GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b ( MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c ( OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

  • "In 1980, Blancornelas and co-founded the weekly magazine Zeta." - and who?
  • "Their courageous example in the face of adversity – and the murder of 48 journalists – is said to be inspirational.[33]" - the underlined is weasily. Suggest rewording. -- Tomcat ( 7) 20:40, 18 October 2012 (UTC) reply
I believe I've fixed these. In both instances, the sentences appeared to me simply extraneous: one an accidental redundancy, the second an expendable mention of Blancornelas's inspirational qualities. If ComputerJA disagrees, though, I'm fine with some form of them going back in. Khazar2 ( talk) 22:03, 18 October 2012 (UTC) reply
