Failed "good article" nomination
This article failed good article nomination. This is how the article, as of May 27, 2007, compares against the six good article criteria:


 * 1. Well written?: Satisfactory Sub-sections should be divided into further sub-sections
 * 2. Factually accurate?: Satisfactory Fully referenced but the ref section at the bottom needs formatting correctly.
 * 3. Broad in coverage?: Pass
 * 4. Neutral point of view?: Pass
 * 5. Article stability? Pass
 * 6. Images?: Fail ''Image needs external links to where its from, not just text, a more specific copyright tag should be applied.

When these issues are addressed, the article can be resubmitted for consideration. If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to a GA review. Thank you for your work so far. — The Sunshine Man 16:46, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Good article nominaton on hold
Recommendations made in a failed GA nomination have been addressed; however, I am putting this article's GA nomination on hold for a couple of minor reasons: The main things are the intro and the Hemingway reference. If these items can be addressed in one week's time, I can't see why this shouldn't pass as a good article. If more time is needed, let me know. — WiseKwai 05:45, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * The introduction should have more weight. It needs at least one more paragraph that summarizes the contents of the article.
 * The Hemingway suicide needs a reference. Also, can this be expanded?
 * Can any meaningful external links be added?

Good article promotion
I am pleased to promote this as a Good Article.

I did make a minor change that I should have caught earlier, and that was a piped link for the Northwest Newspaper Guild. Typically, piped links are frowned upon, especially in good articles. I tracked down a reference that provides general background on the strike, and through that, readers could stumble upon the Guild's website if they choose.

Anyway, good work. I encourage you to keep expanding and improving the article. — WiseKwai 18:08, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
