GA Reassessment edit

I've put this article up for GA reassessment because of its severe lack of citations in many sections. Sorry, but the lack of citations is just too much (even less than bromine, which is a mere C-class). Nergaal has also commented that if this article was sent to GAR, it would probably be rerated as C, so I've been bold. Lanthanum-138 (talk) 13:40, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
- Now it does have more citations than Br. (But not many more.) Lanthanum-138 (talk) 07:13, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
To check this against the current GA criteria:

- I really don't know, since there are so few citations. Some could be OR.
- There's now only one paragraph with next to no references, so I'll put this on hold first. Lanthanum-138 (talk) 07:15, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

The referencing needs a lot of work. Thanks, Lanthanum-138 (talk) 13:40, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
Comments edit
Hello? Anybody here? Lanthanum-138 (talk) 09:25, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
- Hello back. How have the references been going? FREYWA 04:02, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
- This is much better. However, there are still huge areas of text (e.g. Organochlorine compounds) with next to no references. This article should really follow the "one ref per para" rule. Lanthanum-138 (talk) 07:12, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, nothing has been done for over a week. (I've put this on hold for too long.) I'll have to delist this until things get done. :-( Lanthanum-138 (talk) 06:17, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Follow on to GAR edit
I've changed the tagging. That section links a main article organochloride with refs that should be helpful to supporting the section, but I don't have ready access to them right now. There may be helpful source material for the section in:
