I've listed this article for peer review because I have substantially re-wrote, re-structured, and ref-filled the article. I am seeking an upgrade of the rating to at least "B", with comments and recommendation for further improvement.

I will review this article from the point of the B-class criteria.

Criterion 1 is not met: there is significant uncited material, especially in the "Family" section. All of this needs to be cited using inline citations before B-class can be achieved. There is also a failed verification tag elsewhere in the article.

Criterion 2 seems to be mostly met. However, there are aspects of material that hint at more things to be included. For example, the lead notes that "Fan's philosophical, educational and political contributions continue to be influential to this day, and his writings remain a core component of the Chinese literary canon." This sort of topic is not followed up on in the body, and if the sentence is true, the article remains incomplete.

Criterion 3 is met. The lead could be better structure, with two paragraphs instead of one, but it is fine as is. The rest of the article has adequate structure for B-class.

Criterion 4 is somewhat met. While the prose is mostly well-written, better care needs to be taken with using other languages in prose. See MOS:OTHERLANG and MOS:FORITA for suggestions on how to go about doing that.

Criterion 5 is met. The first three images are all illustrative, while the last, while unclear, is still useful. An infobox is present (although as noted above much of the content it contains is not cited in the body).

Criterion 6 is met. It meets WP:MTAU.

At the moment, the article is around C-class standard. To get to B-class, the major stumbling point is criterion 1). Once that is fixed, you can be sure that the article is close to B-class, and might even do well at a GA nomination. Feel free to ping me if you have questions. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 23:59, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
