GAN Quicksheet 1.23 SM
(Criteria)


Starting comments: Here goes...


1. Well written: Section acceptable

a. prose/copyright: Acceptable
b. MoS compliance: Acceptable

2. Accurate and verifiable: Section acceptable Assuming good faith on the printed sources (i.e. almost everything), as I don't have access to the books you're using.

a. provides references: Acceptable
b. proper citation use: Acceptable
c. no original research: Acceptable

3. Broad in coverage:

a. covers main aspects: Needs work
  • You include details on Ray's second Legion of Merit but no details on his first. Considering that you gave details for both Silver Stars, and the Legion of Merit is a higher level award, I would think that the first would warrant at least a sentence or two of coverage.
b. focused/on topic: Acceptable

4. Neutral: Acceptable

5. Stable: Acceptable

6. Image use:

a. license/tagging correct: Needs work
  • The source for the image, "US Navy photograph", isn't really good enough. Source is more "where did you get it from", i.e. is it scanned from a book? taken from a website? personal collection? If there is more information about the author, that also should be included.
b. relevant/properly captioned: Acceptable

7. Additional items not required for a GA, but requested by the reviewer:

a. images that should have alt texts have them: Acceptable
b. general catch all and aesthetics: Acceptable


Comments after the initial review: Nothing too serious. Should take about 10 minutes to get this into GA shape. I like doing GAN reviews for you MilHist people, you don't make me work very hard. This is also Sven Manguard 19:21, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good to me. Promoting now. Sven Manguard Wha? 22:17, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
