'''Starts GA Review. The reassessment will follow the same sections of the Article. ''' --Whiteguru (talk) 11:36, 18 August 2021 (UTC)



Observations

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

HTML document size: 520 kB   Prose size (including all HTML code): 89 kB    References (including all HTML code): 275 kB    Wiki text: 133 kB    Prose size (text only): 45 kB (6918 words) "readable prose size" References (text only): 36 kB


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):


 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):  d (copyvio and plagiarism):
 * Are all Lebanese Arab Christians?
 * went to Rosary Sisters Schools → implies a person is a Christian. Is this a reliable fact?
 * Attendance at Holy Spirit University of Kaslik. → does it follow this university accepts only Christians?
 * attending the Jesuit College of St Joseph in Beirut → accepted only Christians?
 * Consider Mayada El Hennawy. Is she an Arab Christian? Ditto, Nassif Zeytoun. Consider Toni Qattan. The article says he is from Jordan; no mention of religion.
 * Reference 73 does not seem relevant.
 * Reference 179?


 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * The history section is uncharacteristically slim.
 * The history section links to itself. Clarify.
 * The Academia section references solid Arab Christian contributions.
 * The Entertainment section is not as solid as the above. It appears to be name dropping of entertainers.
 * The difference between Academia and Entertainment is that the achievements and contributions are mentioned. Ditto Politics and Press. Both good sections. Consider.
 * Religious Persecution and Regional conflict sections are handled well.
 * The notables section is not well handled. It may benefit from thinning out the many names and inclusion of contributions to human flourishing.
 * the use of Koine Greek in liturgy ... an important distinction.
 * Greek clerical hegemony: there was coverage in the Press.
 * The "demotion" of the Patriarch has been ruled uncanonical by Patriarch Bartholomew, and is not recognized by any Orthodox Church; it has only been (imposed) by the Synod of Jerusalem. Consider.
 * The section on Assyrians. If they are non-Arab, why include this section?
 * State of Palestine: The Vatican and the Catholic Church → are one and the same thing. Drop Catholic Church.


 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:


 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * Page created 8 July 2004
 * Page has 224 watchers
 * Page has 5,362 edits by 1,264 editors
 * 90 day page views = 344,670 with a daily average of 491 viewers.
 * Lot of bots on this page, Anomie Bot, Smack bot, Citation bot, Internet Archive bot.
 * Majority of edits to this page occurred in 2021; 1,301 edits


 * 1) It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 31 images on this page.
 * Infobox Image = File:IconJonArab.JPG = template without license parameter: please specify why the underlying work is public domain in both the source country and the United States
 * File:New Ghassanid Banner.png
 * File:Hunayn ibn-Ishaq al-'Ibadi Isagoge.jpg = template without license parameter: please specify why the underlying work is public domain in both the source country and the United States
 * File:BashirChehab.jpg = copyright issues; author attribution is needed;
 * File:Cyrine AbdelNour 66ème Festival de Venise (Mostra) 6.jpg = tits and ass, hey? Can't see the relevance of this image. Remove it.

 * 1) Overall:
 * We need to resolve the issues with images mention directly above;
 * At a glance, there appears to be too many images on this page;
 * It is observed in the Entertainment section that there are too many names without contributions;
 * The sections under Arabian Peninsula (Kuwait, Bahrain, North Africa, etc.,) might be profitably condensed into two or three paragraphs;
 * This article makes a valiant effort to capture a very broad swathe of Arab Christians, their works and diaspora, in addition to notation of the different communions and orthodox communities with a well laid out table of the differences between these ecclesial communities. A little cleaning up, drop some superfluous pictures and condense some material will see this go to GA status. --Whiteguru (talk) 11:48, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
