 What is a good article?
If an article has over a notebook's page (don't worry, I write small) describing an article's mistakes (related to grammar, prose, fair use, etc.), I will quick fail the article, and suggest a peer review. This requirement changes due to pages which are over 25kb in size, which have one-half or two pages. As per the good article instructions, I will pass the article if the article meets the criteria (this rarely happens when first reviewing the article). When I put the article on hold, the article has seven days to be improved to the suggested standards (or better). I will extend the article's time when I feel that some minor mistakes still need to be improved, or that the GA review time is during a popular holiday weekend. When the on hold window has passed, I will review the points that I previously said that needed improvement. Afterwards, I will have three choices to make for the article: fail, pass, or second opinion. If you disagree with my assessment of your article, you can take the article to good article reassessment. Generally, I follow strictly the manual of style, and enjoy reading proper prose instead of "it was", "there are", "he or she did that thing which occurred that way". My personal preferences are to review articles which are related to computers (someone did say that techies make bad prose writers, or something like that
