As I perform the review, I will update the following table. Please look below the table for my questions and comments. Folklore1 (talk) 20:03, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Districts
This section contains two lists of districts: "10 official districts" of "Copenhagen Municipality" and "Districts of Copenhagen". Please explain the difference between the official districts of the municipality and the other districts of Copenhagan. Bear in mind that I have never visited Copenhagan and know little about Europe. Folklore1 (talk) 13:14, 14 January 2014 (UTC)


 * I've linked Municipalities of Denmark now to clarify the difference with districts and have reworded the latter to neighbourhoods which would be a closer rough equivalent.♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:03, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

Municipal government
See the sentence containing "representatives of the council who are given civic duties". Are civic duties actually assigned to the representatives? Or does the sentence need some modification? Folklore1 (talk) 13:28, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * It's a basic overview of the city government, the source states that each representative is given a civic duty to perform and I think the sentences says this, it's very clear I think.♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:11, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 12:58, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

See the sentence containing "Enhedslisten - the Red-Green Alliance was". This is unclear. Does the sentence need one or two mdashes, or some other modification? Folklore1 (talk) 13:32, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * One's the Danish name, one's English, I've placed in brackets now.21:11, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 13:04, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

See the sentence beginning "All members of the council are elected every four years; in". Do you think the text would flow more easily if it was broken into two sentences where the semicolon is currently located? Folklore1 (talk) 13:40, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Doesn't make much difference but I've changed to a period.♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:11, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

"The accounting firm Deloitte" was responsible in 2013, but how long does the firm's contract last? Will the article need revision next year if a competitor outbids Deloitte? Unless Deloitte has a long, multi-year contract, you may want to revise or delete the sentence identifying Copenhagan's auditors. Folklore1 (talk) 13:48, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Not necessary. The source states Deloitte is responsible, that's all that is needed.♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:11, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

Law and order
"The Copenhagen Fire Department" might be a good spot for a paragraph break. (An optional suggestion for improvement, not necessary for GA status.) Folklore1 (talk) 14:02, 14 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Done.♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:11, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 13:19, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Environmental planning
"carbon-neutral" or "carbon nuetral"? Please be consistent. Folklore1 (talk) 14:08, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Well spotted, done!♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:15, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

See "Copenhagen has been rewarded". Does this mean Copenhagen received some sort of prize? Or should "rewarded" be changed to "recognized" or "praised"? Folklore1 (talk) 14:21, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Changed to praised. I believe it has won awards but praised does sound better as you say.♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:15, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 13:08, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Population
See the sentence beginning with "However, we know". Who is we? Folklore1 (talk) 14:32, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Reworded.
 * ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 13:14, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

See "about 1.21 million (1,213,822 (2012)) inhabitants". When parentheses bump into each other, the text gets a bit hard to read. (This is an optional cleanup suggestion, not required for GA status.) Folklore1 (talk) 14:37, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Reworded.
 * ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 13:14, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

"increased rather rapidly leading" needs a comma to clarify it meaning. "rather" is unnecessary and can be omitted. Folklore1 (talk) 14:44, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Removed.♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:20, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 13:14, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Religion
The sentence beginning "However as of 1 January 2013, at 61.6%" is confusing. Please reorganize it so that its meaning will be clear. Folklore1 (talk) 15:41, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Reworded slightly.♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:29, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 13:17, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

"The second most important" should probably be "second most significant" or "second largest". Folklore1 (talk) 15:42, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Changed to significant.♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:29, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 13:17, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Transport
I removed the reference titled "November - KÃ¸benhavns Lufthavne". It linked to a web page that did not support the October 2013 record of 2.2 million passengers. However, there was another reference at the end of the paragraph which supported this statistic. So the bad reference does not need to be replaced and this repair is ✅ Folklore1 (talk) 15:51, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

Dead links
Three references have dead links. I have attached tags to identify them in the References section. Folklore1 (talk) 16:27, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

I have put the article "on hold" for seven days to allow time to repair the three dead links (which I have tagged) or replace the references. Except for the tagged references, I think the article is ready for GA status. If more time is needed, please let me know. Folklore1 (talk) 16:41, 22 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks for pointing out the dead links and also for your other useful comments on the article. I think everything is in order now.--Ipigott (talk) 12:26, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
