Good Article Status - Review Criteria

A good article is—

  1. Well-written:
  2. (a) the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct; and
    (b) it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.[1]
  3. Verifiable with no original research:
  4. (a) it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;
    (b) reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose);[2]
    (c) it contains no original research; and
    (d) it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.
  5. Broad in its coverage:
  6. (a) it addresses the main aspects of the topic;[3] and
    (b) it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
  7. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
  8. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
  9. [4]
  10. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
  11. [5]
    (a) media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content; and

Discussion edit

@TryKid:

  • "In this Indian name, the name Chakravarti is a patronymic, not a family name, and the person should be referred to by the given name, Rajagopalachari." is this needed at the top? It pops in Chakravarti when there in no clue what it is. If it is not required to put up something like this at the top please remove it.
  • "He died on Christmas Day in 1972 at age 94." Christmas day should be December 25 unless there is a specific correlation. Not every mention of December 25 deserves to be replaced with Christmas day, there should be a good reason to do so.
Gbohoadgwwian I've removed Christmas day and replaced with 25 December. On the hatnote, I think it is appropriate. Many articles have hatnotes like this and it clears up how to address Rajaji. It may not be clear immediately but after the reader reads the first line it should be clear what the note means. Thank you. TryKid (talk) 09:14, 26 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • "Indian independence activist" I think activist is not suitable, it should be freedom fighter.
  • "Rajaji was instrumental in initiating negotiations between Gandhi and Jinnah" Rajaji popsup suddenly, make it uniform.
  • "among nationalists", can this be expanded, who? --Gian ❯❯ Talk 16:43, 9 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Status query edit

It has been over three months since this page was edited, yet I see no edits to address the issues raised by Gian except for replacing Christmas Day with 25 December. (TryKid hasn't edited on Wikipedia since 8 September.) Further, this was an out-of-process nomination: TryKid had not made any significant contributions to the article, yet did not check with those who had to see whether the article was ready to be nominated per the Good Article nomination instructions. If there isn't any action taken by the end of the year, my recommendation would be to close the nomination as unsuccessful. BlueMoonset (talk) 18:18, 23 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Closing nomination and review edit

This review has now been open for over 200 days, and hasn't been edited for over half of them. As the reviewer (now known as Jaydayal after a username change in September) has not edited Wikipedia since 22 November, and TryKid has still not resumed editing since last doing so on 8 September, and given the issues mentioned in my post over three weeks ago, I'm declaring this nomination and review abandoned, and closing it as unsuccessful.

  1. ^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
  2. ^ Either parenthetical references or footnotes can be used for in-line citations, but not both in the same article.
  3. ^ This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
  4. ^ Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
  5. ^ Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
  6. ^ The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
