From a cursory glance, article suffers from sourcing, prose, and neutrality issues. Some texts are tagged as either unsourced or unverifiable, while others are unencyclopedic (I caught one usage of the idiom "taste of one's own medicine", which I have deleted). There could be many unsourced claims in the article due to lack of in-text attributions to RS. Some sources don't seem to be reliable, either; the use of IMDb, which WP:RS/IMDB deems unreliable, is a major red flag. I vote to delist.

- Comment - I question the notability of the "London 2012 Olympic Summer Games opening ceremony" section. IW. (talk) 08:25, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
- Weak Delist. I'm concerned by the substantial amount of non-RS, including IMDb and Metro, both generally unreliable, and also an unsourced paragraph at Mr. Bean#Home media that has some stats, e.g.,
it was originally 52 minutes when broadcast on television
, failing criteria 2b. In the music section, the paragraph opening withThe theme was later released on Goodall's album Choral Works...
is also unsourced. There is additionally a valid cn tag and a valid failed verification tag. The Mr. Bean#In popular culture section might also fail criteria 3b, going into excessive trivia based on questionable sources (1, 2, and The Daily Mirror are not WP:RS. Therefore I am at weak delist. VickKiang (talk) 22:02, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

Rate | Attribute | Review Comment |
---|---|---|
1. Well-written: | ||
1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct. | see several pertinent edits I made in the lead section and elsewhere on 5 December 2022 between 06:38 and 08:27 (UTC) | |
1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation. | same as above (1a) | |
2. Verifiable with no original research: | ||
2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline. | see edits I made (see 1a, above) for examples of unreliable sources | |
2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose). | same as above | |
2c. it contains no original research. | I removed some original research, but the article might contain even more | |
2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism. | ||
3. Broad in its coverage: | ||
3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic. | for a television series of 10 years and 17 seasons, the article is short - it seems to lack both breadth and depth of coverage (I have never watched the show, thus my use of the verb "seems") | |
3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style). | I guess. | |
4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each. | Maybe - I tried to remove opinions, but I could have easily missed something | |
5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute. | I didn't notice any edit wars | |
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio: | ||
6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content. | ||
6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions. | ||
7. Overall assessment. | not even close to satisfying Good Article criteria |

editI used the table above to explain my reasoning for listing this article for good article community reassessment. Please discuss here. Many thanks - Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) [he/him] 09:13, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

- Onegreatjoke, Chipmunkdavis, any thoughts? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 22:48, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
- The article isn't that bad, at least from an initial viewing. Maybe it's not broad enough but I don't have enough knowledge to tell. though I would like for
- "As polygamous marriage is not legally recognized in the US, there are no divorce documents to date the end of relationships. The end of a relationship is instead reckoned by announcements, and events such as moving away."
- To be cited before I say keep. Onegreatjoke (talk) 03:18, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
- The lead needs fixing. The second paragraph is totally unsourced and doesn't appear anywhere in the body. The first paragraph doesn't appear in the body either, although there is a source. The lead simultaneously needs expansion to summarize the body, it doesn't touch on most sections. CMD (talk) 14:31, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

Fails GA criterion 2b. Is lacking in inline citations. For example, the following paragraphs are completely uncited: first, fifth, and seventh paras in "Adulthood and professional work"; first para in "Gaudí and Modernisme"; fourth para in "Surpassing the Gothic"; all of "Urban spaces and landscaping"; first para of "Works"; last para of "University years"; etc. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 16:30, 24 December 2022 (UTC)
- Agree about a shortage of in line citations. Also the citation style is not consistent (which I will work on now). I think that the existing references almost certainly contain sufficient information and just need the inlines added. I also think that there should probably be a Further reading section for all sorts of additional material. Gusfriend (talk) 01:17, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
- The citation style is now more consistent. I have also tagged a couple of references as possibly being user generated content. Gusfriend (talk) 23:09, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
- @PerfectSoundWhatever: It seems you forgot to notify the major WikiProjects. Given that it's a VIT4 article, we may be able to find somebody willing to rescue it. Gusfriend, nice work so far. Just FYI (you likely know this); consistent citations and a further reading section are not part of the GA criteria. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 08:20, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
- I would also mention it at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Vital Articles as there are a bunch of people there who are generalists. Improving citation consistency fits in with being a member of the VA WikiProject and is generally a good thing that I try to do from time to time. Gusfriend (talk) 10:41, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry, I'll do that now. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 18:09, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delist - currently we have orange template on top, 18 'Citation needed' and 3 'unreliable source?' tags, poorly written and partly unsourced Collaborators section, and extremely poor Death and legacy section. Article needs a lot of work, and now it's not a GA. Artem.G (talk) 16:52, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

Problems with this article include:
- Large amounts of unsourced text and/or dead links.
- The list of committees is two terms out of date.
– Steelkamp (talk) 09:30, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
- The sentence under history However, the Senate had few committees, engaged in limited activities, until 1970 really needs to be expanded out to talk about what the committees actually were. I would actually like to see the history section split off into a separate page with more longer term information. Here are a few resources for expanding, understanding Senate Estimates (which may also be worth a page by itself).

- Result: Strong consensus to delist. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 15:44, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
GAR from 2007, reassesed in 2008. Very important article in a poor state - almost half of the text in unsourced, f.e. half of Etymology, whole Evolution, half of Taxonomy, parts of Diversity, Anatomy and physiology, Muscular system, half of Reproductive system, etc.
Other problems - underdeveloped sections - f.e. Scales, Emotion, and Fishkeeping.
Tags present: dubious – discuss. Article is probably outdated: Conservation section starts with The 2006 IUCN Red List names 1,173 fish species that are threatened with extinction
- it's 17 years ago!
I don't usually edit biology articles, so will ping some users who are good in it (hope it's ok, no pressure of course, but would be great to know your opinion): @LittleJerry:, @Chiswick Chap:, @Casliber:

A GA that was promoted in 2006 and last reassessed in 2013. The main problem I've noticed is the numerous uncited statements that makes the article fail criterion 2b.

Comments from Steelkamp
Definitely not meeting the criteria as it stands now. This article fails 1A, 1B and 2B at least.
- Lead should be larger for such an article.
- Edmonton is North America's northernmost large city and metropolitan area comprising over one million people each. This should be reworded.
- Edmonton's historic growth has been facilitated through the absorption of five adjacent urban municipalities (Strathcona, North Edmonton, West Edmonton, Beverly and Jasper Place) in addition to a series of annexations through 1982, and the annexation of 8,260 ha (82.6 km2; 31.9 sq mi) of land from Leduc County and the City of Beaumont on January 1, 2019. The lead needs to go into more detail into the history of the city than this, frankly unimportant, information.
- It is at the same latitude as Hamburg (Germany); Dublin (Ireland); Manchester (United Kingdom); and Magnitogorsk (Russia). What is the point of saying this?
- Hamlet of Fort Assiniboine. Does Hamlet need to be capitalised here?
- The City... Does City need to be capitalised here?
- The "History of municipal governance" section is mostly about 1892 to 1934. Why is there almost nothing more recent than that?
- though its weather is milder than Regina, Saskatoon or Winnipeg... The article should explain why Edmonton's winters are milder than those cities.
- In general, the article does a poor job at explaining the factors behind Edmonton's weather.
- 1981–2010 normals, extremes 1880–present. We could do with more recent normals.
- 1981–2010 normals, extremes 1959–2010. We could do with more recent normals and extremes.

A GA from 2014. There is many unsourced material (such as the entirety of the culture: general section.) along with some supposedly needed updates and a better wording of
- "In October 2017, over 500 people were killed by a truck bombing.[citation needed]
- In March 2022, al-Shabaab killed over 60 people in a series of attacks.[122]
- In October 2022, an al-Shabaab double car bombing killed over 120 people.[citation needed]"
among many other things. If that can be addressed then this will not have to be delisted. Onegreatjoke (talk) 03:29, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
- The economy section displays recentism, only covering events since 2011. Steelkamp (talk) 05:13, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
Sadly the main article writer Middayexpress was blocked in 2015. The article has degraded since 2014 through overediting. I don't know if Fsmatovu wants to take a look at it and see if he can source and improve it to retain GA status? I don't think it needs a lot of work, just to check there are no unsourced claims, removed what can't be sourced and avoid the short snappy sentences like those mentioned above.♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:14, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

- Anything specific? Which items cannot be handled through simple bold editing, and instead require a GAR? CMD (talk) 01:44, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
- Some specific things include
- "The infrastructure development in the surrounding areas such as the Kuala Lumpur International Airport at Sepang, the creation of the Multimedia Super Corridor and the expansion of Port Klang further reinforce the economic significance of the city.""
- "Other important economic activities in the city are education and health services. Kuala Lumpur also has advantages stemming from the high concentration of educational institutions that provide a wide-ranging of courses. Numerous public and private medical specialist centres and hospitals in the city offer general health services, and a wide range of specialist surgery and treatment that caters to locals and tourists."
- "The entertainment hub of the city is mainly centred in the Golden Triangle encompassing Jalan P. Ramlee, Jalan Sultan Ismail, Jalan Bukit Bintang, Ampang Road and Bintang Walk as well as Kuala Lumpur's largest nightlife and entertainment hotspot, TREC KL. Trendy nightclubs, bars and lounges, such as Marini's on 57, Skybar at Traders Hotel, the Beach Club, Espanda, the Hakka Republic Wine Bar & Restaurant, Hard Rock Cafe, the Luna Bar, Nuovo, Rum Jungle, No Black Tie, the Thai Club, Zion Club, Zouk KL, Club Kyō, Dragonfly KL and many others are located here."
- "As of the 2010 Census, the population of Kuala Lumpur was 46.4% Muslim, 35.7% Buddhist, 8.5% Hindu, 5.8% Christian, 1.4% of unknown affiliations, 1.1% Taoist or Chinese religion adherent, 0.6% follower of other religions, and 0.5% non-religious.
- Kuala Lumpur is one of the three states where less than 50% of the population are self-identified Muslims, the other two being Penang and Sarawak."
- Among many other uncited statements. Also the lead is supposed to be four paragraphs max per MOS:LEAD Onegreatjoke (talk) 01:56, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

- An IP user has been completely restructuring a lot of city articles in central Japan; most of these are not watched by many editors. Some of these have been reverted and others haven't, but it is worth considering whether the previous version of the article from prior to July needs as much reworking.

Another GAR nomination. This article was made a GA in 2013. However, this needs to be reassessed because it fails the broadness required for a GA. Andry is now president of Madagascar and has been for 4 years now. But, the article has rarely covered much of it in the presidency section.

- It's hard to say and I believe that the article could be better. There are citations at the end of most paragraphs but usually high quality essays will have a citation at the end of each statement.

- @Jorahm: if everything in the paragraph supported by the citation given, that's fine by Wikipedia standards. You do not need to repeat the same citation multiple times within a paragraph. That if is a big if for some articles; some people put a citation at the end of the paragraph that only supports the last sentence, and forget to put a citation needed tag for the rest of the paragraph. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 14:21, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- I am just unclear on how much research is needed for a good article. Citing an entire paragraph to a single source might not be enough in my opinion. It's an area for potential improvement but I am not sure if it would trigger a full review process. Jorahm (talk) 18:17, 15 January 2023 (UTC)

This 2007-listed, level 4 vital article lacks significant numbers of citations. I have tagged over 30 locations, but more may still be there. Without significant improvement, the article should be delisted as failing GA criterion 2.

- The unsourced text appears small within the scope of the article, and should be dealt with through tagging and regular editing before a GAR is initiated. Out of the 170 sources, how many are promotional enough to be problematic in this use case, and could they be tagged/removed? CMD (talk) 14:25, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

- Could you tag the items you inspected so it is easier for other editors to follow up? I also find the section a bit trivia-filled, but that is what is expected from such sections.

A GA from 2012. Three reasons I'm nominating this. 1. Uncited material is strewn about the article and will need to be addressed. 2. I believe that the article needs to be updated as most of the article seems to end at 2012 max. 3. This might be a stretch but i'm not all too confident about the article's broadness. for a city with over 1 million people, the article kind of seems small. Especially since the history is only twice the size of the etymology section, a section about the city's name. Onegreatjoke (talk) 03:07, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
- Comment as is fairly usual with Indian GAs, the sections that have most degraded appear to be Culture and Tourism, and Religious Sites (and to a lesser extent Education, Transport). Most of the article (the Etymology, History, Geography, Demographics, Administration, Economy and Media sections) has survived really well, albeit with the caveat that they are now outdated. I don't believe OGJ's third point above is valid, I think all important aspects are covered. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:30, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

- I agree the main problem appears to be that since the original GA listing was made 14 years ago there hasn't been enough effort to ensure the article is at GA status. I suggest searching for sources and removing any pieces of information that sources couldn't be found on. Ive added a citations template at the top of the article. I am currently working on expanding another article so I likely won't be avalible to look for citations. For now I am for de listing this article however if there is effort to fix the problems I may re consider my vote. NotOrrio (talk) 13:47, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

- I agree with delisting it until it is improved. Seeing as its original GA listing was made 14 years ago, there will have many changes made to this page, also with it being about a current topic instead of a historical one, it will most likely require rewriting for all the changes to the system in the recent years to bring it back to a GA standard. --ThylacineHunter (talk) 01:49, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

- Delist as someone involved in the article. I've been sporadically and slowly working on updating the article with scientific reliable sources, but I will admit it is not in a great state right now where I would consider it qualifying for GA. One of the key problems I've run into is people adding in sources on general bee health issues and confusing that with CCD, which has very specific symptoms outlined in the sourced part of Colony_collapse_disorder#Signs_and_symptoms. Old sources are not inherently bad because a lot of the CCD research and reviews were back from around 10 years ago, and I haven't seen updates recently that showed a major sea-change in anything on the entomology front. Definitely willing to do some heavy lifting on it in a month or two though (or ping me then to give me a little kick). KoA (talk) 20:34, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delist Unfortunately I too must agree, even though many of the Sources are ten odd years old, that does not make them invalid, it's just that some of them could be better, and some more up to date info. could be added with recent research as sources, but generally not changing the CCD overview: But it does need to be cleaned up; this will take a bit of time, I have seen wiki editors not overly familiar with a subject and make edits throughout a page that takes a long time to fix. I would say with this now on the radar of some of us, we should be able to fix this page in the next couple or so months. Bibby (talk) 20:55, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

Lack of citations in some areas. Honestly though it's not too much but I have noticed that all my indian place nominations always have the same problem of being alright in the first half delving in problems by the end. Though, even when I said the stuff is not too much, I would still like stuff like "Lassi (yogurt-based) and chaach (traditional buttermilk) are most favoured drink in Uttar Pradesh." to be cited as it's a pretty bold claim (also i'm sick so my brain might be but lagging but it feels like that sentence isn't grammatically correct also). Hopefully someone will fix this. Onegreatjoke (talk) 01:12, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
- The article isn't in bad shape; perhaps your personal situation has led you to pull the GAR lever unnecessarily. I have removed one or two statements in not-quite-optimal Indian English, and some accretions of uncited material at the ends of some sections, but that is about it.

Problems that I have spotted:
- A few sentences needing citations still.
- There were eight registered radio stations broadcasting from Amman by 2007. Most English language stations play pop music targeted towards young audiences. This needs to be updated. I am also left wondering what proportion of radio stations are English language and which proportion are Arabic.
- although the mountainous terrain of the area has prevented the connection of some main roads, which are instead connected by bridges and tunnels. What does that mean? Are the bridges and tunnels not roads?
- There are eight circles, or roundabouts, that span and connect west Amman. What does this mean? I get the feeling they are not talking about actual roundabouts.
- The municipality began construction on a bus rapid transit (BRT) system as a solution in 2015. This needs to be updated. It also contradicts with the following paragraph, which states: Construction work on the BRT system started in 2010.
- The images in the gallery at the bottom should be better integrated with the article as per WP:GALLERY.
Steelkamp (talk) 16:15, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

A GA from 2010. First problem, a small amount of uncited material that should be addressed. Second, and my main problem, which might be reaching, this article seems way too small. This is a place with over 500 thousand people living in it. Yet it's only 35000 bytes? With multiple sections that are just two-four sentences long? There are articles on towns with less than 1000 people living in them yet have significantly bigger articles than these. Because of that, I think fails the broadness category.

There is also no mention of any pre-modern history in the history section. Mucube (talk • contribs) 23:21, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

- Result: Delist: lack of edits improving compliance with the second of the GA criteria. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 23:51, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
The biggest issue with the article right now is a lack of citations for several sections. Other things include:
- In Infrastructure#Transportation, is a list of the ships in the harbour too much detail for an article on the entire city?
- The St. John's Cycling Master Plan was officially launched in July 2009. Its first phase will consist of 43 km (27 mi) of on-road painted bike lanes, signs on an additional 73 km (45 mi) of roadway, the installation of 20 bicycle parking facilities and the addition of bike racks on the fleet of 53 Metrobuses. Needs to be updated.
- Is there any intercity public transport?
- Why is anglophone in lowercase but Francophone in uppercase?
- Are there really only two television stations?
- English was mother tongue spoken by the majority of residents of St. John's (92.9%) with the second most common language, Chinese, as the mother tongue of 1.1% of the population. I'm surprised that the percentage of French speakers is not mentioned, considering that Francophone schools are mentioned and that there are French language radio stations.

A GA from 2018. Pretty Recent. Anyways, the usual case of there being multiple cases of uncited content that must be addressed. Onegreatjoke (talk) 02:03, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
- Please mention the uncited contents which you found out. Shady59 (talk) 13:08, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
- "The Ernakulam Lok Sabha constituency elects six members to the state Legislative Assembly. Out of this, five constituencies, namely Kochi, Ernakulam, Thripunithura, Thrikkakara and Kalamassery represent the city."
- "Kochi's historical reliance on trade continues into modern times, as the city is a major exporter of spices and is home to the International Pepper Exchange, where black pepper is globally traded. The Spices Board of India and World Spice Organisation are headquartered in Kochi."
- "and is the world's first fully solar energy powered airport."
- "SH 15, Ettumanoor-Ernakulam Road, connects the city to Kottayam, Pala, Kumily, Changanacherry, Pathanamthitta etc. SH 41, Palarivattom-Thekkady Road, provides a corridor to the eastern parts of the district. SH 63, Vypeen Pallipuram Road and SH 66, Alappuzha – Thoppumpady road are coastal roads that serve the narrow sliver of land between the backwaters and the sea."
- "Kochi is one of the few cities to be granted the new-generation air-conditioned low-floor and non-air-conditioned semi-low-floor buses under the JNNURM city transport development project. KURTC and private buses operate frequent schedules to neighbouring areas of Nedumbassery, Perumbavoor, Aluva, Muvattupuzha, Kothamangalam, Cherthala and Poochakkal. Taxis and auto rickshaws (called autos) are available for hire throughout the day."
- "Kochi has the highest population density in Kerala with 7139 people per km2. As of 2011, Kochi had a metropolitan area population of 2,117,990. The female-to-male ratio is 1,028:1,000, significantly higher than the all-India average of 933:1,000. Kochi's literacy rate is 97.5%. The female literacy rate lags that of males by 1.1%, amongst the lowest such gaps in India."
- "Malayalam is the main language of communication and medium of instruction for primary education, although a number of schools do offer English medium education. The higher education is invariably in English medium, and it is the preferred language in business circles. Tamil and Hindi are widely understood—albeit rarely spoken."
- "The people are also increasingly fashion-conscious, often deviating from the traditional Kerala wear to western clothing."
- "The Maharajas of Kochi (then Cochin) were scholars who knew the epics and encouraged the arts. The paintings at the Hill Palace and the Dutch Palace are testimony to their love for arts."
- "Other leading managerial institutions include Rajagiri Centre for Business Studies, Kochi Business School, Amrita School of Business, Albertian Institute of Management and Toc-H B school."
- "The School of Legal Studies (SLS), CUSAT is one of the leading graduate, post-graduate, and research institutes in the country. The National University of Advanced Legal Studies (NUALS) is located in the city, which is a premier law university in India and the only Law college listed in CLAT (Common Law Admission Test) in Kerala."
- "A number of financial publications are also published in the city. These include The Economic Times, Business Line, The Business Standard and The Financial Express. Prominent magazines and religious publications like the Sathyadeepam, The Week and Vanitha are also published from the city."
- "There are over 50 cinema halls that screen movies in Malayalam, Tamil, English and Hindi. The city hosts Kerala's first cine multiplex, at the Oberon Mall with four screens. Gold Souk Grande also has a cine multiplex operated by Q cinemas with four screens. PVR with 9 screens is another national multiplex brand that has presence in Kochi and is based out of LuLu International Shopping Mall. Cinepolis at Centre Square Mall with 11 screens is the first international megaplex brand in the state. 16 more multiplex screens are expected in the city in the near future."
- "The FACT Grounds at Udyogamandal, Sacred Heart's College Grounds, HMT Grounds at Kalamassery and St. Albert's College Grounds are the other major training facilities for various games like volleyball, badminton, cricket etc."

A Coldwell GA. This is somewhat my fault, as I missed a number of issues in my GA review in 2020 (which was the year I first was involved in the GA process). I've done a general rewrite, so copyvio isn't an issue anymore, but there were several instances of failed verification that need to be resolved yet. Much harder to fix will be weighting/comprehensiveness concerns I have - IMO the 1840s village stuff is disproportionately weighted, while the post-1950 NPS ownership needs additional information. I'm in a busy season with work and don't have the print sources that would be most useful in fixing the comprehensiveness issues. I'm genuinely sad to see this one probably go, but if this is going to be fixed, someone else is going to need to pitch in above the time I spent on this. Hog Farm Talk 02:03, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delist barring a total rewrite and fixing of sourcing issues. Anything written by Coldwell is guaranteed to be filled with close paraphrasing, failed verification, and factual errors. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 04:37, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Trainsandotherthings: - the close paraphrasing (in this case, one sentence largely copied) has been removed, and the failed verification has all either been removed, sourced, or tagged. Several minor factual errors have been corrected. The total rewrite had (mostly) occurred, it's just that there's underlying weighting/comprehensiveness issues I don't have the time or sources to fix. Hog Farm Talk 14:23, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
- That's fair. I do still stand by delisting based on what you said just above, however. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 16:20, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

- Result: Issues resolved. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 21:00, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
An article made a GA in 2011. My main concern with this article isn't a lack of sourcing (though there are two citation needed tags) but rather that it fails to be broad while also possibly needing updates. For broadness I'm specifically talking about the Jordanian Rule, Israeli Occupation, and Palestinian Autonomy sections. Each these sections consist solely of very short paragraphs, sometimes even being one sentence long, and it really feels as if more could be said here. The possibly needing update problem is how this article just seems to end at 2009. There is no mention of anything that after 2009. For example, the article mentions
- "In 2009, the municipality reported a shortage of classrooms.[29]"
But there is no follow up on this afterwards, making it seem like Bani Na'im has had this shortage for a while. Onegreatjoke (talk) 05:51, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
- If I am wrong about my assumptions though then please tell me. Onegreatjoke (talk) 06:03, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: Agree that the article needs an update and will see about recent relevant developments, as well as updated statistics. For History, I was hard-pressed to find much information about this relatively small town to flesh out each period of rule. When the article passed GAN, the section was structured differently, with the British, Jordanian, Israeli and Palestinian periods all part of the same subsection. I support restoring this, rather than the current bare-bones subsections. But first I will see if more sources have become available to expand on the town's history.

- Result: Delist - Citation issues unaddressed. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 19:36, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
A GA from 2007. Last reassessed in 2014. Numerous citation issues including
- Nearby, to the west, Roman Road marks the course of a Roman road that ran from Winchester to Silchester. Further to the east, another Roman road ran from Chichester through the outlying villages of Upton Grey and Mapledurwell. The Harrow Way is an Iron-age ancient route that runs to the south of the town. The first recorded historical event in the area was the defeat of King Æthelred of Wessex and his brother Alfred the Great at Old Basing by the Danes in 871.
- Basingstoke is a major interchange between Reading, Newbury, Andover, Winchester, and Alton, and lies on the natural trade route between the southwest of England and London. The area had been something of an interchange even in ancient times. It had been cut by a Roman roadway that ran from northeast to southwest, from Silchester towards Salisbury (Sorbiodunum), and by another Roman road that linked Silchester (Calleva Atrebatum) in the north with Winchester (Venta Belgarum) to the south. These cross-cutting highways, along with the good agricultural land hereabouts, account for the many "Roman" villas in the area, mostly put up by Romanized native nobility (Roman villa). Even more ancient was the Harrow Way, a Neolithic trackway, possibly associated with the ancient tin trade, that crossed all of southern England from west to east, from Cornwall to Kent, passing right through Andover and Basingstoke.
- A John Lewis at home and Waitrose co-located store is near the station. It was built in November 2015 as part of the redevelopment of Basing View
- The town's nightlife is split between the new Festival Square, and the traditional hostelries at the Top of Town, with a few local community pubs outside the central area. The town has four nightclubs, two in the town itself, one on the east side and one 2 miles (3.2 km) out to the west.
- As of 2011, Basingstoke has a roller derby league and team, the Basingstoke Bullets. Due to difficulty finding a suitable venue, the team practice in nearby Whitchurch. Basingstoke is also the home of Rising Phoenix Cheer, a successful competitive Allstar Cheerleading programme for athletes from age 5 upwards, training at Aldworth school.
- The entire railway section
And many more. Onegreatjoke (talk) 19:45, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

- Result: Delisted. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 17:12, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
A GA from 2007. Quite a lot of problems with this. First, uncited statements such as
- The Parliament was dissolved by Governor General Michaëlle Jean on the advice of Prime Minister Stephen Harper on September 7, 2008. The general election for the members of the 40th Parliament of Canada was held on October 14, 2008.
- On March 14, 2008 Bloc MP Maka Kotto resigned, followed by Liberal MP Brenda Chamberlain resigned on April 7. Another Liberal MP, John Godfrey, resigned on August 1.
- The motion may not have any legal effect, but it is related to Bill C-288 – which received Royal Assent on June 22, 2007.
- Bill C-2, titled An Act to amend the Criminal Code and to make consequential amendments to other Acts (Tackling Violent Crime Act) was the government's omnibus crime bill which received Royal Assent on February 29, 2008 and amended several pieces of legislation. Among other things, the bill raised the age of consent to 16 from 14, imposed minimum mandatory sentence for crimes involving firearms, instituted a "three-strikes-and-you're-out" (also known as a "reverse onus sentencing") for habitual offenders, and restricted "house arrest" policies for serious offenders. The bill received royal assent on February 28, 2008 and sections 1 to 17, 28 to 38, 54, 57 and 58 went into force on May 1, 2008 and sections 18 to 27, 39 to 53, 55, 56, 59 and 60 went into force on July 2, 2008.
- Currently, senators can stay in office until they reach the age of 75. The bill was first introduced by the government in the Senate on May 30, 2006. After consideration in committee and making amendments to the bill, the Senate recommended that the bill not be proceeded with until such time as the Supreme Court of Canada had ruled with respect to its constitutionality, which had not occurred prior to dissolution. The bill was reintroduced in the second session as a Commons bill on November 13, 2007, but did not become law before the session ended.
Along with many other uncited statements. Along with that, the prose is just poorly written. The article is written so weirdly with so many 1 sentence paragraphs such as
- Five members of parliament crossed the floor since the election on January 23, 2006:
- On February 6, 2006, David Emerson, elected as the Liberal Member of Parliament for Vancouver Kingsway, crossed the floor to join Stephen *Harper's cabinet as Minister of International Trade.[9]
- On January 5, 2007, Wajid Khan, elected as the Liberal MP for Mississauga—Streetsville, crossed the floor to join the Conservative Party.[10]
- On February 6, 2007, Garth Turner, elected as a Conservative MP for Halton, moved to the Liberal caucus. He had been sitting as an Independent since being suspended from the Tory caucus on October 18, 2006.[11]
- On June 26, 2007, Joe Comuzzi, elected as a Liberal MP for Thunder Bay—Superior North, moved to the Conservative caucus. He had been sitting as an Independent since being suspended from the Liberal caucus on March 21, 2007.[12]
- On August 30, 2008, Blair Wilson elected as a Liberal MP for West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country, moved to the Green caucus. He had been sitting as an Independent since he resigned from the Liberal caucus on October 28, 2007.[13]
And even then, i'm not sure if the article is broad enough as it feels like there's so much that could be talked about that isn't Onegreatjoke (talk) 14:38, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

A GA from 2010. Some uncited statements such as
- At the time, U Street was known as "Black Broadway". Many jazz greats of the day, such as Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, and Nat King Cole, would stop by the restaurant when they performed at U Street clubs.
- though it has a more limited selection than the original restaurant.

- Result: Notability is not within GAR's purview. Dead links are, but they satisfy the criteria. Kept. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 19:43, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
A GA from 2009. Now the article is sourced correctly. The problem is, almost half the sources are permanent dead links with one non-permanent dead link. Personally, I feel as if that comprises 2b because of that. Though, this nomination is mainly a test to see if permanent dead links are a problem for GAs. Though, I do also have some qualms about the article's notability in general but that's not for GAR. Onegreatjoke (talk) 03:39, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
- I had a quick look at the NHC's website and found links to most of the dead links in here and here. I might be minded to add them in tommorrow but im also not sure if this article should exist. Personally, I dont think dead links are too much of a problem for the GA criteria when the citations are cited up properly, especially when we bear in mind that journals do not need a URL and here we are dealing with an actual product that was issued by an agency rather than jo blogs extremely reliable website that isnt archived in the internet archive.Jason Rees (talk) 04:21, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
- That references be online-only is not a GA criteria. Criteria 2b is "all inline citations are from reliable sources". The bulletins of the US National Hurricane Center are considered reliable for reporting on weather events. Even those that existed before the internet are considered reliable. maclean (talk) 04:27, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
- Per footnote 3 of the GA criteria, dead links are only a GA-relevant problem if they are bare urls. So in this case, they are not. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 08:18, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

A GA from 2015. Has been orange tagged for
- This article reads like a press release or a news article and may be largely based on routine coverage.
- This article's factual accuracy is disputed.
and also has some uncited statements which seemingly include
- These were productive, grain-producing areas, called d'engrais, undeveloped, marginal, predominantly forested land called forestiers, and developing land called d'élèves. Cattle, in particular cows, were used extensively for all types of agricultural work.
- The French Limousin Herd Book was then created in 1886 to ensure the breed's purity and improvement by recording only those animals that satisfied a strictly enforced breed standard.
- that the Limousin breed's origins can be traced to the blonde Garonne breed in the fifth century AD. The Garonne breed from the south-west of France was merged into the Blonde d'Aquitaine breed in 1962. The grey Gasconne breed with which Limousin cattle have a close genetic relationship is also reported to have arrived in the south-west of France with the Visigoths also around the fifth century AD.Limousin cattle are identified as members of an "intensively selected" "blond and red" branch of hardy, heavily muscled, and fine-boned working cattle found in south-west Europe. The branch, which is one of several that have influenced cattle breeding in France, comprises a number of Spanish, Portuguese, and French cattle breeds, which possibly evolved from those introduced during a past occupation of Iberia.

- I'm in favour of a review here. I've made a good number of edits in the last 3 years or so, but not really managed to make any real impression on the substantial and serious problems in the page. I've created or edited many pages on French cattle breeds, and am available to try – to the best of by ability – to make further improvements to this one. In my opinion the page needs prolonged attention from an experienced team of workers with heavy brush-cutting equipment before anything else much can be done.

- and after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, even the Iraqi Jews who had been living in Shanghai from before the outbreak of WWII were interned. Among the refugees in the Shanghai Ghetto was the Mirrer Yeshiva, including its students and faculty. On 3 September 1945, the Chinese Army liberated the Ghetto and most of the Jews left over the next few years. By 1957, there were only one hundred Jews remaining in Shanghai.

- The most pleasant seasons are generally spring, although changeable and often rainy, and autumn, which is usually sunny and dry. With monthly percent possible sunshine ranging from 34% in March to 54% in August, the city receives 1,895 hours of bright sunshine annually. Extremes since 1951 have ranged from −10.1 °C (14 °F) on 31 January 1977 (unofficial record of −12.1 °C (10 °F) was set on 19 January 1893) to 40.9 °C (106 °F) on 13 July 2022 at a weather station in Xujiahui.
- Skyscrapers outside of Lujiazui include the White Magnolia Plaza in Hongkou, the Shimao International Plaza in Huangpu, and the Shanghai Wheelock Square in Jing'an.

- Other forms of Christianity in Shanghai include Eastern Orthodox minorities and, since 1996, registered Christian Protestant churches.
- Shanghai is also home to the cadre school China Executive Leadership Academy in Pudong and the China Europe International Business School. The city government's education agency is the Shanghai Municipal Education Commission.
- Futuristic structures, such as the Oriental Pearl Tower and the neon-illuminated Yan'an Elevated Road, are examples that have boosted Shanghai's cyberpunk image.

- @TenPoundHammer: Went back to the reviewed version and restored the section at the time the article was promoted. In regards to WP:BIO1E, the guideline states: "If the event is highly significant, and the individual's role within it is a large one, a separate article is generally appropriate." Larson's episodes are easily the most notable and historically significant throughout the entire PYL franchise's history as they forced the producers to modify the big board's lighting patterns. Given Larson unquestionably also had the largest role in the event, I would strongly oppose a merge or an AFD in this case regardless of how this GAR ends. --Bcschneider53 (talk) 17:27, 1 February 2023 (UTC)

A GA from 2021. Not much work needed, just two main problems. One, Some areas lack citations here and there, would like some fixing. Two, and my main problem, article needs to be updated as many parts of the article are sourced to the 2011 and 2016 census. Also a table for the 2022 federal election needs to be added. Though, since Steelkamp is active I feel as if he can fix this with enough effort. Onegreatjoke (talk) 01:35, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
- You're right, this should be easily fixable and I will have it all done by today. I will note that I was holding off on updating the census bit because of a discussion on the Australian Wikipedians' notice board but that seems to have died down with no consensus so I will duly update that section.

A GA from 2007. There's some uncited material such as
- When the French colonized Vietnam, one of the most famous and popular dishes, Pot-au-feu was subsequently introduced to the local people. While it didn't directly create the widely recognizable Vietnamese dish, Pho, it served as a reference for the modern-day form of Pho.
- There are many dishes that are considered part of French national cuisine today. A meal often consists of three courses, hors d'œuvre or entrée (introductory course, sometimes soup), plat principal (main course), fromage (cheese course) or dessert, sometimes with a salad offered before the cheese or dessert.
- Cabécou cheese is from Rocamadour, a medieval settlement erected directly on a cliff, in the rich countryside of Causses du Quercy.This area is one of the region's oldest milk producers; it has chalky soil, marked by history and human activity, and is favourable for the raising of goats.
- Anibal Camous, a Marseillais who lived to be 104, maintained that it was by eating garlic daily that he kept his "youth" and brilliance. When his eighty-year-old son died, the father mourned: "I always told him he wouldn't live long, poor boy. He ate too little garlic!"
- French Guianan cuisine or Guianan cuisine is a blend of the different cultures that have settled in French Guiana. Creole and Chinese restaurants are common in major cities such as Cayenne, Kourou and Saint-Laurent-du-Maroni. Many indigenous animal species such as caiman and tapir are used in spiced stews.
- The entire foods and ingredients section.
And many more that need to be addressed. Onegreatjoke (talk) 17:51, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

Possible reassessment requested since March last year. The article contains some uncited text, and doesn't have an update after ~2006. Is DNR still "developing the area with nature trails and other improvements"? —Femke 🐦 (talk) 14:58, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

The article hasn't been maintained to standards after the 2010 GA, and does not meet the broadness criterion for his career afterwards. Has been marked for possible reassessment since 2021. Not quite a GA issue, but the article is full of WP:Proseline. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 12:36, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

- Result: Delist - I find a WP:silent consensus too weak to close on neutrality issues of an article like this, but the verifiability issues and outdatedness issues are enough to delist. Femke (alt) (talk) 08:01, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
This article is currently a way off meeting the GA criterion of verifiability. It has had a verification needed tag since December 2021, and there are nine citation needed tags throughout the page. Since the article was promoted to GA status in 2010, instances of the existing material being demonstrably incorrect have also come to light on talk that call into question both the article's accuracy and neutrality. This has caused at least one other editor to also question the article's GA status. The article also no longer covers the main aspects of the topic properly. There is a dearth of information post-1979, and there has seemingly been not a single update since 2013, making the content grossly outdated. The page also irrelevantly recounts the emigration of Zoroastrians to India, yet, despite the sizeable population there, and the huge tensions between different minorities, it makes no mention of the state of persecution, or lack therein, in India. Despite having sections on both persecution by other Zoroastrians as well as Christians, the lead does not mention this but slants the subject from the single-minded POV of Muslim persecution of Zoroastrians. The page is meanwhile organized in terms of persecution by Muslims first, other forms later, despite this being anachronous, since the other types of persecution date to Sassanian and Roman times and should simply be included at the beginning of the chronological history of persecution.

So this might just be me reaching too far for something. The article uses general references so there doesn't seem to be much citation issues (though "Beer was not only consumed for its flavor and alcohol content, but because it was safer to drink than water, which often harbored disease-causing microorganisms. Even children drank small beer." needs to be cited). However, my main problem is the prose. There's so many choppy 1-2 sentence paragraphs that make this feel cluttered and I feel as if that's a problem that could be fixed. Onegreatjoke (talk) 16:30, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
- I do personally have a problem with the general references and that has to do with citation 5 being [Fischer, pp. 74, 114, 134–39.]. Though i'm kind of ok with general references, this is 3 different sections and eight different pages of a source and I don't feel that the general reference is used correctly there.

GA from 2015. I do not think that this article is broad enough. It has been eight years since the battle took place. Yet, there's no aftermath section, a seemingly small background, and pretty small article in general. Considering how long it's been, it can probably be expanded on with scholarly sources.

Some uncited information being.
- The large, mild, and white East Asian form was developed in China, though it is mostly associated in the West with the Japanese daikon, owing to Japanese agricultural development and larger exports.
- Although mu is also a generic term for radishes in Korean (as daikon is a generic term for radishes in Japanese), the word is usually used in its narrow sense, referring to Joseon radish(조선무, Joseonmu). In Korean cuisine context, the word Joseon is often used in contrast to Wae, to distinguish Korean varieties from Japanese ones. The longer, thinner, and waterier Japanese daikon cultivated mainly for danmuji is referred to as Wae radish(왜무, Waemu) in Korea. Korean radishes are generally shorter, stouter, and sturdier than daikon, and have pale green shade halfway down from the top. They also have stronger flavour, denser flesh and softer leaves. The greens of Korean radishes are called mucheong(무청) and used as vegetable in various dishes.
- In a 100-gram (3+1⁄2-ounce) reference serving, raw radishes provide 66 kilojoules (16 kilocalories) of food energy and have a moderate amount of vitamin C (18% of Daily Value), with other essential nutrients in low content (table). A raw radish is 95% water, 3% carbohydrates, 1% protein, and has negligible fat.
- Radishes are mostly used in salads, but also appear in many European dishes.[29] In Mexican cuisine, sliced radishes are used in combination with shredded lettuce as garnish for traditional dishes such as tostadas, sopes, enchiladas and Posole stew.
These will have to be cited. Onegreatjoke (talk) 00:31, 1 February 2023 (UTC)

Oldest GA i've seen yet. 2006. Kind of crazy. Anywho, there's lots of uncited material including
- Riesling is also the preferred grape in production of Deutscher Sekt, German sparkling wine. Riesling wines from Germany cover a vast array of tastes from sweet to off-dry halbtrocken to dry trocken. Late harvest Rieslings can ripen to become very sweet dessert wines of the beerenauslese (BA) and trockenbeerenauslese (TBA) class.
- Niagara is a major producer of ice wine in general, putting it neck-and-neck with Germany. Late Harvest wines and some sparkling wines are produced with Riesling in Niagara but it is table wines from dry to off-dry that hold the largest share of production. The climate of the region is typically quite warm in the summertime, which adds a layer of richness in the wines. The founder of St. Urbanshoff in the Mosel, Herman Weiss, was an early pioneer in Niagara's modern viticulture, selling his strain of Mosel clone Riesling to many producers in west Niagara (these vines are well over 20 years old now). This clone and Niagara's summer heat make for uniquely bright wines and often show up in interesting dry styled versions. Many producers and wine critics will argue that Niagara's best offerings come from the Niagara Escarpment region, which encompasses the Short Hills Bench, 20 Mile Bench, and Beamsville Bench. In British Columbia, Riesling is commonly grown for use in icewine, table wine, and sekt-style sparkling wines, a notable example of which is Cipes Brut. In Nova Scotia, particularly in the Annapolis Valley region, Riesling is showing significant promise, being shaped by the warm summer days with cool nights and the extension of the growing season that is being observed. The Maritime climate combined with glacial soils contribute to the interesting expressions that are showing
- Riesling is also widely grown in Luxembourg (where it represents some 12% of the vineyard), Hungary, Italy, particularly Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Croatia, South Africa, Chile and Central Europe, particularly Romania and Moldova, Serbia, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.
