Please respond to my concerns at your convenience by starting a new line below each concern. I will striket my concerns as they are resolved.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:47, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • I feel a bit of wanting for this subject. The article starts "Rachel Hannah Weisz . . . is an English film and theatre actress and fashion model." The article says nothing more than "During the final years in school, she started modelling." which is misspelled by the way. Is there any chance of finding any information about this part of her career? Who did she model for back then? Is she a current spokesperson for any fashion or cosmetics companies?
  • The article talks about her roots in theatre. Has she done any theatre work since college in West End or on Broadway. A quick scan at www.ibdb.com yields an award for The Shape of Things, which is mentioned in the article. However, in the filmography section, I think theatre work should either be separated or noted in the notes column. It is difficult for the lazy reader to determine her stage work.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:23, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • In general, I find my self looking at the various roles and thinking, was she any good at this or that. Many actor biographies start to become flush with critical commentary at about the time the quality level gets to GA. We know there are a lot of critical reviews that you are not mentioning. You may want to present those rather than just run through her roles.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 23:23, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I worked on that aspect adding the critical acclaim for her oscar-winning performance in The Constant Gardener and for The Whistleblower--Gunt50 (talk) 21:54, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Checklist

[edit]
GA review (see here for criteria)

This is a quality article that is on its way to FA. In order to make it there will need to be prose expansion to give the article more than a filmography chronology feel. More critical review will be needed.

  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    Needs more critical review of roles. See Clint Eastwood or Kate Winslet, which are two I have reviewed, for example. Technically, nothing is missing from the article because the basic element of each role is put forth in an encyclopedic manner, but the reader really should be given more.
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  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):
    Both images need {{personality rights}} tags. The latter image needs WP:CAPTION tweaking because it is not a full sentence and thus should not end with a period.
    Both are wrong now. Read WP:CAPTION#wording. If it is not a full sentence, it should not end in a period.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 01:33, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Both are now correct.--Gduwen (talk) 01:52, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    On hold
Additional outstanding issues

Everything is looking good for WP:GA. I will pass it now. For FA you will want to add more critical commentary and of course, keep it up to date. You did well at responding. I was glad to give this one some attention.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 02:47, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
