GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:
    Nicely written. Only a couple of hairsplits:
    B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. Has an appropriate reference section:
    B. Citation to reliable sources where necessary:
    Everything's duly reffed with inline cites, but there are some inconsistencies in the cites:
    C. No original research:
    As far as I can tell. I can't access all of the sources.
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:
    As far as I'm aware
    B. Focused:
    The article seems to get to the point very well.
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:
    I'm not an expert on the subject, but I can detect no obvious bias.
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:
    B. Images are provided if possible and are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
    No images at all. Are there no pictures of the man that could be used with a Fair Use Rationale? No photos of the university?
    • I added a photo of the university and of one of his awards. I don't have any photos of him that are decent enough quality to upload under a fair use license and I haven't found any public domain images. I'm still looking but it may take awhile. Cla68 (talk) 12:47, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      The images look fine, and the licences check out. If you're planning on taking this article farther I'd recommend adding WP:ALTTEXT to the images. Curly Turkey (gobble) 23:12, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
I have fixed some of your suggestions. This is the first time I have seen the article and thought I would help out. Michael73072 (talk) 04:42, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
