After looking through this article, I cannot pass it for GA. Here is how it compares against the criteria:


 * Is it well-written?: The lead seems somewhat short and does not fully summarize the article. See WP:LEAD for more detail. There are also some instances of incorrect quotations. Per MOS:QUOTEMARKS, ′ should be ', ″ should be ".
 * Is it verifiable?: This is the biggest problem. Every section except for "Exegesis" is missing inline citations. Multiple sections being completely unsourced is enough to qualify for an automatic fail.
 * Is it broad in coverage?: Almost. While there is a section about analysis, it would be beneficial to include what literary scholars and critics have said of this piece. I'm not convinced the "paraphrase" section is really needed.
 * Is it neutral?: Yes
 * Is it stable?: Yes
 * Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?: There are no images in the article. While not a requirement, adding a picture of Shakespeare himself could help.

Before renominating, please remember to source all sections (except for the lead), and make sure this complies with WP:Manual of Style.
