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


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * Good for the most part, just a few copy-edits are needed:
 * "The monument was positioned on the upper terrace of Pyramid O-13, where, as Megan O'Neil notes, the living king would stood.[5]" - Would have stood.
 * "Stela 15 is innovative, because it depicts the leader in the round, meaning it is almost a thee-dimensional sculpture." - This could be phrased better as "making it an almost three-dimensional sculpture.
 * "These names are difficult to translate because they are unique as to what is found in the extant Mayan glyphic texts.[11]" - rewrite to something similar to "these names are difficult to translate because many are unique when compared to extant Mayan glyphic texts."-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 15:32, 10 November 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Author names for sources should be lowercase except for the first letter in each name. The reference section is well-structured otherwise, and the article adequately cites references.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 15:33, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Resolved.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 00:35, 13 November 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * All major aspects are covered, and cultural and historical context is provided.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 15:32, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * Fairly presents the subject.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 15:32, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * Highly stable, basically a single-author article.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 16:04, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * Images check out. All free, with correct licensing info.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 16:04, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) Overall: Just needs some copy-edits.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 15:32, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
 * All issues resolved. Pass.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 00:35, 13 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Pass/Fail:
 * Fixed the prose issues. As for the author names, see here.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   16:28, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Prose issues fixed, see my reply to the caps issue on the talk page you linked.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 16:56, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I have fixed the caps.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   23:53, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Resolved. I had no idea an ALL CAPS parameter existed, and I have no idea what it is used for. Couldn't find anything under the "cite book" documentation.-- &iquest;3fam  ily6  contribs 00:35, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
