Talk:Effects of Hurricane Georges in Louisiana/GA1

GA Review
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.''

Hi, I am reviewing this article for GA. It is a nice little article, clearly written. The one problem I have is that it does not follow WP:LEAD which is part of the GA criteria. I have done some minor copy editing of the article which is hopefully OK with you.

 * Your concerns are about the background info not being in the main body of the article right? Just as a note, that's how these articles have been written, Effects of Hurricane Isabel in North Carolina has the same format and is a featured article. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 20:12, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I cannot explain why another article became a FA. All I can do is review this article using the current good article criteria. &mdash; Mattisse  (Talk) 20:39, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I took a shot at it, I hope I did it correctly. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 20:51, 13 June 2009 (UTC)


 * That's fine. You might add a little more to the lead to cover other aspect of the article not mentioned there, such as preparations. The lead is supposed to be a concise summary of the article, so that anyone just reading the lead and not reading further will get the major points. &mdash; Mattisse  (Talk) 20:58, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, I think I got it now. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 21:04, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
