Talk:Snakes and Earrings

20-minute article assessment
As requested as part of the current Women in Green editathon, I've had a look through this article with an eye towards GA nomination, and honestly I think it's ready to be nominated. A few points to think about:


 * It seems strange to have the third section in the article be the one which discusses the background to the novel; I would be inclined to put that first
 * All of the academic analysis discussed is English-language and written by westerners. Obviously this English wikipedia and that is to be expected, but I wonder whether there's any Japanese-language scholarship on the book? I don't think this is strictly necessary at GA-level, but if you were ever to nominate for Featured Article this would certainly be asked!
 * The citations to Welsh and Driscoll have parenthetical page numbers, but those to Holloway's two articles and to DiNitto don't: any reason for this? Generally I would include page numbers for all of these longer articles.

None of this is an impediment to GA status, though, and I would expect that a review would go fairly smoothly. Caeciliusinhorto-public (talk) 08:35, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
 * , thanks so much for taking the time to look this article over. The feedback is really helpful. I'll make a few changes based on your comments (section order, +Japanese analysis, page numbers for long articles throughout) and then start the GA nomination.
