[edit] GA Nom on hold
You should give inline citations and for the ones where you are using URLs, you should use the {{cite web}} template and record the date you viewed the site. See WP:CITE for details on how to source... plange 04:59, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] GA Status
It's been a week and while I don't agree with the original criticism, (Inline citation format isn't a strict requirement) the many, many, many citation needed tags do clearly make this article not well-referenced. Many of the requests may be frivolous with so many, but there's gotta be more sources for all this stuff. Homestarmy 17:31, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- I've added a line under references that cites the major source for the entire article. I also replaced all the html refs with the cite web template. MamaGeek (Talk/Contrib) 11:53, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] GA Failed
It seems that the image on this page is insufficiently tagged. Click the image and see the note in the fair use tag. This article could also be improved in some other ways:
- In-line citations would be a bonus.
- I have marked the last sentence "citation needed". Not only is a citation needed for the controversy, but also for the response that overpopulation may not be a problem after all. Preferably, the latter would cite not a generic article on overpopulation, but rather a published rebuttal to critics of the church's pro-reproduction stance.
- From the lead-in: "Mamma Rosa, was best known to Catholics as a model of holiness in the daily life of a Catholic family." Does the past-tense "was" refer to her lifetime? Was she well-known to Catholics during her life or only posthumously?
- The "early life" section has short, choppy paragraphs that could be made to flow more smoothly.
- The article does not strike me as one that meets the "compelling prose" requirement for a GA article. It gives basic factual information, but is not extraordinarily well-written. Perhaps it could use some tasty tidbits, interesting but brief quotations of primary sources, or quotations by PJPII and other church leaders concerning her importance to Catholics.
- Footnote 3 is repeated. It might be better to make the second reference footnote 4 and write "ibid." as the reference.

[edit] Creator of article
Hey, guys. I created this article one day on a whim. I'm not even Catholic, but I'm glad that it was nominated for GA. Although I hope it gets it at some point, I really have no interest in helping it along. Thanks, JHMM13 (T | C)
