@Riley1012 I apologize for the incredibly long wait, everything else will be addressed sooner or later! Here are the issues I've found so far, hope they can be addressed. Thank you. Arconning (talk) 14:34, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I heavily suggest using timephrases such as "the following year", "after a month", "a few days after". So that the article can look more like an article rather than a timeline for the information needed.
After the World Championships, Melnikova competed at the Arthur Gander Memorial in Chiasso, Switzerland., sentences like these are very much welcome.
Melnikova was added to Russia's junior national team in 2014 and made her international debut at the International Gymnix competition in Montreal., please source statement.
and floor exercise[47] In late June,, add period after floor exercise.
At the Russian Cup, she won the team, all-around, and balance beam gold medals., At the London World Cup, she finished fifth in the all-around., add corresponding months for statements.
in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil alongside, add comma after Brazil.
Due her successful junior career, add to after Due.
Later that month it was announced, add comma after month.
At the London World Cup, she finished fifth in the all-around., add month of competition
During the qualification round Melnikova fell off, add comma after round.
During the floor exercise final she performed a clean routine, add comma after final.
On vault she won a silver medal and on uneven bars, add comma after vault.
A week later Melnikova competed at the Russian Championships., add comma after later.
During the team final Melnikova competed, add comma after final.
floor exercise champion Mélanie de Jesus dos Santos and Eythora Thorsdottir of the Netherlands., add country like the latter.
During event finals, Melnikova won silver, add the after During.
This marked the first time Russia had won the Olympic team gold, as their previous team titles are accredited to the Soviet Union., add note for this since the gold medal got accredited to the Russian Olympic Committee and not Russia.
Replace refs [47], [51], [61], [73], [85], [102], and [106]. Articles from TASS are considered to be generally unreliable sources. See WP:TASS.
@Arconning: I think it would be difficult for me to replace these sources (and if I did, it would likely be from other Russian state-sponsored media). I can see why TASS should not be used for political topics, but I don't think political bias is a factor here. What these sources are being used for is to show who was named to certain teams, who was injured, who won a certain medal, etc. Let me know what you think.
Fair enough. Conditional pass.
Hopefully replace ref [1], article seems dodgy. There are probably more sources with the subject's height.
Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked are unassessed
