Note: there is textual overlap with this website, but that seems to be plagiarized from Wikipedia, not vice versa (based on date of publication). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Benji man (talk • contribs) 12:36, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

I'm ready to assist in the improvement of this article, if you should find areas of improvement. And, yes, the website that you named is plagiarized copy of our article.Davidbena (talk) 04:51, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

Failed "good article" nomination

This article has failed its Good article nomination. This is how the article, as of January 23, 2023, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: The style is often archaic. Information from the Structure section is repeated in later sections, resulting in redundancy.

2. Verifiable?: The use of sources is good in general, but a lot of reliance is placed on unpublished lecture notes, which are not publicly accessible. This makes the information based on them unverifiable to nearly all readers. The footnotes often cite the sources at length, which is unnecessary.

3. Broad in coverage?: Pass

4. Neutral point of view?: Pass

5. Stable?: Pass

6. Images?: Pass

I enjoyed learning so much about Yemenite Jewish poetry and I have no doubt that the information based on Prof. Tobi's lecture notes is accurate. Unfortunately, I think the structure of the article needs to be adjusted to remedy the redundancy and the information based on unverifiable sources should be left out. Often, the article cites a published source for the same information later on, so the two issues could be resolved in tandem.

When these issues are addressed, the article can be renominated. If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to have it reassessed. Thank you for your work so far.— Benji man (talk) 16:37, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

That's fine. Perhaps when the professor publishes his lecture notes, I can resubmit the article for a second review.Davidbena (talk) 16:51, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
