 * GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * Article is well written and laid out.
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * Very well-referenced with inline citations throughout the text. Stands up to a quick spotcheck of online references.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * The topic is broadly covered with relevant detail where necessary, covering the reasons why the concert was developed, issues surrounding the event itself, and a brief discussion of subsequent relevant events inspired by this one.
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * It is well-balanced with no bias issues
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No content disputes or edit wars. No problems with vandalism.
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * No images at present, but that is ok for a GA. Not sure if any free use content is available, but this might need a few images if it went forward to FAC.
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass A very interesting and informative article about an early instance of pop music being used to raise public awareness of world issues. This is almost certainly worth a shot at FAC, as it has the length and detail to satisfy their criteria, and would make a good featured article. You may want to request a copy edit or peer review before submitting it for FAC, but I think it would stand a good chance there. Congratulations and good luck.

 * Thank you so much, that's excellent news. I do have an image in mind actually, a photo of a sign from outside the MSG box office. (If I could just get my scanner to work properly ...) Cheers, JG66 (talk) 06:12, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
