Greetings, folks. I just stumbled upon this article, found it interesting and decent, and decided to review it. Let's get the road on the show! Horsesizedduck (talk) 00:30, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Start edit

First impressions:

  • Article seems rather well-sourced. Will possibly add hours to the expected review time. Quite nice.
  • Spotted tricky sentences, one or two with unclear meaning. Will ask for corrections.
Rather than detailing here you might find it quicker to tag bomb the article with "[clarification needed]" after each tricky or unclear sentence and if I cannot see why something is unclear I will ask you to add a reason. Chidgk1 (talk) 07:08, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Images look fine.
  • Tricky section spotted - Greenhouse gas emissions. Lacking on sources?
The excerpt is from the lead of Greenhouse gas emissions by Turkey and I thought putting cites in the lead would be too much clutter. After that article has been copyedited by GOCE I hope to put it for FAC. So those reviewers may comment on whether lead should have cites or not. Is that OK?

  • Stable. Interested editor spotted?
Glad you are interested too. Chidgk1 (talk) 06:46, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Will resume review in around 10 - 12 hours, hopefully. All are welcome to join. Horsesizedduck (talk) 01:00, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Continuation edit

Returning to resume the review.

Encountered nominator! Good to see you @Chidgk1:!! Let's get to work! The article looks pretty good to me.

Small report:

I have made some changes to try and clarify but if still unclear please put a tag back on this time with a reason what is confusing Chidgk1 (talk) 16:41, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • I will examine the use of the excerpt as we proceed;
  • References seem pretty reliable, but I'd like for the ones in Turkish to be signalled, and I'd like some opinions from speakers of the language;
I asked at the Turkish Wikipedia environment project a while ago https://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikiproje_tart%C4%B1%C5%9Fma:%C3%87evre about reliable sources but got no reply - it seems inactive. However I have now translated all the titles on the Turkish sources. If any statement which only has a Turkish source looks dubious let me know and I will try and find a source in English.

  • Ticked some more aspects off the list;

Let's keep it up. Horsesizedduck (talk) 11:51, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

I will now mark the sentences I find problematic with the tag. I'll see about fixing some myself if needed. Horsesizedduck (talk) 13:32, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Taking Balance edit

@Chidgk1: I think it is a good time to regroup here and take stock of what is left to do:

  • You have addressed most of the issues I flagged, in adequate manner;
  • The translation of the titles from Turkish has helped make the referencing in this page clearer, and I am largely convinced everything here is properly sourced per GA criteria;

As a result, I believe this article is fit for GA status. If you, or any other editor following the process, would like to suggest more changes, I will give you some time to intervene. If there is no opposition, I will then pass the article.

I await reply, and thank you for your work and dedication. Horsesizedduck (talk) 17:28, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Putting the article on hold. Will likely pass in 2-3 days, as ongoing work finishes; 7 days feels unnecessary. Horsesizedduck (talk) 19:47, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
