GA Review
editI have passed the article for GA status following a review of the article's merit against Good Article Criteria.
1. It is well written. - Pass
- Well written with compelling prose and no glaring violations of WP:MOS. All technical or cultural jargon is either adequately explained in the article or wiki-linked.
2. It is factually accurate and verifiable. - Pass
- Excellent job of utilizing reliable sources to source all needed claims.
3. It is broad in its coverage. - Pass
- I appreciate the fine balance between keeping this article focused on the IST standard versus the broader context of Time in India. For GA consideration, I think the article mainains an adequate scope and does a considerably good job at informing the reader of the relevant aspects needed to understand the IST standard.
- For FA consideration I would consider fleshed out more details about the economic and cultural implication of adhering to the standard has. I would also expand the See Also and External Links section.
4. It follows the neutral point of view policy - Pass
- The article maintains a NPOV tone with consideration of the reasonings for IST's implemention and makes mention of conflicts.
- For FA consideration I would like to see the Problems section expanded with more detail about the conflict and proposed alernatives.
5. It is stable - Weak Pass
- There has been some signifigant additions since the article was brought up for GA consideration but nothing that I would consider drastic or "unstable".
6. It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic. - Pass
- In addition to maps, the editors have done an excellent job of finding other images to help conceptualize the article's content.
I want to commend the editors of this article for doing an terrific job in crafting this Good Article. I encourage the editors to focus on some of the areas I mention above and continue pushing this article up to FA status. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
