Nominator(s): Stingray Trainer (talk)

Gallipoli Campaign (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Submitting this article for A-Class review. It is an extremely comprehensive, well written and well researched article that covers a major campaign of the First World War. It is a high traffic article, being viewed more than 800,000 times in the last year and is likely the starting point for many thousands of peoples research. It has recently undergone a Peer Review process (Gallipoli Campaign) that made some good changes and is ready for further analysis. Hopefully one day it may be ready for FA nomination.

Question: I'll ask the question which doomed the recent FAC Stingray Trainer started for this article: do the editors who have worked on this article the most support the nomination, and are currently in a position to follow up on comments? I note that Stringray Trainer has never edited the article, nor started a discussion of these nominations on the article's talk page so this may also be out of process.

G'day, I'm sorry, but I am not really keen to work on an ACR at this time. Not sure if AC or Keith are interested, though. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 11:52, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the interest in the article Stingray Trainer. For what its worth I am willing to assist with this review where I can but won't be able to make any guarantees due to other demands on my time and enthusiasm. Anotherclown (talk) 12:07, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Image review

  • Suggest scaling up all maps
  • File:G.C._18_March_1915_Gallipoli_Campaign_Article.jpg should include tags for all included images, particularly those that are not independently on Commons
  • File:Landing_French-Gallipoli.jpg: when/where was this first published?
  • File:Cape_Helles_landing_map.jpg: what is the source of the data in this image?
  • File:AE2_(AWM_H17538).jpg: that URAA tag requires a publication date. Same with File:Lone_Pine_(AWM_A02025).jpg
  • File:OttomanBatteryAtGallipoli.jpg: if this was created by a news service, why is it a government work?
  • File:French_75_gun_at_Cape_Helles_1915.jpg: where was this first published and what was the author's date of death?
  • File:Gallipoli_Battlefield_(15399670914).jpg: what is the copyright status of the statue itself? Same with File:Gallipoligrave.jpg, File:Çanakkale_Martyrs_Memorial_-_panoramio.jpg. Nikkimaria (talk) 13:44, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks for looking over these, I've made changes where I can but most I cannot address as I didn't upload them and don't know much about their provenance save what is currently available in commons. In regards to each of the concerns though:
      • File:G.C._18_March_1915_Gallipoli_Campaign_Article.jpg should include tags for all included images, particularly those that are not independently on Commons
        • I've included tags where I know them but not all have been addressed. Anyone else with any clues about these?
      • File:Landing_French-Gallipoli.jpg: when/where was this first published?
      • File:Cape_Helles_landing_map.jpg: what is the source of the data in this image?
        • Unsure. I would only be guessing unfortunately as I didn't draft it.
      • File:AE2_(AWM_H17538).jpg: that URAA tag requires a publication date. Same with File:Lone_Pine_(AWM_A02025).jpg
      • File:OttomanBatteryAtGallipoli.jpg: if this was created by a news service, why is it a government work?
      • File:French_75_gun_at_Cape_Helles_1915.jpg: where was this first published and what was the author's date of death?
        • Added author details now. No idea as to when it was first published though.
      • File:Gallipoli_Battlefield_(15399670914).jpg: what is the copyright status of the statue itself? Same with File:Gallipoligrave.jpg, File:Çanakkale_Martyrs_Memorial_-_panoramio.jpg.

Coordinator note: This appears to be a premature nomination and the nominator is not actively involved in the article's development. Given that nobody else appears keen to adopt the article, I'm closing this review. Anybody with access to the source material who is in a position to address reviewers' commentary may renominate at any time; if you need help or advice, please don't hesitate to ask on my talk page or at WT:MHC.
