Rwandan Civil War[edit]

I've been working on this article on and off for a few years now, and finally I think it's ready to begin the formal article promotion processes. The end goal I'm hoping to reach is an FAC, although if people here think that the article is still far short of that, then I'd be happy to go for a GA nomination as well. Basically, any and all feedback welcome.

  • Suggest scaling up the lead map, either within the infobox or outside it if need be
    OK. I'd really like to find a new infobox image, as the map of Rwandan road network is really not particularly revelevant to this subject. Unfortunately there seems to be an almost complete lack of free images pertaining to the civil war (as opposed to the genocide). I'll keep searching, and if I can't find anything then I'll scale up the current one.  — Amakuru (talk) 10:18, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually suggest scaling up the other maps as well
    OK, I'll look into these.  — Amakuru (talk) 10:18, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Associated Press belongs in |agency=, BBC News in |publisher= or |work= depending on desired format. Check for other non-authors in |author=
    The current format is how I've always cited when I write articles - where there is no discernible human author, I use the organisation as the author. This was not a problem in FAs Rwanda and Paul Kagame.  — Amakuru (talk) 10:18, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Check for ENGVAR consistency - it's mostly British but then you've got things like "reorganization". Nikkimaria (talk) 16:33, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    OK, I've changed all to -ise form. Actually, -ize is legitimate British English, (for example in the Oxford dictionary) but it wasn't being used consistently, so best to settle on -ise.  — Amakuru (talk) 10:18, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
