Comments[edit]

  • For criterion 1B: The lead section is far too short for an article of this length. I'd recommend that it be about twice as long, maybe.
  • For criterion 2B: What is the evidence that chemicool.com and whatever this is are reliable? (All the other sources look reliable).
  • For criterion 3A: The article is slightly on the short side (especially the occurrence, production, and biological role sections). However, this is not an FA nomination and I understand that the rare earth elements are often rather obscure, so I won't hold back the nomination for this.
  • For criterion 6A: I am a bit curious as to why we have an image with a non-commercial license on the article, but it's also a Featured Picture, so I'm probably missing something.

That's all. Thank you for nominating. King Jakob C2 16:41, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Checklist[edit]

  • Well written
    • The prose is clear and concise, respects copyright laws, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
    • It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
  • Verifiable with no original research
    • It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
    • It provides in-line citations from reliable sources for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines.
      • Chemicool is ref'd by reliable sources. When I have time I will check which of those original sources can fit in better. The second one is more sketchy. I will try to find the original source behind this info, as it certainly looks like legitimate info.  Doing... Double sharp (talk) 16:01, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Broad in its coverage
    • It addresses the main aspects of the topic.
    • It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail .
      • I'm not so sure about this now. I read the first paragraph and I'm already confused. TL The Legend (talk) 04:53, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Incidentally, I'm certainly not going to sillily follow the lede here and edit the Er and Ho articles' ledes to call them the preantepenultimate and propreantepenultimate lanthanides! Double sharp (talk) 07:53, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Or call Dy the suprapropreantepenultimate lanthanide. Or Tb the ultrasuprapropreantepenultimate lanthanide! TL The Legend (talk) 04:53, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
