Open review. Will start soon! Best wishes, MathewTownsend (talk) 19:48, 28 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Great, thanks. -- Khazar2 (talk) 20:31, 28 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(beginning)

  • "playing with the farm's animals" - what farm?
Her father was a buttermaker; clarified.
I've simply delinked diva.
  • "cohabited" - lived with? - is there an extra meaning to "cohabited"?
"Lived" is fine with me. -- Khazar2 (talk) 22:29, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Really, this is a wonderful article. I could criticize certain parts (e.g. Goodwin pages 223-224 seems to present a case that Eleanor was not homosexual, or primarily so) but I'm sure that discussion could go on and on. You have presented a concise summary of Hickok's life. Much appreciated!

GA review-see WP:WIAGA for criteria (and here for what they are not)

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    a. prose: clear and concise, respects copyright laws, correct spelling and grammar:
    b. complies with MoS for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, summary style and list incorporation:
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    a. provides references to all sources in the section(s) dedicated to footnotes/citations according to the guide to layout:
    b. provides in-line citations from reliable sources where necessary:
    c. no original research:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic:
    b. it remains focused and does not go into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
  4. Does it follow the neutral point of view policy.
    fair representation without bias:
  5. Is it stable?
    no edit wars, etc:
  6. 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:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    Pass!

Great job! MathewTownsend (talk) 23:33, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks both for the review and for your copyedits! I'll take another look at the Goodwin pages and see if I can add a bit more. -- Khazar2 (talk) 23:35, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
