Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.

If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)

I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I will use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.

Best of luck! you can also use the {{done}} tag to state when something is addressed. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs)

Please let me know after the review is done, if you were happy with the review! Obviously this is regarding the article's quality, however, I want to be happy and civil to all, so let me know if I have done a good job, regardless of the article's outcome.

Immediate Failures

[edit]
  • It is a long way from meeting any one of the six good article criteria -
  • It contains copyright infringements -
  • It has, or needs, cleanup banners that are unquestionably still valid. These include{{cleanup}}, {{POV}}, {{unreferenced}} or large numbers of {{citation needed}}, {{clarify}}, or similar tags. (See also {{QF-tags}}). -
  • It is not stable due to edit warring on the page. -
[edit]
The scribd is just a photocopy of a court statement so it has court authority.
Jezebel too is just reporting on the issuing of the warrant, again not in doubt.
I really don't know much about court records, but could we not link to the documents, rather than a third party site? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 11:13, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I don't either. There doesn't seem to be much of a system for publishing the court documents in searchable form. The national newspapers give the year of birth so using and citing that. Removed the Jezebel source, the claim is at best tangential to the article.

Prose

[edit]

Lede

[edit]
Removed.
He travelled to numerous Western countries.
You're right, it's "was", as the next sentence makes clear.
Good point. Added.

General

[edit]
Text and infobox now matched.
Done.
Done.
Good point. Done.
Done.
Done.
Done.
Fixed.

Comments

[edit]
  • Automated note - If you fancy returning the favour, I have outstanding GA nominations that require reviewing at WP:GAN. I'd be very grateful if you were to complete one of these, however it's definitely not mandatory. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs)
    • Not much here to judge. WP:NPOV could be a slight issue, the article clearly labels an antagonist, but so does secondary sources, so I don't have a massive issue with it. I'll put on hold, please let me know about the reliability of the refs. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 11:09, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks. The facts of his life have been stated as shown in major newspapers in America and Europe; almost any fact could be given a string of reliable sources if needed, so I'm confident the article is reliable. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:13, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Painless. Passing. Well done. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 13:17, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
