GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   The article describes the voting taking place before the candidates are announced. The candidates section is essentially duplicated in the nomination campaign section.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   The sentence on Norris's alleged links to Ezra Nawi is unsourced, and the follow-on sentence attributes it to a blog. I went to the website at the end of that sentence and just got a blank screen.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   The debates section describes libels against Norris and Scallan but doesn't explain what they were. Why O'Callaghan's treatment of McGuiness caused so many complaints is not explicitly explained (though it is implied by "the intense grilling Miriam O'Callaghan meted out" in the preceding section).

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   Nomination on hold while waiting for responses to comments. DrKiernan (talk) 16:48, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

Sources included for Norris/Nawi, O'Callaghan/McGuinness. Voting section moved below announcement of candidates. The candidates section simply lists the final seven candidates, while the nomination campaign section includes all the other possibilities (Pat Cox, Avril Doyle, Mairead McGuinness, Fergus Finlay, Kathleen O'Meara, Brian Crowley, Éamon Ó Cuív, Mary White, Mary Hanafin, Niall O'Dowd, Justin Kilcullen, Robert Ballagh, Gay Byrne and whoever else there was) so not really a duplicate at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.40.204.15 (talk) 00:23, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

Thank you: passing. DrKiernan (talk) 17:17, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
