Criteria

[edit]

The six good article criteria:

  1. It is reasonable well written.
    the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct;
    • I only saw a small grammar correction needed, which I have fixed, as well as one of the wikilinks.
    • Otherwise, I can see no grammar or spelling errors.
    it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead, layout and word choice.
    • It seems to comply with the Manuals of Style.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    it contains a reference section, presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;
    • A reference section is included; the sources listed have all the information needed.
    • Is there a reason that the citations are author and page rather than author, date and page?
    all inline citations are from reliable sources;
    • Spot checks confirm Hildebrand, Röhr, & Steinmetz 1993 and Lyon 1979. AGF for offline resources that I do not have access to.
    it contains no original research;
    • All relevant statements have inline citations.
    it contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism;
    • Earwig gives a 2% chance of copyright violation, which is reported as "violation unlikely". The highest correlation is Conway's and is not significant,
  3. It is broad in its coverage
    it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
    • The article covers the main aspects of the vessel's specification and service.
    • There may be more information on page 33 of Hildebrand, Röhr, & Steinmetz 1993. Is there anything worth including?
    it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
    • The article looks compliant.
  4. It has a neutral point of view.
    it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to different points of view.
    • The article seems generally balanced, using both German and English sources.
  5. It is stable.
    it does not change significantly from day to day because of any ongoing edit war or content dispute.
    • There is no evidence of edit wars.
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    images are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content;
    • The image has appropriate PD tags.
    images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
    • The image is appropriate.
