At the lowest reaches of Special:Longpages (#998 ranking at this edit), I came across this profile of a Romanian children's writer. Should be GA-ready soon, and made the rounds at WP:Did you know last August.

I note here that you have never made an edit to this article. It's a huge article, more than 135 kilobytes long, with 256 citations, quite a few of which are in Romanian. It would better if the main contributor, User:Dahn, requested a review, because he or she would be in the best position to make changes based on a reviewer's recommendations. That said, the article seems quite impressive on a quick read. Here is a very short and incomplete list of superficial things that need attention:
- Nothing should be redlinked more than once in the article. Some are, Cartea Românească and The Story of the Pig, for example.
- The tools in the toolbox at the top of this review page find three dead links in the citations.
- Page ranges take en dashes rather than hyphens. I ran a script to fix these.
- I'd suggest trying to get the article down to 100 kilobytes by one method or another. Reader fatigue sets in when articles get as long as this one.
I hope these suggestions prove helpful. If so, please consider reviewing another article, especially one from the PR backlog at WP:PR; that is where I found this one. I don't usually watch the PR archives or check corrections or changes. If my comments are unclear, please ping me on my talk page. Finetooth (talk) 00:23, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
