Zaki al-Arsuzi was nominated as a History good article, but it did not meet the good article criteria at the time (January 26, 2012). There are suggestions on the review page for improving the article. If you can improve it, please do; it may then be renominated. |

Why is Hanna Battatu, a known Iraqi nationalist historian nearly the sole source on a Syrian figure? It is certain that he would want to play up the role of Michel Aflaq, who lived in Iraq most of his later life, than give credit to a major figure in the Syrian Ba'ath, this article gives no credit to Zaki al-Arsuzi at all, it is almost entirely in the point of view that al-Arsuzi neither helped found the Ba'ath, nor contributed anything at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.183.91.215 ( talk) 06:25, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
I have not gone through the whole article in detail yet, but one part of the legacy section needs to be clarified: There were several ba'athists who denounced Aflaq as a "thief"; these critics claim that Aflaq had stolen the ba'athist ideology from al-Arsuzi and proclaimed it as his own. Who are these "several ba'athists who denounced Aflaq"? -- Al Ameer son ( talk) 18:54, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
There are a lot of incorrect ISBNs in this article. Has someone made them up? Mr Stephen ( talk) 12:38, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

This article is well on its way to becoming a Good Article. Indeed, I could not find anything on which to fail this article, and so it will pass. However, before I do pass it, I would like to see if we couldn't get the article to a strong-GA/potential-FA quality:

It is with great regret that I am forced to fail this article. This is being done under criterion 2, sub-criteria (b) and (c). Unfortunately the divergence between what the sources cited say and what the article text said was simply too great in the passage I looked at. Whilst good articles can include uncited material, I feel it would be wrong to pass an article that included uncited material that appeared cited in this regard. Therefore I feel I must fail this article. I appreciate that TIAYN is an established editor - I am not suggesting that the errors were intentional - but that it was a deviance that I couldn't let by.
If there was now an active process of trimming back the prose to keep to the facts outlined by the sources (not their exacting wording, mind), I think the article would pass GA easily. I invited the nominator or others to perform such a process in his or her own time, and I would be more than happy to rereview the article and pass it on those grounds. In the meantime, I can be contacted on my user talk page. Many thanks, - Jarry1250 Deliberation needed 18:18, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
