GA Review

[edit]

Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch

Reviewer: Ypnypn (talk · contribs) 01:56, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Result: Fail

The article fulfills criteria 3 (broad and summary-style), 4 (neutral), 5 (stable), and 6 (images). As for 2 (references), 2a and 2c are fulfilled. I did not check the sources, so I will not judge for criterion 2b. Criterion 1b (Manual of Style) is also fulfilled.

Unfortunately, the article fails criterion 1a, which requires correct grammar. As it stands, the article has many, many grammar errors. Even without detailing every error past the geography section, I've discovered the following:

  1. On at least my browser, "agro" and "machinery" (3rd paragraph) are on separate lines. Either use a non-breaking space or a hyphen.
  2. "service sector activities like administrative services, agricultural trading, tourism..." You probably meant "such as administrative..."
  3. "Veterinary College and research Institution" uses very unusual (and probably incorrect) capitalization.
  4. "Tirunelveli is well-connected by road and rail" – do you mean within the city or between the city and other cities?
  5. "obtained the region by conquer or voluntary accession"; what does "by conquer" mean?
  6. In the 1st paragraph of the history section, is the word "the" used before "Cholas"? Be consistent.
  7. "in the black soil rich eastern portions" is ambiguous. Use commas and/or hyphens to clarify.
  8. "was repeatedly captured several times...in the middle of 18th century" is redundant, and the second part is ambiguous. Do you mean middle as in the very middle, so all the captures happened in the same few years?
  9. "Khan became renter" – huh?
  10. The article uses "BCE" and "CE", but also uses "Christian era". Be consistent.
  11. "head quarters" (History, par. 4) should be one word.
  12. "bifurcated" (ibid.) is not the right word for what you mean.
  13. "during 1986" – how about in "1986".
  14. "average elevation of 47 metres msl(154 ft)" – what does "msl" mean?
  15. In the geography section, use either "northeast" or "north east"; be consistent.
  16. "fluctuations in the monsoon rains or flooding of the Tamarabarani river has..." should be "have..."
  17. "Chilli and tobacco plantation was introduced..." – do you mean "Chilli and tobacco plantations were introduced..."?
  18. In that sentence, use chronological order.
  19. "The most common tree is the Palmyrah tree which is used" needs to make up its mind if it's singular or plural.
  20. "as raw material for the cottage industries" – are there really several cottage industries?
  21. "sheeps" (Geography par. 2) is not a word.
  22. What does "minor set of other animals" mean?

I am therefore failing this article. I suggest that you find an editor who can help you fix up the grammar here; perhaps check out Category:User en-N. Please feel free to nominate this article again once its quality improves. Ypnypn (talk) 03:23, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I will nominate for GOCE and will renominate. Thanks a lot for taking up the review. Ssriram mt (talk) 04:45, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
All these are fixed. Somehow feel the fast fail is done in haste. All these are simple edits and the regulation guideline time period of one week should have been given. Ssriram mt (talk) 03:41, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of Photo Montage

[edit]

The image contains wrong information about Tirunelveli: St. Patrick's Church which is actually located in Tuticorin city is present in Tirunelveli City's photo montage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kingstonberyl (talkcontribs) 09:04, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
