Assessment

This article has good references. It needs improvements in the lead, the article and section structure, supporting material (infobox etc.), in additional biographical information, a less editorial style etc. Best wishes Hekerui (talk) 23:15, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I've made some changes and am now going to try for wp:ga. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 17:18, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations on the GA! Hekerui (talk) 14:33, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the comment Hekerui, and for the valuable initial feedback. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 15:23, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone crop the main picture a bit? Currently (at least on my resolution) you don't really get a close look at Wittenberg. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 14:43, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I cropped the photo a little. Unfortunately, cropping it to just Wittenberg would (IMO) make the image awkward. Does it look better now? Mitico (talk, contribs) 15:15, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for taking resizing the image, I think it looks better. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 15:23, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(undent) Much better. Great stuff. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 21:45, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
