I will be picking up the review of this one - both for the Wiki Cup and the GA cup as well. I will be making my review comments over the next couple of days.

Side note, I would love some input on a Featured List candidate (Mexican National Light Heavyweight Championship) and a Featured Article candidate (CMLL World Heavyweight Championship). I am not asking for Quid pro Quo, but all help is appreciated.

  • First comment - the primary source tag is appropriate, it's got very few secondary/tertiary sources that it really needs, there is only one right now and it's for one incident. So I will go through and provide a review but this is critical for GA status, cannot pass without more independent sources.  MPJ-US  04:35, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

I like to get this checked out first, I have found issues using this that has led to quick fails so it's important this passes muster.

  • WP:LEAD indicates that an article this size should have 1-2 paragraphs, I would like GAs to strive for two.

Sources/verifiable

edit
  • This is where it fails, there is no significant, independent coverage shown here. There is ONE non-primary source and that's more about the hacking incident than the school.
  • This needs to be improved if there is any hope of becoming a GA  N

Broad in coverage

  • TBD

Neutral

edit
  • A large degree of promotional material was trimmed after this was nominated for GA - it's almost a totally different article that's there now than when it was nominated. I am a bit concerned about this,

  • @Huskers110110: - I am going to put this review on hold right now, the sources need to be addressed and fairly quickly too or it'll be failed within a couple of days. If you show you are serious about making this a Good Article by providing sources I will resume the review then.  MPJ-US  21:44, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
