Add citations wherever marked {{cn}}. --Ankit Maity^Talk_Contribs 08:45, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Along with that, some questions:

• Some pedestrian walkways and private roads are signified by transparent white lines, especially when greatly resembling a road intended for public automotive traffic.

-- I don't get what is white and transparent.

• Google Earth Engine is a separate product, not a part of Google Earth.

-- If it's why have this part at all?

I just removed that section about the engine, undo it if I did wrong. Numbermaniac - T- C 22:26, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Oh, and reference 14 has a minor problem. Numbermaniac - T- C 22:27, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

I corrected that ref for you.

And please add those sources wherever marked {{cn}}. If you can't find sources, please cancel the statements. --Ankit Maity^Talk_Contribs 11:41, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Correct the problems addressed in the editor tag in the para of Google_Earth#Mac_version. --Ankit Maity^Talk_Contribs 11:47, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

• The words "current", "recent" & "to date" should be removed as they become outdated. (GA criteria).
• Remove Peacock Terms, such as "significant" and "important". (GA criteria)
• The lead should adequately summarize the content of the article. (GA criteria) --Ankit Maity^Talk_Contribs 12:03, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

I'll have to see what I can do. I'm hoping others might help too.Numbermaniac - T- C 08:59, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Comment by non-reviewer -- this GAN should've been immediately failed for containing 22 tags for citation and two outstanding cleanup banners. @Numbermaniac What the heck were you thinking when you nominated the article? You're not a major contributor to the article. In fact, you've only made ONE (1) edit on the article. You're wasting everyone's time here. Geez --Sp33dyphil ©^hat_ontributions 07:34, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

I added those {{cn}} tags. However, what you said is perfectly correct. --Ankit Maity^Talk_Contribs 12:10, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

The article is thus failed for the GA status. --Ankit Maity^Talk_Contribs 12:10, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
