Checking against GA criteria

GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   The lead does not adequately summarise the article. Please read WP:LEAD.

   Prose is reasonable.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

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

   References appear OK, but few mention him in more than passing as an author.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   As a biography, this is not at all broad in its coverage, the article is primarily about projects that Foing has been involved in. As a BLP it is still stub class.

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):

   Non free images must not be used in the infobox or lead for BLPs, as per WP:Fair use#Images

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   I am failing this nomination at the present time as I feel that the article is not sufficiently broad in its coverage. The points about the lead and the non-free image also need to be addressed. Jezhotwells (talk) 15:30, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
