I will review this soon! IntentionallyDense (talk) 02:53, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Rate	Attribute	Review Comment
1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	prose is good. no complaints. IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
	1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.	Lead could be improved. IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
2. Verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check:
	2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.	IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
	2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).	I checked about half the sources and found no issues. IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
	2c. it contains no original research.	IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
	2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.	IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
3. Broad in its coverage:
	3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.	There aren't many sources on the topic so the current amount of sources provided is understandable. IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
	3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).	IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
	4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.	IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
	5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.	IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
	6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.	IntentionallyDense (talk) 18:28, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
	6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.	IntentionallyDense (talk) 18:28, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
	7. Overall assessment.	On hold pending adjustments to the lead. IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC) The lead looks much better now and no free images are available so I'm going to mark this as passed! Good job to everyone who brought this article up to GA standards it looks great! IntentionallyDense (talk) 18:28, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

• Just confirming, is there no available photos of the subject? IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

  There are some images in newspapers that I could pull but I'm unsure of copyright status. Kline • talk • contribs 13:52, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

  I don't think those are free images so I'm going to mark those areas as passed. IntentionallyDense (talk) 18:25, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

• The current lead of this article isn't what I would expect from a GA. I suggest rewriting it so it doesn't need references and expanding it a bit. Wikipedia:How to create and manage a good lead section has lots of great advice for this. IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

  Rewritten. Check it out when you can. Kline • talk • contribs 17:30, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

  Perfect the lead looks so much better this was exactly what I was looking for! IntentionallyDense (talk) 18:26, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
