Concerns
I am doing a GA review on Portugal in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008 and my feeling is that the article is rather thin on encyclopedic material, so I wanted to point people to examples of other Eurovision Song Contest articles that had achieved GA status. Upon looking into this one and Greece in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008 I felt that they both were also not broad in coverage, so I will be listing them both for review. As these articles are designed to be sub-articles of both the Eurovision Song Contest 2008 and the Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest (Portugal .... / Greece ...) articles, a reader would assume that they would go into considerable detail about the topic. I would expect decent coverage of the song itself (Irelande Douze Pointe, which has a started article) and the singer (Dustin the Turkey, who also has a started article), as well as John Morrison the voice behind the Turkey character, and the composer Simon Fine. The information is available, it just needs someone willing to do the research and writing to bring it into the article in an appropriate manner. A summary of Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest would also be useful, as this is a standalone article, not a section within another article. It needs, as such, to stand by itself, and give enough information to satisfy the general reader - with a link to the main articles for when people want greater detail. There is a lot of interest in the Eurovision Song Contest - and I can see these being very popular and useful articles. It is also important to get these articles right, as they will be used as examples of Eurovision Song Contest articles for others to follow. My concerns are mainly related to broad coverage, though I also feel that the prose could be sharpened, and perhaps one or two other aspects may need tidying up, but I haven't yet given this a close analysis.

 * I have added a background section, as well as more information on when the artists were revealed, making it more in-line with Greece in ESC 2008. Sims2aholic8 (Michael) (talk) 16:12, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
