The article is well-written and well-researched. I can't rate it as GA or A-Class, because it has not yet gone through a GA review (or FAC of course). I have decided to rate as GA or A-Class from now only articles which have been upgrated to GA status.--Yannismarou 15:44, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Inconsistance with the inline citations. They should always go after the punctuation mark without a gap between the punctuation mark and the citation.
 * "nicknamed her "The Amiable Baby" because of her good nature." I am not sure if "good nature" could be regarded by some as POV.
 * "She was surprisingly strong and sometimes amused herself by demonstrating how she could lift her tutors off the ground." The last sentence of the paragraph is uncited!
 * "She particularly loved children and, had she not been a Grand Duchess, would have loved nothing more than to marry a Russian soldier and raise a large family." Was that said by herself? Is there a specific contemporary testimony?
 * I don't know if the whole content of "Association with Grigori Rasputin" is relevant to Maria's biography. IMO there are too many details having to do, in general, with the status of Rasputin in the royal family. But, again do not take my opinion as granted on this issue: you may also want to take more opinions for this particular matter.
 * "Life in captivity and murder" is excellent! Great prose there!
 * You could have some more wikilinks. In "Rediscovery and sainthood", for instance, William Maples is not linked to an article, although he has one. "Communists" could also link to an article about the communistic regime of USSR I think.
 * "Some historians believe the account of the "Yurovsky Note," a report filed by commander Yakov Yurovsky with his superiors following the murders, that two of the bodies were removed from the main grave and cremated at an undisclosed area. The rationale was that this action would create doubt that these were the remains of the Tsar and his retinue should the grave be discovered by the Whites because the body count would not be correct." You don't cite the assessments of this historians.
 * Four paragraphs of the above section are dedicated to Anastasia; not to Maria. Should they be included in Maria's biography?
