Siege
Review commentary
- MilHist WikiProject notified
One of the early promotions before the vogue for inline citations. An unsourced quote and example farm can be easily dealt with by removal, but a more thorough tune-up should also be considered. DrKiernan (talk) 08:37, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
Doing a little copyediting and MOS cleanup, but yes, citations sorely needed here. Maralia (talk) 04:57, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
FARC commentary
- Suggested FA criteria concern are citations. Also note the recent change to WP:WIAFA (1c) requiring "high-quality" sources. YellowMonkey (cricket calendar poll!) 05:14, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delist, per FA criteria concerns. Cirt (talk) 07:53, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Mor lam
Review commentary
- Notified: User_talk:Henry_Flower, Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Thailand, Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Southeast Asia, Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Rock music/Regional and national rock music taskforce.
FA from 2004, referencing/1c issues, could use a review of the images to see if the two free-use have appropriate documentation and if the fair-use image is appropriately used or is something that could be replaced by a free-use image, or simply described in the article's text. Cirt (talk) 07:52, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
- The article should follow a well defined transcription method for the many Thai words it contains. Preferred standard for Thai in wikipedia is Royal Thai General System of Transcription or RTGS. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Woodstone (talk • contribs) 09:17, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
- Advocacy of your preferred transcription system is of course entirely legitimate, but it´s misleading to suggest that it is the standard on Misplaced Pages. For much discussion, see Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Thailand#Romanization and the related drafts. In any case, there´s a lot more Lao and Isan here than Thai.
- As far as referencing goes, you can decide for yourselves whether it meets currrent FA requirements. ;) Henry 13:41, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
The two free images are fine. I'm not concerned by the fair-use one: it is a single frame comprising only one-twentyfifth of a second of running time, and it does illustrate the genre. DrKiernan (talk) 14:22, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
FARC commentary
- Suggested FA criteria concern are citations, and diversity thereof (Miller is the author of Garland). Also note the recent change to WP:WIAFA (1c) requiring "high-quality" sources. YellowMonkey (cricket calendar poll!) 05:10, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Hrafnkels saga
Review commentary
- Notification of all relevant parties complete: Nominator and main contributor User:Haukurth, WikiProject Books, WikiProject Iceland, WikiProject Norse history and culture
1(c) - currently no inline citations. It could be accurate but harder to verify and inline citations are now part of criteria. (Background:It was promoted 4 years ago and has not been reviewed since.) Tom B (talk) 13:42, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I wrote it, and you're right that it isn't in the current Misplaced Pages style. I honestly don't really care that it doesn't have footnotes - it cites its sources very carefully, even if it's not to page numbers. Having those numbers would probably not make a lick of difference to your ability to 'verify' the accuracy of the article since you presumably don't understand Icelandic to begin with.
- Anyway, I'm fine with the article being demoted - I've learned a lot since I wrote it and I now think it's deficient in several ways (Misplaced Pages citation style being the least of these concerns). Haukur (talk) 15:31, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Comet
Review commentary
FA from 2004, referencing/1c issues, lede needs work, copyediting needed throughout, lots of skimpy subsections with only a few sentences, lots of bullet points that don't look that great. Article was a promotion under the old FA "refreshing brilliant prose" system. Cirt (talk) 12:10, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
- Notified: User talk:Bryan Derksen, User talk:TUF-KAT, User talk:Kingturtle, User talk:Gentgeen, User talk:Stewartadcock, User talk:Robogun, User talk:Cimon Avaro, Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Astronomy, Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Astronomical objects, Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Solar System. Cirt (talk) 12:16, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
- Images
- I'd cut File:W-preview.jpg; it's unnecessary to have a copyrighted image when there are free-use ones available. Also, I don't see where the author has given permission for its use.
- The animation of the comet orbiting the sun (File:Comet tails.gif) should slow down when its away from the sun and speed up when near the sun, also the size of the tail should depend on the proximity to the star.
- No sources for File:Comet wild 2.jpg or File:Comet borrelly.jpg (the uploader is banned).
- For images that are generated by commercial software, like File:Comet 2006 VZ13 linear orbital element example.jpg, should we use {{non-free software screenshot}}? DrKiernan (talk) 14:16, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
- Alright, I went through the references and made them all nice and tidy. Some of them I removed and replaced with {{cn}} tags, as they were dead links or page no one could access. Some others did not support the sentences they were attached to, etc... Now we can work on reffing what needs to be reffed, style issues, etc... Headbomb {κοντριβς – WP Physics} 04:10, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
There are still a number of citation issues, for example the claim that comets are balls of tar is certainly astonishing to me. DrKiernan (talk) 13:40, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- As dark as tar, not tar.Headbomb {κοντριβς – WP Physics} 04:55, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
