- Pass/Fail:
- The primary issue I see initially is the relatively short lead. The lead should summarize the whole article; right now a basic description and material on conservation and culture are missing.
- The prose is choppy and many sentences should be combined. Example "The New World vultures comprise seven species in five genera. The genera are Coragyps, Cathartes, Gymnogyps, Sarcoramphus, and Vultur."

- "Instead, they lay eggs on bare surfaces."; needs expanding. Does it nest on ledges on cliffs? Snowman (talk) 10:45, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
- I've copy-edited the article for smoothness, so it's a little easier to read. Overall it seems quite a reasonable article in terms of coverage; my main feeling is that the lead should be extended slightly to reflect the article's contents, for instance of fossils.

- Failed, almost entirely due to the short lead. Danger High voltage! 00:19, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
