WikiProject Women in Green/20-Minute Article Assessment
I'm doing a 20-Minute Article Assessment per GraziePrego's request at Wikiproject Women in Green. Assessing on the six Good article criteria:


 * Article is stable and focused. Appears to be broad but always hard to say on a quick look - you do seem quite reliant on ABC news? It's a reliable source but perhaps it's good to use other news sources as well. In fact through reading the ADB entry I think you could add more details about her politics, for example using this sentence - "She used it as a forum through which to draw attention to social issues, including eating disorders, anaphylaxis, human trafficking, climate change, and live animal exports." Residence and children are mentioned in the infobox but not in article.
 * Verifiability - references are decent, she is certainly notable per WP:ANYBIO as well. Earwig doesn't flag any copyvio issues.
 * "As Deputy Speaker, Burke was deprived of her deliberative vote, being able only to vote in the case of a tie. On 9 October 2012, Peter Slipper resigned as Speaker of the House.[9]" - only the second of the two sentences is backed by the source?
 * "In the 2013 federal election, Burke suffered a 4.18% swing (2PP) against her in Chisholm, but was re-elected with 51.6% of the 2PP vote. Her tenure as Speaker ended with the defeat of the Rudd government, and the Abbott government appointed Bronwyn Bishop as Speaker. She then sought to become chief opposition whip but was not successful.[10]" - hmm same like above, only the last sentence is verifiable from the source. a source needs however to back everything before it not just the last sentence. I've run out of time to check other refs, but I'd be concerned if this pattern continued.
 * The one image is relevant and appropriately licensed
 * Prose
 * maybe "The member for Fisher" could be "the member for the division of Fisher"?
 * The sentences in "Retirement from politics" section could be pulled into one paragraph
 * Overall - slight concern over broadness, the article seemed otherwise in good state until checking citations turned up issues which would def need to be sorted before a GA nom. Hope this helps! Mujinga (talk) 15:20, 8 October 2023 (UTC)


 * whoops forgot to add comments on the lead:
 * " She was only the second woman to become Speaker, after Joan Child." - this is in the lead but not mentioned below and not cited anywhere.
 * I'd say it's worth adding the Officer of the Order of Australia here as well

 * Thank you very much for your assessment! Those are very useful directions for further work on this article. GraziePrego (talk) 23:18, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
