This is an excellent article. The prose is good and written in an engaging way, although there are a few clumsy sentences. I decided to fix the worst ones myself; the rest shouldn't be obstacles for becoming GA. The article is very comprehensive without losing focus. The structure is excellent and everything seems be where it naturally belongs. All major viewpoints appear to be covered, and although the subject is somewhat controversial, the article does not seem to take any sides.

I was able to find only two issues:
 * the second paragraph in "After the Orange Revolution" is missing a citation
 * the first part of "2006 parliamentary election" needs a citation. The given ref is a dead link.

Placing the article on hold until these are fixed. Reviewer: Offliner (talk) 04:08, 10 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I'll try to fix the issues (unfortunately I have lees time to edit wikipedia this year because of Real Life Changes). I hope I can find some references in English; but might have to use Ukrainian or Russian ones... I am especially pride about your " the article does not seem to take any sides" observation ;) —  Mariah-Yulia  • Talk to me!  17:55, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Already made a start getting new references:
 * paragraph "After the Orange Revolution" does look to me to have enough references;
 * found some more dead links in paragraph "2006 parliamentary election" hope to find time to find and add some replacements and new ones this week

I get the idea that before 2007 Ukrainian editors did not place references in political articles... —  Mariah-Yulia  • Talk to me!  21:43, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
