Talk:The Political Cesspool/GA1

GA Review
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.''

1. 'Well-written - Prose and Manual of Style


 * For the title of the article, The Politcal Compass should be italiczed.
 * In the "Foundation and history section", please wiki Tennessee House of Representatives in the first paragraph this section rather than the "Awards" section. This is where THR first appears. For the second paragraph, who is the real name of "Winston Smith"? For the third paragraph, please list CofCC after Council of Conservative Citizens on initials in the first sentence and italicize The Nation in the second sentence of that same paragraph. Italicize American Free Press in the fourth paragraph.
 * In the "Statement of principles" section for the "...and its statement of principles is:", change to "...and its statement are as follows:" For principle number 7 on secession, in 1776, was this part of the American Revolution of 1775-83, and for 1865, secession took place in 1860 with the American Civil War fo 1861-5? Please clarifiy this.


 * Comment: "...and its statement are as follows:" doesn't make grammatical sense to me (singular "statement", plural "follows"). Perhaps you mean "...and its statement of principles is as follows:"?


 * Second of all, as far as the American Revolution and Civil War things go, those are James Edwards' words, not mine. I presume the 1776 date is a reference to the Declaration of Independence, but I can't read anyone else's mind to know for sure. The 1865 thing appears to be a mistake on James' part. Would be a good idea for us to put in something like (NOTE: the Confederate States of America actually seceded in 1860) after that sentence? Stonemason89 (talk) 21:39, 4 October 2009 (UTC)


 * In the "Activism" section, wiki Memphis in the first sentence and pipe in Shelby County, Tennessee in the "county" between "black" and "official". For the first sentence of the second paragraph, put in Paula Zahn Now in parentheses after Paula Zahn's CNN show which is now discontinued.
 * In the "Controversey and criticism" section, put SPLC after the Southern Poverty Law Center in the first sentence of the first paragraph. For the last sentence of the second paragraph, please wikilink Women's National Basketball Association.

2. Factually accurate and verifiable


 * For "Political Cesspool on Facebook" in the "External links", please list "Log in required" after the link.
 * Rest is fine.

3. Broad coverage - no issues.

4. Neutral - no issues.

5. Stable - Comment: Additional changes made after review was started on October 2, 2009, but this assisted the article in its growth, even cleaning up one deadlink reference and piping in a second reference.

6. Images - No issues. Both pictures posted had proper copyright tags.

7. Overall - Placing on hold until the following items can be resolved. Chris (talk) 18:23, 4 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment: I have taken care of all the review issues mentioned here, except for two involving the statment of principles, which I would like some clarification on (see my comments above). Stonemason89 (talk) 21:39, 4 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Reply. I told you wrong on the the front title. This should be bold and italicized which can be done by adding five 's before and after the title. Sorry about that. About your first comment in the "Statement of principles" section, go with your suggestion. Sorry about that. Same thing with the second suggestion you have listed. This should help you on that. The rest of the corrections look good. Chris (talk) 21:50, 4 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Done. Looks like everything has been taken care of now, is this true? Stonemason89 (talk) 22:57, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
 * It is. You got GA on this article. Congratulations. Chris (talk) 23:12, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
