I am checking that the article meets a few basic things listed at Wikipedia:Reviewing_good_articles before I do an in depth review:

  • The article has sources.
  • The article is not clearly POV
  • The article has no cleanup banners . (Update at 15:18, 2 October 2008 (UTC): I have added {{expand}} banner to the death section)
  • The article doesn't seem to be the subject of any major ongoing edit wars (there was a dispute a couple of months ago but that seems to be completely resolved)
  • The article doesn't specifically concern a rapidly unfolding current event without a definite endpoint

Review complete but more points may be added if they are found

Issues:

  • Per WP:LEAD, I think that the lead should be at least two paragraphs long. Anonymous101 (talk) 15:07, 2 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • I have added several {{fact}} tags to the article. Please provide verification for these facts. Anonymous101 (talk) 15:11, 2 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • I believe the sections entitled "Early life," "Other lectures and appearances," and "Death" are not long enough to address all the major issues. Anonymous101 (talk) 15:15, 2 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • YouTube is not a reliable source. Anonymous101 (talk) 15:21, 2 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • Considering it is the main thing Pausch is notable for is "The Last Lecture", I believe the article needs more information on it. Anonymous101 (talk) 15:24, 2 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • I think more information of the book version of "The Last Lecture" would be appropriate. Anonymous101 (talk) 15:24, 2 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • Maybe the article could go into more detail on all the awards Pausch won. Anonymous101 (talk) 15:34, 2 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
