I will review this article. -- Cirt (talk) 19:41, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since Cirt's busy with other matters, I will review this article, hopefully soon. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 05:42, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Here are the issues I found:

  • Done "From 1946 to 1991 known as Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Russian: Министерство иностранных дел), or for short, MFA." sentence fragment
  • Done "but the MER also represented the country abroad and participated in talks with foreign delegations on behalf of the Soviet government." not sure if 'but' is the right word choice, since both parts of the sentence seem to connect.
  • Done "economic interests were carried out joinly with" jointly
  • Done "overal Soviet consular" overall
  • Done "Notable goals adopted by the Collegium was" were
  • Done "Further, the Collegium" furthermore
  • Done "This joint gathering led to more participations" participation, unless you meant participants
  • Done "This organ also discussing" discussed
  • Done "there were no longer any distinction between" was
  • Done "structure as following:" as follows:
  • Done "for propaganda purposes and so-called "active measures" then other non-Soviet affiliated foreign ministries" than other
  • Done "and the use accusations and derogatory terminology," use of
  • Done "the Soviet MER, had a much higher budget than" no comma needed
  • Done "Andrei Gromyko notes in his memoirs," noted; make sure no present tense like that is in article.
  • Done "He's ideas" His ideas
  • Done Getting someone from WP:GOCE to copyedit this would be a bonus, since I may have missed a thing or two.

I'll put the article on hold. When the issues are fixed, I'll either pass it or request an outside copyeditor browse through the article first; that I'll sleep on. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 05:15, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Now that the article's been copyedited, I will pass this article as a GA. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 03:21, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
