Current status: Good article

Excellent article. Very informative.

I'd just be careful with the Allegations of Simony section - it's NPOV leaning towards not exactly neutral - that's all. Cheers, Corvus coronoides 23:58, 21 June 2007 (UTC) reply

The top image needs a fair use rationale. Epbr123 00:07, 22 June 2007 (UTC) reply

It's used in all the conclave articles. I'll add one that applies to all of them. Savidan 00:23, 22 June 2007 (UTC) reply

This discussion is transcluded from Talk:Papal conclave, 1492/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.

This article has undergone a reassessment as part of the GA sweeps performed by the Good Article Project Quality taskforce in order to ensure that it still meets the requirements for Good Article status.

Overall, this article is quite good. There are just a few small things that I would like to see:

1. The lead needs to be expanded to summarize the full article.
2. It would really help to explain a few terms briefly the first time they are used: "simony", "published", "promulgated a bull".
3. "Carvajal, a Spaniard and the ambassador to Ferdinand and Isabella, as well as Gonzalo Fernandez de Heredia, and Iberian and archbishop of Tarragona in charge of security, were probably chosen by Borja in his capacity as Dean." - I read this sentence three times and am still confused.
4. The website in the "Notes" section needs an access date.
5. Is it considered standard in this sort of article to not source the information in the tables (I generally prefer thorough referencing, but this might be considered material that is not contentious)? I noticed that, in at least one Papal election GA that has passed its reassessment ( Papal election, 1268–1271), citations are given in the tables for "Nationality", "Order and title", and "Elevated". Is it possible to do the same here?
