I fixed parts needing attention. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 22:05, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

1b—MOS

• Lead: The lead can be reworked, can you expand it so that it summarises main points from the body? --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:26, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
• Layout:
• Words to watch: @ClydeFranklin: Throughout the article, it's Richard J. Worley, what is the J. initial? Please add in full if possible or remove entirely. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:47, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

  The Police career section appears to be close paraphrasing of www.baltimorepolice.org/about/police-commissioner. It needs to be rewritten. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 20:53, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

  His, DOB is also not clear, is there no source confirming his exact date of birth? Instead of saying 1964 or 1965. Otherwise, let's use circa by implementing the {{circa}} template.

  Something like this would make sense: Richard Worley (c. 1965) is an American police officer ... then on the subsequent occurence, you could just use c. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 21:26, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

No detection of plagiarism/copyvio. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:38, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

3—Broad in its coverage

3a—major aspects

This article is generally not broad in it's coverage. Because this is a BLP, even though some major aspects are covered. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:26, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

3b—focused

This is good to go. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:27, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

4—NPOV

This is good to go. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 22:06, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

5—Stable

No recent edit/move wars, so this is okay. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:45, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

6a and b—appropriate use of images with suitable captions

Image on infobox (licensed in cc-by-2.0) was extracted from another image which was licensed under the terms of cc-by-2.0. Also, image is relevant because it is an image of Richard Worley. So this is okay. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:43, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

7—Overall

Pass/Fail:

While there's an issue with the coverage which is the only criteria not met here, I am happy to give this article a quick pass. Congratulations!
