- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
b (MoS): 
- Quote in lead needs a ref and the lead is a little short. Add the critical reception to lead?
- a (prose):
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- The whole Poem section lacks a ref.
- a (references):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- a (major aspects):
- It follows the neutral point of view policy.
- Fair representation without bias:
- "It is known that the Ode to a Nightingale is considered among one of the greatest poems ever written in English Literature.[3]" Something about this does not seem neutral. In the author's opinion, maybe.
- Fair representation without bias:
- It is stable.
- No edit wars etc.:
- No edit wars etc.:
- 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):
- a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):
- Overall:
- Pass/Fail:

Comments:
- Is it Ode to a Nightingale or "Ode to a Nightingale"?
- Suggestion: In "In many of Keats's poems, Keats incorporates the internal vowel sound reptition in a conscious pattern." you could rewrite it to something like "In many of Keats's poems, he incorporates the internal vowel sound reptition in a conscious pattern."
- "Ode to a Nightingale describes a series of conflicts between reality and the Romantic ideal." The Romantic ideal of reality?
- Suggestion: "This emphasis on pleasure provoked Albert Guerard, Jr. to argue that..." Provoked sounds a little too strong here.
- Overall, this is a nice, well-written article. :) I'm putting it on hold to give time for the comments to be addressed. Kaguya-chan (talk) 23:01, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
- 1. Expanded the lead by about 4 lines. 2. I completely rewrote the poem section with references and poem extracts. 3. I moved the quote about it being a great poem down to Bate's reaction to the poem. 4. I took your suggestion about the ideal and I instead put "Romantic ideal of uniting with nature". I think it makes more sense now with the revised poem section. 5. I rewrote the two assonance sentences to read as one: "The poem also incorporates a complex reliance on assonance, a repetition of vowel sounds, in a conscious pattern as found in many of his poems." 6. I rewrote the Guerard sentence to read: "Responding to this emphasis on pleasure, Albert Guerard, Jr. argue". Ottava Rima (talk) 03:09, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
