Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked   are unassessed

Infobox and lede edit

  • "and third in the line" → "and is third in the line"
  • Comma after "the British throne"
  • "Due to an expectation that he will become king one day," → "Due to his rank in the line of succession, and the subsequent expectation that he will one day become the British monarch,"

Birth and christening edit

Education edit

  • "In January 2016, George started his education at the Westacre Montessori School Nursery," → "George's formal education began in January 2016, when, at the age of two, he began attending the Westacre Montessori School Nursery,"
  • "He is known as George Cambridge at school." → "He attends the school under the name of George Cambridge."

Official appearances edit

  • WL first instance of Australia
  • Cite [24] immediately after the quoted sentence with "the star of the show", per MOS:INTEGRITY
  • "George and his younger sister Charlotte"
  • WL first instances of Canada, Poland, and Germany
  • Expand on the UEFA Euro 2020 sentence: I see in the source that it was the second game he attended, and that he was called the "good-luck charm" because England won both games
  • Also WL UEFA Euro 2020

In the media edit

  • "The "Prince George effect", the "royal baby effect", is a term used to describe clothing and products used by George selling better than before." → "The "Prince George effect", sometimes known as the "royal baby effect", is a term used to describe an uptick in sales of clothing and other products used by George."
  • "the dressing gown that he wore"
  • WL dressing gown
  • "in the legume's sales" → "in sales of the legume"
  • Move the first paragraph around so that the sentence about GQ is the second-to-last, right before the Tatler list. That way, the "Prince George effect" is immediately followed by examples, and the two best-dressed lists go together
  • "George's parents are adamant that he should grow up as privately as possible." → "George's parents have been adamant about maintaining their son's privacy as he grows up."
  • The BBC article lists examples of these "crossed lines"; one or two would be good to include

Title and style edit

  • Since this is only one sentence and was announced shortly after his birth, I would move it to "Birth and christening", as a sentence following On 24 July, his name was announced as George Alexander Louis.

In popular culture edit

  • I would combine this section with "In the media" and include a topic sentence along the lines of "Fictional versions of George have occurred in popular culture as well."
  • "In the book Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the Queen, written to celebrate the 90th birthdays of both the fictional character Winnie-the-Pooh and the Queen in 2016, Prince George has an appearance in the story when Piglet presents him with a red balloon." → "The 2016 children's book Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the Queen, written in honor of the 90th birthdays of both Queen Elizabeth II and the fictional character of Winnie-the-Pooh, features a cameo appearance from Prince George, whom Piglet presents with a red balloon."
  • "In 2021, an animated sitcom called The Prince was released in which George is the protagonist. The Prince focuses on an eight-year-old Prince George who makes life hard for his family and the British monarchy. His character is voiced by the show's creator Gary Janetti." → "The 2021 animated sitcom The Prince stars a fictionalized eight-year-old Prince George (voiced by showrunner Gary Janetti) who makes life difficult both for his family and for the British monarchy."

Ancestry edit

  • Unreferenced – I'd recommend adding the reference to the header that says "Ancestors of Prince George of Cambridge"

References edit

  • Good

General comments edit

  • Three images are used, all of which are relevant to the article and have been confirmed as properly licensed for use on Wikipedia
  • There has been some vandalism, but no evidence of edit warring or anything else that would show cause for concern with regards to stability
  • Earwig score is good at 11.5%, with the highest numbers attributed to proper nouns that fall within WP:LIMITED

Putting on hold for now, ping me if there are any questions. — GhostRiver 16:36, 3 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

No updates from nominator in 7 days. Their last edit was August 19. Closing this as unsuccessful for now, although I see other editors have been working. They are welcome to take these suggestions and re-nominate at their leisure. — GhostRiver 22:31, 10 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
@GhostRiver Apologies, I've been sick for the past few months. All changes have been made. Ardenter (talk) 20:09, 9 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
Ardenter I hope that you're feeling better. Since this article has been failed, your next step should be to re-nominate, and an uninvolved reviewer will take over and possibly add more comments. — GhostRiver 00:12, 10 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
