• Article is new and definitely long enough. I like ALT3 best which is both interesting and cited inline. QPQ has been done. No evidence of copyvio, although I'm assuming good faith for the Spanish sources. Kingoflettuce (talk) 14:41, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Final

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

• Reference 2 is a dead link; it loops to a blank page on archive.org (which loops blank)
• My sense is that English readers are going to be unfamiliar with the concept of fado. It may be useful to include a short explanation in the lede.
• An overall read is that the lede might include a summary from Television, modelling and commercial appearances, Personal life and her volunteering. As one gets into the article in depth, a much stronger sense of her notability becomes apparent. So the lede might be expanded a bit.
• Reference 30 is a dead link and goes to a blank page on archive.org
• Reference 54 goves 'not found'.
• Lots of research, lots of checking on archive.org. Good work for a first GA submission!
  • Can we go over these issues?       --Whiteguru (talk) 09:50, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi Whiteguru, thanks again for the review and your encouraging words! See my responses below:

• Reference 2 is a dead link; it loops to a blank page on archive.org (which loops blank)

I did see the blank page but the page came up after refreshing my browser. I changed the archived version to archive.vn, which hopefully works better. Y

• My sense is that English readers are going to be unfamiliar with the concept of fado. It may be useful to include a short explanation in the lede.

Added. Y

• An overall read is that the lede might include a summary from Television, modelling and commercial appearances, Personal life and her volunteering. As one gets into the article in depth, a much stronger sense of her notability becomes apparent. So the lede might be expanded a bit.

Expanded lede.

This reads much better, now. Y

• Reference 30 is a dead link and goes to a blank page on archive.org

I see that reference 30 goes to her IMDb page, and the link worked fine. I did change the archive to archive.vn since that seems to work better. However, I also checked reference 29 (about the Grand Prix) and that was broken so changed to a different link. Maybe you were referring to that one? (Yes)

Works now with the redirect. Y

• Reference 54 gives 'not found'.

Also did not see an issue with that link, not sure why. Of course I can change it if it's unreliable. Is that the last reference in the paragraph, about the Porto hospital concert?

Works now with the redirect. Y

• Additional notes: After another copyediting pass I changed a few small things for example removed italization from Clube de Fado since it is the proper name of a venue. Y

That's all the work needed on this article. A good effort for your first GA. --Whiteguru (talk) 19:52, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
