Checking against GA criteria

 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * Sarama followed the tracks of the thieves and helped god Indra recover them. "the god Indra"?
 * Sarama is described to have found for the fire-god Agni the milk of the cattle... Very poor prose
 *  By finding the cattle for the Angirasas, she is interpreted to have helped them to supply for themselves milk and butter for sacrifice. again poor grammar.
 * Sarama Deva-shuni ("bitch of the dogs") is regarded the authoress of her speech in this hymn., better to use "author", authoress is archaic.
 *  Brief allusions to Sarama in rest of the hymns like in a hymn by Parashara Shaktya. Very poor prose.
 * and repeats that a conversation took place between Sarama and the Panis.
 * OK, please take this away and get it copy-edited so that it it is "reasonably good prose". The WP:Guild of Copyeditors may be able to help. This should not have been nominated in this rather bad state.
 * THe WP:LEAD should fully summarise the article.
 * 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):
 * "By the path of truth", she found the cows., needs explanation.
 * Sarvanukaramani of Katyayana also mentions about Panis' offer to Sarama and her refusal., needs explanation.
 * 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:
 * Another poor nomination. Please read Good article criteria.  Articles that do not meet these criteria should not be nominated here. Fail GA nomination. If you have other sub-standard nominations in the queue, please remove them and get the prose sorted out. Jezhotwells (talk) 23:24, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
