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 Early life and law career section, there's something wrong with this sentence ---> "...but in 1993 after he wife became pregnant". In the Writing career section, "Appel was desperately trying to think of a story idea for show", what do you mean with "show"? Like, "to show", or something?- Check.
- B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
In the Writing career section, please link "Mona Simpson" to its correspondence article, as at the moment it stands out as a disambiguation. Same section, since he's American, "utilised" should be "utilized".- Check.
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?
- A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
There's a couple of sources missing accessdates. The link in Ref. 33 has changed, you might want to fix that.- Check.
- B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):
