GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

Everything good except some kind of cultural impact section I will explain.

Is it reasonably well written?
A. Prose quality:
Very good here.

B. MoS compliance:
Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
A. References to sources:

B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:

C. No original research:
Is it broad in its coverage?
A. Major aspects:
This is the only area where the article comes up short. I think you need a section that deals with the cultural impact of the Halo structure, even if all you put in is a "critical reception" section (such as the one in Covenant (Halo)). Just a paragraph with well cited comments from reviewers will be good.

B. Focused:
Is it neutral?
Fair representation without bias:
Is it stable?
No edit wars, etc:
Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:

B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
Overall:
Pass or Fail:
On hold until you add in the cultural impact. Best of luck! Malinaccier (talk) 05:14, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for the review. The lack of a "cultural reception" section is deliberate. We ended up merging Forerunner (Halo) into a newer article that is as yet incomplete (Factions of Halo). A problem we had to address was how to divide the rather meager information under the "critical reception" umbrella; in the end, we decided that it was most germane under the Forerunner themselves, not the ringworld articles, which is why it's lacking. --Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs^(talk) 13:41, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, I'll take your word for it and pass the article. Good job overall. Malinaccier (talk) 16:34, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
