WP:Japan Assessment Commentary[edit]

The article was assessed B-class, but narrowly. The information about their names as pseudonyms needs to be included in the Lead section. I'm a little surprised there's not even information on their birthdays. What is the stated need for anonymity? Age & high school? It all sounds pretty manufactured, but I suppose that speculation even from a "reliable source" would be inadmissible. Still, it would be impossible for two high school girls to attend a regular school, where they would be expected to attend club activities, and carry on a career to the extent this groups has. Last, most articles on musical groups include a section on "Critical reception". This article mentions chart rating and gold album, from which one can infer their popularity, but the article would benefit from critical quotes on style, sound, etc. Good luck.

  • the prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct; and

it complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.

    • I would argue that the lead should expanded to at least two paragraphs based on the body's size.
  • Verifiable with no original research:
  • all in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines;
    • There are some sentences like ""True Blue" is a cover of Zone's 2003 single." and "ClariS released their fourth studio album Fairy Castle on January 25, 2017." that need referencing.
  • Broad in its coverage:

it addresses the main aspects of the topic; and it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).

  • Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
  • Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
  • Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:

media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content; and media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.

    • Is the second image that important? I fail to see it's importance because the illustrator does not have his own article.

Other than that, I feel ClariS is in good shape to become a GA. I'll gladly pass it once these issues are solved.Tintor2 (talk) 20:58, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the late reply, but I suppose the second image is important, as it illustrates the time when ClariS' members consisted of Clara and Alice, as opposed to the current lineup of Clara and Karen. I'll try to address the other issues within the next few days. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 06:53, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've now sourced the two unsourced statements, and expanded the lead to include mentions of their live performances and their not showing their faces in public (arguably their trademark). Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:51, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

10th anniversary[edit]

I'd likely base this claim on obviousness, but the group's been there for 10 years; and thinking of members focusing on their high school studies as a reason of their choice of anonymity doesn't make sense these days. So I removed that claim on my recent update of this article... DJ Baguio (talk) 01:21, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Seems like someone revised my recent contribution and used a more reliable reference. But the format is still the same, still excluding the claim of "high school duties make them decide their anonymity"... DJ Baguio (talk) 01:28, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
