[edit] Good Article Nomination

I liked the article because it was concise, yet thorough. Can you provide a bit more context in the lead, perhaps a second paragraph, to summarize the Dirty War. When did it start and edit? What was it about? Who was involved? I'd like a little general information so I can better understand the article.

The references are good. Are there any external links that might be added? Can you add a See Also section that points to other, related articles for those who want more information?

Thank you for this. I'll check back in a few days. Jehochman (^Talk/_Contrib) 05:43, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

I just added a second paragraph in the lead giving background and involved people in the "Dirty War", also I added a see also section and an EL section. If anything else is needed to put on, please ask. Thanks! Wooyi^{Talk, Editor review} 20:33, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Passed. I think the reference 1 could be improved. Perhaps it would be better to substitute an appropriate reference from the Night of the pencils article. We should use the most reliable reference available. Jehochman (^Talk/_Contrib) 04:40, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

I agree. The only problem is that the references in Night of the pencils are mostly in paper and it's hard to actually find these books (my local library's books are scarce, honestly). But I'll probably look for more reliable sources for ref 1. Thank you for passing it and the advices! Wooyi^{Talk, Editor review} 02:43, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA comment

The poster needs a fair use rationale to keep its GA. --Nehrams2020 04:41, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

I believe there is a fair use rationale listed on the image page. Am I mistaken? Jehochman (^Talk/_Contrib) 04:47, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Not for Image:Etchecolatz.jpg, it has a summary and a license but no fair use rationale. Look at WP:Fair Use or examples of fair use on Image:Brotherfromanotherplanet.jpg, Image:Mcveighmugshot.jpg, or Image:Bluesbrotherssoundtrack.jpg. The image shouldn't use a fair use rationale exactly like the images here, but could take some points that are relevant to the poster in this article. All images that have licenses requiring fair use need a fair use rationale or the article will be failed. Just wanted to let you know for future use. Look to other GAs for examples and let me know if you have any questions. --Nehrams2020 05:05, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for that. For expediency, I've added the fair use rationale. Can you check that and let me know whether that works? Jehochman (^Talk/_Contrib) 06:04, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

That's probably good, but if possibly continue to add a few more points. When images lack sources, fair use rationales, or licenses, they can be deleted. In the future make sure to have all of these. --Nehrams2020 07:03, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
