Talk:Toyohara Kunichika/GA2

GA Review

• ", (1835 — 1900)" – remove the comma, and remove the spaces around the em dash
• The lead needs to be expanded. Keep the two paragraphs, but expand on them.
• I believe a space is missing in "for ukiyo-eactor-prints"?
• "i.e. woodblock" → "which are woodblock"
• "on June 5, 1835, in" – link this correctly per MOS:DATE
• "Like most artists of his era and genre" – this paragraph needs a reference
• "Examples of signatures" – use the Gallery tag for this section; have a look at Help:Gallery

GA Review Revisited

I have made extensive updates. I am waiting for a permission for a section discussing signatures, but that is something I can do in the future. I would say the article is now ready for GA review. Thank you for everyone's patience and assistance. --clhowson (talk) 00:29, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

• "on (June 5, 1835), in" → "on June 5, 1835, in"
• "Kunisada - 1865" → "Kunisada (1865)". Same goes for the other image captions.
• References need to be formatted per WP:CITE/ES; many of them are missing a publisher.

References 4, 6, 15, 19, 27, 35, and 41 are missing publishers. An example of web publishers can be found at Call_of_Duty_4:_Modern_Warfare#References. Gary King (talk) 16:19, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Web citations have been fixed. My images have suddenly reappeared. I consider the article good to go. --clhowson (talk) 15:28, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Please use em dashes for year ranges, like in "(1841-1898)", per WP:DASH. Gary King (talk) 00:21, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Now that I have done this, I find that the page you referred me to says:

Year ranges, like all ranges, are separated by an en dash (do not use a hyphen or slash (2005–08, not 2005-08 or 2005/08). A closing CE-AD year is normally written with two digits (1881–86) unless it is in a different century from that of the opening year (1881–1986).

Ah yes; first time I got that wrong – I posted that late at night. I fixed them. Page ranges in the references also need to use en dashes; for example, "pp 7-8" → "pp 7–8". Gary King (talk) 19:14, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I'm game. What next?

• Please expand the lead to better summarize the entire article, per WP:LEAD.
• Could you copyedit the article? Some things, like "on (June 5, 1835), in ", don't make sense, and should instead be "on June 5, 1835, in "
• "as "Toyohara Kunichika" was born "Ōshima Yasohachi" on" – remove the quotes
• commas are needed in some places for pause; for instance, "Little is known about his childhood, but young Yasohachi,"
• ""Kazunobu."" → ""Kazunobu"." – punctuation goes outside of quote if it is not appropriate inside them per WP:PUNC. Happens several times in the article.

Thank you, Gary. Next?

You have done excellent work on the article. Great job! I will now pass it for GA. Gary King (talk) 19:32, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
