This peer review discussion has been closed.

I've listed this article for peer review becauuse I want to know how to improve the article so I can nominate it for a GA review. I don't know if it's ready yet.

Brief comments from Nikkimaria
  • Be consistent in whether you use British or American spellings - for example, you use both "grey" and "gray". See WP:ENGVAR. Done
  • It's generally good practice to avoid image galleries where possible - see WP:Galleries  Done
  • File:Pallas_Peter_Simon_1741-1811.png: source?  Done
  • The article is in need of some copy-editing - you might consider asking WP:GOCE to take a look  Done By SuperHamster
  • WP:OVERLINK - don't link very common terms, and don't link the same terms more than once, particularly not in close proximity  Done
  • Should provide conversions of metric measurements to imperial - you can use {{convert}} for this purpose  Done
  • Generally speaking, bulleted lists should be written out as prose  Done
  • References should be more complete: book citations need authors, dates, titles, publishers, and page numbers, web citations need publishers and retrieval dates, etc. See WP:CITE  Done

This is a good start, but the article needs some additional work before going for GA status. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:34, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
