Result pending I am asking for a reassessment/delisting as it fails section two of the good article criteria, "It is factually accurate and verifiable." More accurately, it fails 2b, "at minimum, provides in-line citations from reliable sources for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons". With virtually no inline citations I don't see this as a GA. Wizardman 13:22, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Every statement in this article is verifiable by checking the References section. Inline citations are not and have never been necessary on Misplaced Pages. Shii (tock) 04:44, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delist. While Wikepedia doesn't require in-line citations for articles, it does requires them for GA listing. Please examine Good Article criteria, specifically 2-b. It states that a Good Article "provides in-line citations from reliable sources for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons".

"at one time I coveted an official post with a tenure of land"
"there was a time when I was fascinated with the ways of homosexual love"
"the alternatives battled in my mind and made my life restless." Wizardman 05:42, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, cited. Shii (tock) 06:01, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
There's a couple of assertions in the article which also need to be supported through in-line citations -- I've tagged them. The lead also needs to be better developed per WP:LEAD. Thanks, Majoreditor (talk) 22:05, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
