  • Well-written  

a. the prose is clear and concise, it respects copyright laws, and the spelling and grammar are correct

b. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation

The article is well-written with no sentence or grammar errors.
  • Verifiable with no original research  

a. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline

b. 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

c. It contains no original research

The article uses a bunch of different sources, all of which checks out, but it seems the book sources referenced at #31, #40 and #41 is missing page numbers?
  • Broad in its coverage  

a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic

b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail

The article is broad in its coverage, stays on topic and does not tog into unnecessary detail.
  • Neutral  

It represents viewpoints fairly and without bias, giving due weight to each

The article is neutral with no personal statements or opinions.
  • Stable  

It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute

The article is stable, does not significantly change from day to day and is not the subject of edit wars or content disputes.
  • Illustrated  

a. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content

b. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions

The article is illustrated with one image in the infobox which contain the necessary status information. However, I'm curious as to why to only use one image of such small resolution and why that image? If she's a model who's been on the cover of Iron Man and Playboy there must be other images to choose from?
  • Pass, fail or hold?  
Because of the issues stated in the "Verifiable with no original research" and "Illustrated" sections I'm going to put it on hold and give the GA-nominator a chance to respond. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 15:31, 10 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
Okay thanks very much for the review! I've added two images to the article from her featured on magazine covers -- the article looks much better for your suggestion, Jonas Vinther, so thanks very much for that idea. As for the sources mentioned above, none are books: two are calendars and I've added page numbers for those, the other one is a photograph and the photographer is cited. Hopefully the article is now satisfactory. — Cirt (talk) 16:06, 10 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
Cirt, the article is better now and meets the GA-criteria. Awesome job. :) Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 16:11, 10 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
