Article title Remarks Evaluation
Dire Maul Fancruft
Butadiene chemdata supplement A template and no text. Non-article
William Roberts (physician) Stubby, over-formatted, not much text. Salvageable stub
Amt Neuhaus German location stub. One sentence and a fat template. Very short but informative

[edit] First round (20 March 2005) (late 2004)

  • Malachi York short biographical article about an "author of over 500 books dealing with subjects such as the origin of languages, religion, spirituality, ufology, new world order, freemasonry, black history, science, health, and the mind among many things". Topic of questionable notability, content probably biased, style needs work
  • Kusakabe short biographical article about a Japanese prince from the 7th century. Decent little article
  • HMS Berkeley Castle (K387) short article about a WW2 warship. Short but okay
  • Alcira stub about a city in Spain, from 1911 EB and almost unchanged. Probably outdated information, unencyclopedic style
  • Pkunk Not notable, fancruft.
  • The Scar, medium-sized article about a probably not-too-notable novelr. Mostly a plot summary. Could do with some formating and copyediting, probably bordering on fancruft. Cruftish tendencies, style needs work
  • Opcode short article about a technical term in computer programming. Language far too technical, definition very vague. Techspeak, low quality article
  • National Review (London) Fragmentary in every respect, insufficient definition. Non-article

  • British Antarctic Territory short geographical article, style and facts seem okay, but half of the text is about postage stamps. Unbalanced content, otherwise okay

  • Leila Shahid stub about a contemporary politician. Content and formating okay. Decent stub
  • Raven (comics)/Temp Subpage (leftover from rewrite?) Lengthy fanbabble. Not notable, fancruft
