GA Reassessment

I will be doing the GA Reassessment as part of the GA Sweeps project. H1nkles (talk) 15:35, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

I have gone through the article and I find it to be fairly good. The images check out, there is one dead link but that has already been tagged. It should be fixed though. The Lead is a little underdeveloped, per WP:LEAD it should summarize the entire article, there are portions left out. That said I don't see enough here to delist it. I feel that the article needs to be developed and improved as one of WP's primary articles. It could certainly be FA quality of someone would step up and take it to the next level. Overall I will keep the article at GA. H1nkles (talk) 16:00, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

"I don't see enough here to delist it... Overall I will keep the article at GA."

I'm not too happy that this message seems to lean towards a GA Tsar that has the sole power to approve or disapprove of all GA articles. Leaving a message like this seems more like a threat than help.--andreasegde (talk) 09:39, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Eh? Isn't it the point of GAs is that anyone can review, promote or delist them? It's meant to be a relatively simple process, unlike FAs.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 17:52, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Yes, anyone can, but the tone of the message implies something else. H1nkles has already apologised for any misunderstanding.--andreasegde (talk) 10:28, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
