This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this GA article for peer review because it might finally be on the road to FA. It has been renamed away from being a biography and towards a legal/ethical case. While that emphasis is much less dramatic than the political conflicts that swirled around this case, a approach that views the article as primarily a legal/historical case has helped the article to settle down.

Comments from Natural Cut: I didn't set out to rewrite your introduction but ended up making rather significant changes that I wanted to check with you on, because sometimes every word has been painstakingly assembled through consensus-building efforts on talk pages. (I didn't feel like reading the 44(!) archive pages.) I'll base my edits to the rest of the article on your response.

One comment I do want to make is that a free image relating to the media frenzy would be useful. Natural Cut (talk) 02:26, 9 March 2009 (UTC)


 * In this case, I would suggest that you be bold. For too long, this case languished as a political battleground for obvious reasons. Now that the emphasis is legal/ethical, it has found focus and, I expect, easier and faster consensus. If what you mean by media frenzy image is this familiar one, then please note that User:Zscout360 deleted it as not free.--Lagelspeil (talk) 03:22, 10 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Alright, I'll go through it with a fine-toothed comb in that case. I had intended to do so today but have been busier than expected. Expect to see something here tomorrow. :-) Natural Cut (talk) 02:46, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Comments from
 * You said you wanted to know what to work on before taking to FAC, and my first suggestion would be to get your references into order. A number of your website references lack publisher and/or last access dates, which are the bare minimum needed for WP:V. Books need publisher, author, and page number on top of title. When you've got those mostly straightened out, drop me a note on my talk page and I'll be glad to come back and look at the actual sources themselves, and see how they look in terms of reliability, like I would at FAC. 00:06, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Done.--Lagelspeil (talk) 02:22, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
