Pre-GA Review Notes

[edit]

Good article, but in the WWII section, 'THe troop fought with the Division through northern France, and eventually Germany capturing town after town until the end of the war.' isn't exactly a great amount of detail or even encyclopaedic. Please add some actual details of what the Brigade did; just some facts from the Combat Chronicle would be enough. Skinny87 (talk) 10:37, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not 100% sure what exactly to add. The combat chronicle for the 95th Infantry Division details at a few points that some of the units did one thing and some did another. I'll add as much as I can, though. -Ed!(talk)(Hall of Fame) 15:27, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.

  1. Is it well written?
    A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
    In the Organization section, you might want to explain what "Headquarters and Headquarters Company" is. I mean, I know what it is, but how 'bout your reader. In the Reactivation section, this sentence ---> "The brigade prepares other units for mobilization, trains, assists, and supports them during pre-deployment exercises", "trains" do you mean like in "training"? If so, I would change it. Same section, "All members of the PRTs hae assembled for the training", something is very odd.
    "The Headquarters and Headquarters Company of the brigade is located at Fort Bragg, and acts as the command element for the formation, overseeing all subordinate brigades which are also located at the Fort." for clarification. Everything else,  Fixed -Ed!(talk)(Hall of Fame) 17:35, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Alright, check. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 19:12, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
    Dates need to be unlinked, per here. Throughout the article, link "Fort Bragg", "War in Afghanistan", "COL", "CSM", "Mechanized", and "public affairs" to their correspondence articles. The article tends to have red links, if they don't link to anything, it would be best to unlink them, per here. In the World War II section, the link "Company", do you mean it to the organization link or the military one? Same section, you might want to link "Stillwater, Oklahoma" once, per here. In the Reactivation section, it would be best if "Provincial Reconstruction Team" was followed by ---> (PRT), I mean, I know what it means, but how 'bout your reader. Same section, "In Fall of 2008", with seasons differing in different part of the world, a different wording than autumn or fall should be picked, per here. Same thing with the "spring" mention.
     Fixed
    Check. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 19:12, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?
    A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
    The link in Reference 13 shouldn't be in all capitals, per here.
     Fixed
    Check. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 19:12, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):
    C. It contains no original research:
    D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
    B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
  4. Is it neutral?
    It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
  5. Is it stable?
    It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
  6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:
    B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    If the statements above can be answered, I will pass the article. Good luck with improving this article!
