Failed "good article" nomination
This article has failed its Good article nomination. This is how the article, as of September 18, 2019, compares against the six good article criteria:


 * 1. Well written?: fail
 * 2. Verifiable?: pass
 * 3. Broad in coverage?: fail
 * 4. Neutral point of view?: pass
 * 5. Stable?: pass
 * 6. Images?: fail

When these issues are addressed, the article can be renominated. If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to have it reassessed. Thank you for your work so far.— I'm Caker18 ! I edit Wikipedia sparingly. (talk) 18:52, 18 September 2019 (UTC)


 * That's not really helpful, could I at least get a comment or something? This plus looking at your time on Wikipedia and edits, I honestly question if you're ready to make these kind of reviews. Obviously not meant in a rude way. --HistoryofIran (talk) 19:20, 18 September 2019 (UTC)


 * if you bothered looking at the GA/Instructions you would have realized there are no limits as to who can make these kind of reviews. This just barely qualifies as a non-stubbed article. As such, it is too short and doesn't adequately cover the topic properly. Usually, for biographical articles, you need at least some information on the person's upbringing, career (in this case reign, which you already have), and later life, as well as enough images (you have two) and context (i.e. hobbies or pastimes). For comparison, see this page, or this page. I'm Caker18 ! I edit Wikipedia sparingly. (talk)  21:45, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
 * That doesn't change the fact that reviews are usually done by experienced editors - most of your already very few 300 edits have been on talk pages. Please take your time to write more articles yourself (from scratch) and get acquianted with Policies and guidelines and its subpages. Mind you; I know you acted out of WP:GOODFAITH. Anyways, if you bothered (using your own language now) to use more than 2 minutes of your time to review this, you would see that there isn't really anything else to write about him. Also, where would you want more images? There isn't enough space for more. You're also contradicting yourself, as the GA article Ye Jizhuang literally has one image (I don't need any comparison either, I have 13 GA articles, no I'm not flexing, just stating facts). I'm gonna have this reassessed. --HistoryofIran (talk) 22:01, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Instead of attacking me based on my edits on Wikipedia, I recommend you think of me as, for example, a Language Studies professor. See, you don't know who I am. Even though I am not a ELA professor, you can't jump to conclusions based on who I appear to be. Sure, it might have one image. I'm just trying to point out areas of improvement. Why don't you shoot for something like Walter Woon? Are you too afraid to? There are plenty of things to say about him. If there isn't enough, it's just not broad enough in coverage. There are articles and journals aplenty about Phraates V. I quite honestly want you to stop judging users based on their edit counts. According to WP:EDITCOUNT, "Edit counts are a quick and crude aid when trying to measure a Wikipedian's experience in the Wikipedia community." A crude aid. It doesn't affect my experience in real life, does it? Go ahead, have it reassessed. I'm Caker18 ! I edit Wikipedia sparingly. (talk)  22:08, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm not attacking you. Articles just as short as this one if not shorter have been made GA for good reason, but obviously you already know that. Good day.  --HistoryofIran (talk) 22:10, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
