Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked are unassessed

Infobox and lede

"and third in the line" → "and is third in the line"
Comma after "the British throne"
"Due to an expectation that he will become king one day," → "Due to his rank in the line of succession, and the subsequent expectation that he will one day become the British monarch,"

Birth and christening

WL the first instance of press conference
Also WL the first instances of Bermuda and New Zealand
"that the birth" → "that George's birth"

Education

"In January 2016, George started his education at the Westacre Montessori School Nursery," → "George's formal education began in January 2016, when, at the age of two, he began attending the Westacre Montessori School Nursery,"
"He is known as George Cambridge at school." → "He attends the school under the name of George Cambridge."

Official appearances

WL first instance of Australia
Cite [24] immediately after the quoted sentence with "the star of the show", per MOS:INTEGRITY
"George and his younger sister Charlotte"
WL first instances of Canada, Poland, and Germany
Expand on the UEFA Euro 2020 sentence: I see in the source that it was the second game he attended, and that he was called the "good-luck charm" because England won both games
Also WL UEFA Euro 2020

In the media

"The "Prince George effect", the "royal baby effect", is a term used to describe clothing and products used by George selling better than before." → "The "Prince George effect", sometimes known as the "royal baby effect", is a term used to describe an uptick in sales of clothing and other products used by George."
"the dressing gown that he wore"
WL dressing gown
"in the legume's sales" → "in sales of the legume"
Move the first paragraph around so that the sentence about GQ is the second-to-last, right before the Tatler list. That way, the "Prince George effect" is immediately followed by examples, and the two best-dressed lists go together
"George's parents are adamant that he should grow up as privately as possible." → "George's parents have been adamant about maintaining their son's privacy as he grows up."
The BBC article lists examples of these "crossed lines"; one or two would be good to include

Title and style

Since this is only one sentence and was announced shortly after his birth, I would move it to "Birth and christening", as a sentence following On 24 July, his name was announced as George Alexander Louis.

In popular culture

I would combine this section with "In the media" and include a topic sentence along the lines of "Fictional versions of George have occurred in popular culture as well."
"In the book Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the Queen, written to celebrate the 90th birthdays of both the fictional character Winnie-the-Pooh and the Queen in 2016, Prince George has an appearance in the story when Piglet presents him with a red balloon." → "The 2016 children's book Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the Queen, written in honor of the 90th birthdays of both Queen Elizabeth II and the fictional character of Winnie-the-Pooh, features a cameo appearance from Prince George, whom Piglet presents with a red balloon."
"In 2021, an animated sitcom called The Prince was released in which George is the protagonist. The Prince focuses on an eight-year-old Prince George who makes life hard for his family and the British monarchy. His character is voiced by the show's creator Gary Janetti." → "The 2021 animated sitcom The Prince stars a fictionalized eight-year-old Prince George (voiced by showrunner Gary Janetti) who makes life difficult both for his family and for the British monarchy."

Ancestry

Unreferenced – I'd recommend adding the reference to the header that says "Ancestors of Prince George of Cambridge"

No updates from nominator in 7 days. Their last edit was August 19. Closing this as unsuccessful for now, although I see other editors have been working. They are welcome to take these suggestions and re-nominate at their leisure. — Ghost River 22:31, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@GhostRiver Apologies, I've been sick for the past few months. All changes have been made. Ardenter (talk) 20:09, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ardenter I hope that you're feeling better. Since this article has been failed, your next step should be to re-nominate, and an uninvolved reviewer will take over and possibly add more comments. — Ghost River 00:12, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
