Linkrot: found and fixed six. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:47, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

Checking against GA criteria

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


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * Reasonably well written, a few stray sentences and short paragraphs need consolidation
 * I've addressed a few of these - any others that stick out? Bretonbanquet (talk) 23:11, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
 * No that's fine now. Jezhotwells (talk) 00:24, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Some long outstanding citation needed tags
 * Encyclopaedia Metallum is a type of wiki therefore not a WP:RS.
 * Likewise BlabbermouthNet
 * Wikipedia is not a reliable source
 * Cites to newspapers or magazine articles need author, publication date and publisher at the very least.
 * I've addressed the citation needed tags, changed the Encyclopedia Metallum and Blabbermouth refs and I've no idea how the link to Wikipedia got in there... changed that too. Any other pointers on this? Some of these refs aren't mine so I'm not familiar with them - if you can clarify any individual problems, I'd be grateful.

 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * Broad, no unnecessary detail
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * NPOV
 * 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):
 * Images licensed and captioned.
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * On hold for seven days for above issues to be addressed. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:11, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
 * All OK now, an interesting article. I am happy to list this as a GA. Congratulations! Jezhotwells (talk) 00:24, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
