I love this game, but I almost ever lose XD


 * GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * "See the example to the right:" - per WP:YOU, reword the phrase, eg "As can be seen in the right picture..."
 * The same for " See Rules of Go: Repetition for further information."
 * I think the Passing section can be merged with the Basic rules section.
 * "The Ing and the New Zealand rulesets don’t have this rule," - What is the Ing ruleset? Maybe link or describe it.
 * " While it originated in China, today it is commonly associated with Japan and Korea." - why?
 * "For further information, see Rules of Go." - same
 * The confusing tag is out of place. I don't really see anything confusing so far. You may want to remove the banner
 * Phases of the game is a weak section. Introduce more in-line citations as it has percents and other numbers. This is to avoid original research
 * "said to have had his counselor Shun design it for his unruly son, Danzhu, to favorably influence him.[54]" - confusing, especially after reading "Legends trace the origin of the game to Chinese emperor Yao (2337–2258 BC),"
 * "and in 1935, the American Go Association was formed. Two years later, in 1937, the German Go Association was founded." source needed
 * "who scored an impressive 80% in these " - POV, already stated it was of special note
 * "Modern and low-cost alternatives" needs citations, eg for the prize claim (to avoid original reasearch)
 * Ditto for last paragraph of "Playing technique and etiquette"
 * "The strongest computer chess programs defeat the best human players (for example, the Deep Fritz program, running on a laptop, beat reigning world champion Vladimir Kramnik without losing a single game in 2006). " -irrelevant for this article
 * "The corporation and brand Atari was named after the Go term." - source?
 * Where there any studies on a potential IQ increase?
 * The Taoist teaching of Yin and Yang is often associated with Go
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * 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:

 * At least there is some activity here. Fix the remaining issues and I will pass. I will give you 1 week. Regards.--Kürbis (✔) 10:19, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I see grey blobs, a green blob, and a pink blob. I wonder which of these indicate "issues"? Maproom (talk) 22:14, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Fail Almost no changes were made in the nearly 3 weeks. Regards.--Kürbis (✔) 12:02, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
