Long, detailed, lots of pictures, excellent writing. It fits the criteria. User:Luigi30 (Υσηρ ταλκ ΛυηγηΛ) 00:49, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Object Please do not submit article without references, especially if they are about potentially controversial topics or public personalities. I will provide a more extensive review later. Phils 05:51, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Some works has to be done on governements : some ministers are referred as "Minister of State". A French governement is made of "Ministres d'Etat" (Minister of State), "Ministres" (Minister) and "Secrétaires d'Etat" (Secretary of State). The title of "Sous-Secrétaire d'Etat" (Sub-Secretary of State) has also been used (that's not very common but de Gaulle himself was one case). A "Ministre d'Etat" is in charge of something (for instance Justice) and will be referred as "Ministre d'Etat, Ministre de la Justice"). I noticed the same problem in several articles about French governements. Ericd 11:03, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. Agree with Phils. Please read the criteria before nominating. Also the lists at the end should probably be moved into sub articles. - Taxman 16:52, Apr 20, 2005 (UTC)
  • Object Though comprehensive, its got too many headings and too much text which may be moved to dedicated articles. I also am not sure if adding years in the headings is the right way to do so.  =Nichalp (talk · contribs)= 18:31, Apr 20, 2005 (UTC)
    • Too many headings ? Well 19, 14 for Richard Nixon, 10 for Bill Clinton and 19 for Winston Churchill. Ericd 13:38, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
      • Nixon's headings are good. Clinton's and Churchill's are overwhelming. Ignore the bibliography, external links and references.  =Nichalp (talk · contribs)= 19:23, Apr 21, 2005 (UTC)
      • Except that dates were used in the article about de Gaulle, a choice than can be disputed, it has more or less the same chronological structure than Nixon. Ericd 21:07, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. The majority of the images have no source nor copyright status information. -- Infrogmation 08:33, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment - I have added more links to other Wikipedias with the aid of this excellent tool. See my comments on Dorset, above. --194.73.130.132 14:27, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
