Hi, I think this article needs a fair bit of work before being a GA. I'll list some things to work on and revisit. Casliber (talk · contribs) 10:50, 6 February 2010 (UTC)


 * See guidelines on lead sections - it needs to summarise salient points. I might have a crack at this myself.


 *  Etymology section needs a ref or two.


 *  Geology section - which ice age? Persumably the last. Needs clarifying and reference. Also, any fossils found there?


 *  Climbing section - dangerous - anyone been injured or died? Does the north climb need rock climbing gear? Are there dedicated walking tracks?


 * Flora and fauna - be good to list some of the more unusual unique plants


 * Sinn Fein slogan campaign - needs a ref, as does Irish Civil War


 * Is it protected area - waht goverrment body looks after it?

All sections come up as a bit 'light' and could do with some embellishing. Ultimately, there is a lot of work to do, but I'm happy to leave this open for a couple of weeks and chip in. Note that we're just looking at comprehensiveness. There are some prose issues but figured getting content right was first step. Casliber (talk · contribs) 11:26, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I too have contributed some sources to the article. -- can  dle &bull; wicke  00:10, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Good - that is a start anyway. Will need plenty more buffing yet :) cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 00:18, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

1. Well written?:
 * Prose quality: - not really much prose in the article yet to judge really.
 * Manual of Style compliance:

2. Factually accurate and verifiable?:
 * References to sources:
 * Citations to reliable sources, where required:
 * No original research: - hard to say. I doubt it but referencing needs buffing.

3. Broad in coverage?:
 * Major aspects: - needs expansion, especially geology and flora and fauna sections.
 * Focused:

4. Reflects a neutral point of view?:
 * Fair representation without bias:

5. Reasonably stable?
 * No edit wars, etc. (Vandalism does not count against GA):

6. Illustrated by images, when possible and appropriate?:
 * Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
 * Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
 * Images need WP:ALT text.

Overall:
 * Pass or Fail: - look, this article still needs a fair bit of work on comprehensiveness before we get near GA standard. I'm going to fail it now from inactivity. If you get involved later, I'd be happy to be pinged on improving or reviewing it for GA again. Sorry. Casliber (talk · contribs) 13:01, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
