Hi! I will be reviewing this article for GA status, and should have the full review up shortly. Dana boomer (talk) 02:16, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   • Lots of short paragraphs in the body of the article. Not a huge deal, but would make for smoother reading if some of them were combined.
   • Lead "serving from 1963 to 1967. After serving". Repetition.
   • Early life, "joined the law firm of Trimble, Soyars, and Breathitt." Did the law firm include the Breathitt name before he joined (was there a family member there?) or was the name added when he joined?
   • Breathitt's quest for a revised state constitution is mentioned several times. However, it's never described what he wished changed in the document. Would it be possible to include a brief mention of this, or would that be getting way off topic?
   • Later life and death, "law firm of Wyatt, Tarrant, and Combs." Is this Combs any relation to the governor that Breathitt worked under?

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

This is a great article, and I am passing it to GA status. I had a few comments and questions as I was reading through, but they are all very minor, picky things and more FAC-worthy than GAN-worthy, so I am not asking that they be resolved before passing this article. Nice work on another entry in the Kentucky governors series! Dana boomer (talk) 03:03, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
