You've been waiting way too long for a review. Let's do this! Basilisk4u (talk) 14:45, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Suitability of the nomination

Wikipedia:Good article nominations/Instructions include "Anyone may nominate an article to be reviewed for GA, although it is preferable that nominators have contributed significantly to the article and are familiar with its subject and its cited sources. Nominators who are not significant contributors to the article should consult regular editors of the article on the article talk page prior to a nomination." It does not appear that WikiEditCrunch has contributed anything to the article.[1] Also, there is no indication that they consulted any actual contributors to the article. This has come up in other "drive-by" GANs by the editor (Talk:The Doors/GA1, Talk:Vietnam War/GA1, etc.), which were quick failed. This article also has sections of unreferenced material, so it is difficult to tell what may be original research and therefore doesn't meet the verifiable criteria of the GA standards. —Ojorojo (talk) 19:27, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I can try to fix this (I wanted a GAN eventually...). I'd have otherwise removed the nomination. Depending on how far off this is from GA, I'd let you fail it if necessary. Though I certainly hope that's not the case. dannymusiceditor ^oops 22:52, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have decided to fail it given the lack of response from the nominator. Basilisk4u (talk) 13:04, 19 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
