixteenth century. Removing it would lend a sense of systemic bias that favours recentism over historical figures. =Nichalp «Talk»= 09:20, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It's not actually my decision. The GA reviewer has told that the article may go on Hold if the articles are not created. KensplanetTC 11:37, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
