Review

[edit]
  1. Well-written:
  2. Criteria Notes Result
    (a) (prose) The 2000s section needs cleanup. Beyond typos like dealth, you're failing to tell the story here. I think the sources show that there was a break between the Pima County (Tucson) group recognized by the national party and the splinter Maricopa County (Tempe) Gila River valley group, which somehow retained recognition by Arizona, which is easier that referring to "the party recognized" and "the party not recognized". It was the splinter group that then sought to end open primaries in Arizona so independents couldn't drive the LP platform in AZ. I would also revwrite the 2004 section as it's a run-on sentence. The party asserted that staff at ASU, who were employees of the State, should not have solicited donation for a primary excluding the LP candidate. You still have a run-on sentence: "Arizona continued its recognition of the rival faction when it gave the Libertarian presidential ballot access to author L. Neil Smith, who failed to win the national party's nomination, was supported by the rival group, which was upheld after a lawsuit filed by the national party and Harry Browne who would be forced to file as independents, but due to the short time frame were unable to appear on the ballot." That ought to be two or three sentences. Pass Pass
    (b) (MoS) The names of current LP office holders should not be bold. Pass Pass
  3. Verifiable with no original research:
  4. Criteria Notes Result
    (a) (references) The AZ Central piece (cite 53) does not quote Judge Cindy Jorgenson, so your quotation is actually of Howard Fischer who wrote the piece, who was perhaps paraphrasing what the judge said. Please fix. Pass Pass
    (b) (citations to reliable sources) Citation 29 archived link points to the wrong article; please fix. Pass Pass
    (c) (original research) I think you have an error of fact regarding Steiger's 1982 run. As I read the cited sources, the party gathered 5% of the vote statewide, but only fell short in Pima county, whereas your text claims they only met 5% in two counties, which you provide no citation to verify. Pass Pass
    (d) (copyvio and plagiarism) COPYVIO detector says it's fine. Pass Pass
  5. Broad in its coverage:
  6. Criteria Notes Result
    (a) (major aspects) Based upon the reliable sources, this covers the major aspects. Pass Pass
    (b) (focused) You can't say the article drifts from the subject. Pass Pass
  7. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
  8. Notes Result
    I would worry that articles like this would be influenced by the party itself or partisans on their behalf. This articles sticks to what the sources say, so there's no issue of POV. Pass Pass
  9. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
  10. Notes Result
    No edit wars or content disputes in evidence. Pass Pass
  11. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
  12. Criteria Notes Result
    (a) (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales) Both images are properly licensed. Pass Pass
    (b) (appropriate use with suitable captions) These are fine. Pass Pass

Result

Result Notes
Pass Pass I'll wait seven days for the required fixes to be made.
  • @Chris troutman: Hey I got some time to fix the article today due to a class being cancelled. I think I have fixed the problems you had so could you review the changes I made and see if the article meets the criteria to become a GA?

Discussion

[edit]
  1. ^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
  2. ^ Either parenthetical references or footnotes can be used for in-line citations, but not both in the same article.
  3. ^ This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
  4. ^ Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
  5. ^ Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
  6. ^ The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
