Quck fail criteria

1. Has reliable sources
2. Is written neutrally
3. No valid cleanup tags
4. Is relatively stable with no edit wars
5. Not specifically concerned with a rapidly unfolding current event with a definite endpoint

• Unfortunately, this article fails the quick fail criteria, therefore I am failing it. Do not be overly discouraged by this however, it can still achieve GA status with some work. The main problem here is the lack of references, which is what the cleanup tag says. Entire section of the article are unreferenced, for example:
  • Chess (musical)#West End has no references,
  • Chess (musical)#Broadway has only one reference,
  • Chess (musical)#1989 to the present has no references
  • The entire Chess (musical)#Musical Production Details is unreferenced,
  • No references at all in the Chess (musical)#Others to 2007 section.
• There are 11 references overall, which is really not enough for a 46 kilobyte article. Additionally, the entire text of reference 9 is "May 9, 1985", which is not a reference, it's a date.
• Perhaps, after the article has been referenced, you should have the article Peer Reviewed. This will spot any major problems with the article, and allow you to fix them before you re-nominate it. Good luck in the future with this article. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 18:33, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
