GA Review

Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch

Well-written

• Creation and History section
  • Last two sentences of the opening paragraph seem repetitive. Rewrite.
  • For the lead sentence of the third paragraph on the Commission for the Reform of Nomenclature in Organic Chemistry, when was this proposed? Ditto for when the International Union of Chemistry ran this commission in the second sentence. In the last sentence of this paragraph, it is unclear. Please rewrite.
  • In the final paragraph's opening sentence, what involvement did IUPAC with the Allies during World War II? Sentence is unclear. For the second sentence on Germany being allowed back into IUPAC. Which one, West, East, or both? Please clarify.
• Committees and Governance section
  • Committee table shown onscreen, but not shown when printed out. What can be done to fix this?
• Nomenclature section
  • Add "...as mentioned in the Creation and History section." after "...compounds" in the lead sentence of the lead paragraph.
• Amino Acid and Nucleotide Base Codes.
  • Wikifiy DNA and RNA in the third sentence of the paragraph after the Alanine bullet point.
• Publications section - Non-series Books subsection.
  • Create articles for European Polymer Federation and Society of Polymer Science in Japan. Both are redlinked.

Factually accurate and verifiable

• Sources 52 and 53 are deadlinked. Please fix.
• Several sources have publications that are redlinked. Please create articles for these.

Broad

• Covers numerous aspects of chemistry and their relationships among other scientific disciplines.

Neutral

• Presents what IUPAC can do. No issues. Nomenclature important in the listings given how many students there are you take chemistry in school.

Stable

• Last edit done yesterday. Most edits prior to this were to assist in improving this to GA.

Images

• All images listed are valid.

Overall

• Hold. Good article. A few minor fixes and it should be ready for GA.
