GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose):   b (MoS):  
    I'm assuming that the Villa de Madrid is a passenger ship of some sort, but can you clarify please?
    "Rothenberg completed with a bachelor's degree from" doesn't sound right to me. Maybe graduated or something similar instead of completed (or, this could just be a phrase I don't run into writing my Kaiserliche Marine articles ;)
    fixed.
    You should specify what his muzzle-loaders were. Many people would probably know what you're talking about, but many would not.
    I believe keynote is one word (the last paragraph in the Education & Career section).
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):  
    This edit by another editor needs to be either sourced or removed (more than likely just reverted, given the peacock-ery going on there).
  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:  
    See the diff linked above.
  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):  
    Are there no pictures available? Since he passed away in 2004, a copyrighted photo of him would qualify for Fair Use. If you can't find a photo, that's no big deal though.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  
    Excellent work on this article, Ruth. There are just a few things that need to be ironed out before I'll pass the article for GA. Parsecboy (talk) 20:05, 26 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
