GA tips

Hi Oh-Fortuna!,

I saw this article on the list of open GAN requests. While I cannot take it on, I do have two quick tips:

  • Criterion 2b requires that all material be supported by inline citations no later than the end of the paragraph. The presence of paragraphs that do not end with a citation can be grounds for a quick-fail.
  • There is probably room for improvement to the lead. It might be worth reviewing WP:LEAD and thinking it over a little bit. (Oh, and as you'll see in the documentation, the lead is one of the few exceptions to normal citation requirements: the body itself is the source.)

:@Patrick Welsh, what a lovely note, thank you. At your suggestion I read WP:LEAD carefully and made some good changes. I'll keep working on the citations this evening. Your comment is so heartening... Oh-Fortuna! (talk) 00:13, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
