Pre-GA Comments:

• After a quick read-through of the article, I must admit that I am very impressed with the details mentioned in this article! I have very little to say in regards of correcting this article for the GA nomination process! Carbrera (talk) 21:32, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

Infobox

• You can add an alt description for the picture of Acquacotta in the infobox

• I believe it's already there, where it's written as "caption = Acquacotta soup|alt=Acquacotta soup". North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 15:41, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

History

Paragraph 1

• Could you mention in this paragraph that "Acquacotta is Italian for "cooked water"? Similar to how you mentioned it in the lead?

•  Done. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 15:56, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

Paragraph 2

• Could you reword the first sentence to "Acquacotta was partly created to make hard, stale bread edible.[5]"

• I rewrote the sentence to read: "Acquacotta was invented in part as a means to make stale, hardened bread edible." North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 15:59, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

• Since perhaps every reader of the article may not know what "pancetta" and "salt cod" is, I would provide a link to their respective articles please

•  Done. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 16:00, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

Paragraph 3

• Since the last sentence here is so short and "matter of fact", I would replace the complete stop/period after "creating acquacotta" with a semi-colon instead; then you would lowercase the 'v' in "variations" as well

•  Done. Makes sense. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 16:06, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

Ingredients

• Nothing to say here!

In contemporary times

• You may add an "oxford comma" after "fresh" in the first sentence if you'd wish; I'd prefer you do as you are listing things within a statement

•  Done. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 16:04, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

• Shouldn't "potato" be pluralized?

•  Done. This works better in the sentence as it's worded. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 16:04, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

• Shouldn't "vegetable" in "leaf vegetable/greens" be pluralized?

•  Done. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 16:04, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

Variations

• For the last sentence, I would recommend switching out the period/complete stop with a semi-colon instead, must like how I mentioned you should do in the "History" section

•  Done. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 16:09, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

End of GA Review:

Like I said previously, another fantastic article! I will allow seven days for you to make changes, but I have no doubt that you will take care of them within no time. Thanks again! Carbrera (talk) 21:32, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

I will be passing the article now; thanks for your cooperation during my Wiki break. Carbrera (talk) 22:45, 10 May 2016 (UTC)
