Result: Closing as keep: initial objections to GA status have now been addressed and retracted. UndercoverClassicist ^T·C 10:25, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is uncited text in the article, including entire paragraphs and the "Portrayals in media" section. There are also lots of large block quotes of secondary sources which should be summarised and used as prose instead. Z1720 (talk) 13:16, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I don't think this meets the GA standards at the moment, but it's not the worst that I've seen. I think all the (remaining?) block quotes are quotations from primary documents (though they are quoted in secondary sources), which is generally forgivable (it's a textbook FUR when they are quotations of or about the article's subject) if not necessarily best practice. Most of the uncited material is short paragraphs, which makes me wonder if they are simply meant to be covered by the citation of the following paragraph? If anybody does want to pick this up, I don't expect it would be a huge job. UndercoverClassicist ^T·C 21:56, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delist~~ @Chiswick Chap: fixed some of the block quotes, but the article still has lots of uncited prose. Z1720 (talk) 16:28, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. As UndercoverClassicist says, very little wrong here, I think. I've paraphrased some (more) blockquotes, cleared the cn items, and added a ref or two. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:03, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Uncited statements have been resolved. No further concerns. Z1720 (talk) 17:09, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
