GA Review

 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * 'The task of securing the Arnhem road bridge fell to the British 1st Airborne Division who dropped on the area on 17 September.' - Needs a comma after Division, and it should probably be 'which' not 'who'.
 * No need to capitalize 'Division' unless it's part of a title.
 * 'With the exception of some of the Poles killed south of the river in Driel,' - What happened to the Poles? I'm guessing they were buried elsewhere after the battle, but please clarify slightly.
 * I would convert the lists of the VC winners into prose and make a paragraph out of them.
 * Details of the German dead is a single-sentence paragraph; please merge this into the previous paragraph.
 * I've reworked and referenced the first para of background, and redone the cemetery sections (plus expanded them a bit). As for the Poles, it's a while since I wrote this.  I think I put it because the number of Polish graves don't match the total Polish dead, so I assumed some of these killed at Driel must have been taken when they pulled back.  What happened to them after that I don't know.  Instead I've totally reworded the line.


 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Citing the first paragraph of the background section would be a good idea.
 * Although this won't stop me passing the article, what makes the website used for reference 7 a WP: Reliable Source?
 * Whilst I'd like to be able to make some killer defence of the site, there isn't anything really. It's obviously a personal site, and I usually use the photo galleries for external links, but not as a ref.  I couldn't find this bit of info anywhere else unfortunately, although the photo slideshow the site has slightly backs it up.  Although this doesn't meet WP:RS, my gut feeling is that the site is right on this one, just because it's amassed such a huge collection of materials, and doesn't make many specific claims otherwise.


 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:

Good little article, but needs a bit of prose and MoS work. Skinny87 (talk) 12:12, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
