GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   The only issues here is the statement that "She was not really called Queen by Appian", which is both too casual and unclear, and some comma/punctuation issues which can be sorted out by a quick copy/edit. Put citations after punctuation, not before.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

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

   No issues here, I think it is very well sourced.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   I think it's generally good, but I think some more biographical detail might be required - are approximate dates of birth/death recorded ? What happened to Illyria after her rule was "dismembered" ? It didn't become a Roman Province until 165 B.C.E. Who succeeded her ?

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

   No issues here.

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):

   This is picky, but I think you might want a more explanatory caption for the map of the Illryian wars - "A map showing...." maybe ?

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   I'm going to put this on hold pending improvements to the article. Good work so far ! Claritas § 19:47, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

• 1st wave of tweaking in accordance with the upper criteria - done! Er-vet-en (say) 06:58, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
• I've done some style editing myself, and, considering the obscurity of the topic and what little information is available, I think this meets WP:GAC. Claritas § 19:26, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
