Comments edit

With a prose size of only 6.7 KB (1,111 words), this couldn't go far wrong and it does meet all the GA criteria. It's well written and has a good layout with satisfactory sourcing. No style issues, no OR or POV. The lead is adequate as a summary and complies with the guideline but perhaps you could put another sentence or two into it.

The images are public domain and there are no copyvio issues. There is one thing I would say, though, about Judd's photo in the infobox. He looks disconcertingly like Oliver Reed, as Ollie was in the mid-seventies. The article passes GA. It's an interesting topic. Well done. No Great Shaker (talk) 09:32, 16 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
