I strongly believe this article no longer meets the Good article criteria.

First and foremost, there is an {{expand}} template at the top of the article. Thus, this article is incomplete. The lead does not comply with WP:LEAD, as it does not summarize the article as a whole. There are several short and stubby paragraphs and sections throughout the article, which means the article is not well written; there's a lack of broad coverage of the topic as well. There are also several sentences and paragraphs that fail to include inline citation and fails WP:OR and WP:V.

If these issues are not resolved within the next two weeks, I'm afraid I'll have to delist this article. Good luck to those who plan to work on this article. DiverseMentality 22:19, 31 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Care to explain in more depth? •Jim62sch•dissera! 02:04, 6 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sure. As for the lack of citations, there are many sentences and whole paragraphs without any sources, such as the ones under "Etymology and usage", "Names of God", "Existence of God", "History of monotheism", "Dystheism and nontheism", etc. As for the short paragraphs, there are some paragraphs that are extremely short, some even just a single sentence long (under "Names of God" and "History of monotheism"). The lead also doesn't summarize the article as a whole; it should be written as a introduction and summary of the rest of the article. DiverseMentality 03:37, 6 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

I agree it fails GA criteria; at the very least, I've spotted something which falls afoul of criterion 2c. carl bunderson (talk) (contributions) 19:08, 10 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

It has been two weeks and the article still does not meet the good article criteria and is therefore being delisted. Please address any and all concerns before renominating this article for good article status. If you feel this reassessment was a mistake, please feel free to send it to WP:GAR. Thank you.
