Talk:Portuguese conquest of French Guiana/GA2
GA Reassessment
[edit]Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch
As mentioned in the talk page earlier this year, this article has coverage problems. Although the content probably should be primarily focused on the accomplishments of Captain Yeo and the importance of the battle to the invading British forces, the accomplishments and contributions of Portuguese and Brazilian forces are barely mentioned. There is not enough coverage in the aftermath for the importance of this outcome to France and Portugal. There is also no coverage of the importance of the experience gained from this battle for the Brazilian force as it relates to Brazil's eventual path to independence from Portugal. The aftermath and the arrival of Topaze is also not mentioned in the lead. This article does not meet the GA criteria 1b and 3a.
The worldwide view tag has also been up for nearly a year, the editors agreed last year that coverage was a problem that would be difficult to fix given lack of sources, and there has been no attempt to improve the coverage this year. This article needs to be delisted for now. Aaron north (talk) 00:32, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
