{{GATable/item|1a|Yes|This article is well written.

}}

{{GATable/item|1b|Yes|I would like to see a use of sources in the lead section, as while many of the points are sourced later on the lead should be sorted as the rest of the article, it currently contains no sources, although this is not a requirement to be given good article status. The other criteria are met to a sufficient standard.

The standard for the lead section referencing is different from the body of the article; as MOS:LEAD, one of the "well-written" criteria, concludes: {{tq|The presence of citations in the introduction is neither required in every article nor prohibited in any article.}} Basically, if there are any points in the lead section that you believe are controversial or likely to be challenged or are a quote, then they should be sourced per the MOS:LEADCITE subsection, and you should note what they are so the nominator can add sources; if not, then the lead section can in fact be entirely free of citations and still meet the full GA criteria.

:Thank you for this, the way I had read it had placed greater focus on the prior paragraph, I feel that this article would still benefit from citations in the lead section, I have accordingly amended my initial review.AlastairJHannaford (talk) 10:15, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
