On it. Zwerg Nase (talk) 08:56, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): 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 and other media, where possible and appropriate.

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

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

As with Salon Kitty, I will need to check some books in the library to give a definite statement on the quality of the article. My first feeling is, that there might be more information to find about an important person like him and so the article might not meet the criteria for scope. But I will check on that.

What I found so far is:

• In the lead, you say Schreck joined the SA in 1923, later you write 1921.
  • Typo, fixed. Jonas Vinther • (Click here to collect your price!) 22:28, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
• Section "Career in the SA": I find bully too colloquial.
  • Agreed, changed to "disrupt". Jonas Vinther • (Click here to collect your price!) 22:28, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
• Why is there a movie poster of Triumoh of the Will in this article? The caption is wrong, the SA did not feature heavily in the movie, since it was produced after the Night of the Long Knives. Schreck himself is not featured in the film, as far as I know.
  • My mistake; meant to add a poster of The Victory of Faith. Changed! Jonas Vinther • (Click here to collect your price!) 22:28, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
• Ref #7: Better just use a simple inline citation without putting the online sources you only use once in an extra category at the bottom. Same goes for Salon Kitty by the way.
  • This is pure individual opinion and depends completely on what the nominator favors. Look at Adolf Hitler for example, not a single inline citation. Jonas Vinther • (Click here to collect your price!) 22:28, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

  I guess you're right, it's a matter of taste. Zwerg Nase (talk) 17:06, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

So much so far, I will say more once I read up on him. Zwerg Nase (talk) 15:59, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

Zwerg Nase, like I explained on Salon Kitty, I will be going on vacation tomorrow. However, I will inform my friends that I have some GA-noms open at the moment and hope they will show initiate and jump with and assist me while I'm away if need be. Thanks for also taking the time to review this. Jonas Vinther • (Click here to collect your price!) 22:28, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Dear Jonas, thanks for your edits. I will be in the library later today, so maybe we can get the review done by today :) Zwerg Nase (talk) 08:54, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

Major points are taken care of. My main concern was 3a, but I could not find more information about him except for the fact that he was an actor before joining the SA. But since I don't consider that a vital piece on information on him, it is not holding me up from giving this article a pass. Congratulations! Zwerg Nase (talk) 17:09, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

Zwerg Nase, on behalf of myself and Jonas, thanks for the review. Kierzek (talk) 23:57, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
