GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   I would like to see the lead somewhat longer, and better summarize the article. At minimum, the biography and worship should be mentioned in a lot greater detail. The lead can be twice the current length if possible. There are a number of one- (or two-) sentence paragraphs. These should be merged with other paragraphs. I believe I have addressed this issue through my copyedit—that also fixed the MoS errors. Take a look at the diff of my edit to learn some systematic errors; these included quotes in italics, mixing of BCE/CD and BC/AD (choose one), forced image size, use of a hyphen (-) instead of an emdash (—) for punctuation, and the odd capitalization. Under the performing section, this sentence in uncomprehensable: "Kathak dancer, Shovana Narayan explores Lucknow gharana of Kathak has several performances based on Krishna's life."

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   Not all the references are properly wrapped into {{cite}} templates.

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:

   I believe the matters discussed on the talk page have been addressed.

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars etc.:

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

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

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   A comprehenisve and interesting article; if fixed to match the comments on the lead, the performing arts and the cite template it should pass GA. Arsenikk ^(talk) 16:07, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

expanded lead, biography is covered by "a god-child, a prankster, a model lover, a divine hero and the Supreme Being."--Redtigerxyz (talk) 06:14, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
