Solidarity (UK)
Self nomination. First attempt to nominate an article. In relation to the nomination criteria:
 * I believe the article is comprehensive for the topic.
 * The article has been checked for accuracy against a variety of sources.
 * I'm not great at evaluating if the text is well-written.
 * Uncontroversial: despite some worries about NPOV on first draft, a number of different editors have come through and NPOVed it.
 * Best work, "what Wikipedia offers that is unique on the Internet," this article provides an encyclopedic entry for a minor left-wing group. This kind detailed encyclopedic treatment of minority interests is central to Wikipedia.  An account like this is unique on the web: alot of people reproduce Solidarity pamphlets, but few sites discuss what it was in historical context.
 * I think its got a sufficient lead section.
 * Images are inappropriate for the article: despite a fast and loose copyright policy on the libertarian socialist left, all Solidarity images are still formally under copyright, and the organisation no longer exists to change its licenses. If someone would like to locate a public domain hedgehog image, that would be appropriate.
 * Headings are in. References are in.  I believe it to be in style.

Looking forward to your critique. Fifelfoo 03:43, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * Object. No references. Needs further ilinking after lead. Could use some pic as well. A signinfact part - at lest 25% - of the article is quotes, half ot which are not attributed clearly. This need to be fixed and the article itslelf expanded, so it is no longer just a quote repository. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 10:52, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Object agree with previous and I would like to see a history section as well.
 * Object I've been fiddling with this on and off and I agree that it's far from finished.--Paulanderson 13:04, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
