GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- In the Pan Fish section, this sentence ---> "When the market price of salmon collapsed in 2001[23] Pan Fish encountered extreme financial difficulties", is there a period missing?
- Check. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 19:27, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
- In the Pan Fish section, this sentence ---> "When the market price of salmon collapsed in 2001[23] Pan Fish encountered extreme financial difficulties", is there a period missing?
- B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
- I noticed that dates in the references are linked and it would be best if they were unliked, per here. In the Merger section, the date "2006-07-06" needs to be properly formatted and also unlinked. Question: Since the article is talking about a Norwegian business, shouldn't the dates be international? The article tends to have red links, if they don't link to anything, it would be best to unlink them, per here.

- Thanks for the review. I have addressed most of the concerns, except those mentioned here: First, I presume the fair use related to the logo being in .svg-format; all I can find is that .svg-format is permitted if rendered in low resolution (as is the case here). Second, the five red links all are "to something that could plausibly sustain an article." (from WP:REDDEAL), and there is no GA criteria (unlike in FA) that says plausible red links should be delinked, so I would recommend the red links stay. Last, I don't know how to remove the linking to dates in the {{cite web}} templates—if you do please inform me and I can make the corrections. Arsenikk (talk) 18:20, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, that's my bad there, I forgot to fix the fair-use section. Sorry. I removed the dates, see here. The rest is fine and done for. Thank you to Arsenikk for getting the stuff I left at the talk page, because I have gone off and placed the article as GA. Congrats. ;) -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 19:23, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
