I note there is a previous PR: Wikipedia:Peer review/Larisa Iordache/archive1. Could I ask if all the points were addressed?

Regardless, really amazing article - quite well researched, excellent density of citations.

• date of birth requires a reliable source, otherwise it is a violation of WP:DOB
• quotes should be prefaced by context. So for instance, there is a quote about Câmpeanu-Silişteanu noticing her speed, but to connect this quote we need to state more explicitly to the previous point.

I will address each GA point:

1. Well written
   • prose is clear and understandable. It does not flow as easily as an FA grade article, but I may be able to help with that.
   • the structure is excellent, lead section is three paragraphs long which is on the border of the ecessive length, but I think it is acceptable. I see no problematic phrases.
2. Verifiable and NOR
   • I cannot see any original research
   • referencing seems excellent
   • I am not a domain expert, so it is somewhat hard for me to comment on the quality of the linked news articles. Also, I don’t speak Romanian.
3. Coverage
   • Seems to cover the life of the subject well, good table summary of achievements
   • does not diverge from the topic
4. Neutrality
   • the use of quotes potentially needs some contextualising, this is a minor issue and perhaps my own personal bug bear; otherwise it is quite neutral in tone
5. Stability
   • seems fine
6. Illustrated
   • use of images is excellent, well done

Hope this is helpful! Excellent work from the contributor(s). - Aussie Article Writer (talk) 18:53, 8 June 2021 (UTC)

Hi @Aussie Article Writer, thanks for reviewing!

• I note there is a previous PR: Wikipedia:Peer review/Larisa Iordache/archive1. Could I ask if all the points were addressed? Y Yes, they were back when the review was done in 2014.
• date of birth requires a reliable source, otherwise it is a violation of WP:DOB.  Done
• quotes should be prefaced by context. So for instance, there is a quote about Câmpeanu-Silişteanu noticing her speed, but to connect this quote we need to state more explicitly to the previous point.  Done I added more context to the quotes throughout the article, but if you think it's not enough, let me know

Thank you! -Riley1012 (talk) 18:15, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

@Riley1012: well done, this os now categorised as a GA. I left you a message in your talk page for a further suggestion, but not one that affects GA status. - Aussie Article Writer (talk) 23:28, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
