GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    I'm not sure if all the nowiki html tags and italics are necessary; it seems more likely that something was accidentally given one apostrophe instead of two at one point. How come they have been included? Also, it's a little odd stylistically for the 'ref name=' field to be filled with numbers, I would usually have a name relevant to the reference being cited.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

Mother Knows Best (song) → Mother Knows Best – The other "Mother Knows Best" on the dab page is a redirect for an episode of a Canadian TV series. As the other "Mother Knows Best" does not even have its own article, I believe that this song has the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The dab page can be removed and hatnotes can be used if users want to find the TV episode. Natg 19 (talk) 01:38, 7 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • I feel that the adages 'mother knows best'/'father knows best' are probably the primary topic people would search for, but we don't have a page discussing the phases and their usage at all. I'd support the move, unless someone makes a page about the phrase, in that case it should be moved back to Mother Knows Best (song). --Prosperosity (talk) 03:30, 7 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose User:Prosperosity User:Natg 19 the target has been a dab page since 13 June 2011‎. To that dab page I've just filled in the redlink to Mother Knows Best (1928 film), the first Fox talkie - which looks like the most referenced subject in Google Books.

  • Oppose the target is not a redirect, and per Prosperosity , this is not the primary topic either. -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 05:59, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
