Criteria

GA review (see here for criteria)

---

I am placing this article on hold pending the fixing of one {{fact}} tag in the "Remote Control" section. References are important!--Unionhawk ^{Talk E-mail} 21:27, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   minor MoS issues, such as: date linking. Minor prose issues, such as use of contractions, but, these issues aren't enough for me to fail the article on this criterion.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   1 {{fact}} tag found in Remote Control section.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

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):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   On hold for one fact tag, which can be easily fixed.

I edited that paragraph. Parts of it were old news - meaning some of the challenges were corrected with later software updates. And frankly I could not find a reliable source (e.g., aside from forums and hacker sites) that mentioned the limitations of the remote. To a a degree, it's a little like people complaining that a Porsche 911 doesn't get good gas mileage when towing a trailer. Sure the limited remote comes up, but it's tangential to the core of the article and the appliance.Mattnad (talk) 23:33, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Warrior4321's comments

I'd like to add a few things that were not mentioned. Warrior4321 03:38, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

• The Wikilink Jeff Carlson leads to a disambiguation page.
• The lead's second paragraph needs to be expanded, as the article constitutes of 33336 characters currently. According to WP:LEAD, the article should have two to three paragraphs.
• Reference 127 is dead.

• I think I've address all of these. The most obvious is the lead. Let me know what you think. Mattnad (talk) 23:02, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

• Looks good to me. I'm going to go ahead and Pass the article.--Unionhawk ^{Talk E-mail} 01:43, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
