GA Review (January 08, 2008)

GA review (see here for criteria)

---

Hi there, I have started my review. The first major comment is that the "History" section of the article does not clearly outline the timeline of events over the five days. This is possibly due to a number of conflicting copyedits that have obscured the point of the article. haydn_likes_carpet (talk) 06:35, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

 Done I've added the necessary dates/timeline for clarity. -- Aldwinteo (talk) 08:54, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   Wikilinks to Changi Prison needed. Add clear timeline in the text of the "History" section, (e.g. "When there were no signs of the POWs backing down by the third day, ...". MoS not yet checked.

    Done To be helpful in your comments, kindly specify where the abovementioned wiki-link is needed? According to my checks, there's one highlighted in the 1st para of the article already (unless u want redundant links?) -- Aldwinteo (talk) 08:54, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

   Checked ok.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   References 4 and 6 have "Endnote 1" & "Endnote 2". They also refer to "various sources" and "an account". What are these sources?

    Done I've added the requested details as mentioned in the references earlier. Pse refer to the earlier discussion above that highlighted some of the issues & follow-ups done earlier. -- Aldwinteo (talk) 08:54, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

   I've removed the words "Endnote 1" & "Endnote 2".

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:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars etc.:

   To be checked.

   Checked ok.

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):

   To be checked.

   Checked ok.

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   GA Pass. Well done! --haydn_likes_carpet (talk) 00:09, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
