Checking against GA criteria

 * 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):
 * Moore travelled to Japan to secure a Goto Mars projector. Can you explain what a "Goto Mars projector" is?
 * Not really, heh. It is just a brand of projector, so I added a link to Image projector to clarify.--EchetusXe 16:21, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
 * ' 'He was nominated onto the International Astronomical Union'' "onto the board of"?
 * I'm not sure it is a board, so I changed it to 'nominated into' the union.--EchetusXe 16:21, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorted and cited. Jezhotwells (talk) 00:46, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
 * ' 'In January 1998, part of Moore's observatory in his garden was destroyed by a tornado which passed through the area; the observatory was subsequently rebuilt.'' would be better located later on for chronological consistency.
 * Absolutely.--EchetusXe 16:21, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
 * though condemned the Liberal Democrats, stating that he believed they would their position radically missing verb
 * Well spotted, thnx.--EchetusXe 16:21, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * References cite "Moore 2000" but the book is given as "Moore, Patrick (2003), The Autobiography, Sutton Publishing, ISBN 0747264279" in the works cited.
 * Well spotted there on the mistake that was copy-pasted all over the place.--EchetusXe 16:21, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Otherwise, well referenced, no OR, spotchecks verify statements, assume good faith for off-line sources
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * Good coverage
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * NPOV
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * stable
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
