GA Review[edit]

Reviewer: Carbrera (talk · contribs) 01:44, 31 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am Carbrera, and I'll be reviewing this article for possible good article submission.

Full review coming very soon. Carbrera (talk) 01:44, 31 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox[edit]

Please provide an alternative description "alt" for the image of the band included
You don't have to include a list for the past members, considering there is only one; please remove the bullet point

Lead[edit]

The correct form of verb in this sentence is actually "is", not "are"
Add "that" after "band from London,"
Who are they considered to be one of the last bands of the DIY era by? Please clarify here to prevent confusion
It's good that you include the information about comparisons here, but it should also be included below
This section could easily warrant a second paragraph listing the group's accomplishments, releases, and awards (in any) here; please expand

History[edit]

1981-86: Formation and Last Chance Saloon[edit]

Paragraph 1[edit]

No comma is necessary after "Hamburger Boy"
Is the mention of The Colors Out of Time necessary since there is no article for it; if you find it necessary, please add a link to it so a future article may be warranted
"Paul Johnston, came along to..." → "Paul Johnston joined them to..."

Paragraph 2[edit]

This entire paragraph should be moved to the end of the first paragraph as it deals with what paragraph one is talking about

Paragraph 3[edit]

I know what you mean, but you should clarify on what "four-piece" means
If Warehouse Sound / Enshrined in a Memory is a single, it should be in quotation marks, not in italics
Expand on "underground acclaim"

Paragraph 4[edit]

This paragraph is good

2010-present: Rerelease and Beyond Moth and Rust[edit]

Paragraph 1[edit]

"downloadable package" → "digital download"
The rest of this entire section is quite good

Influence[edit]

I believe this section should be retitled, perhaps something similar to "Influence and legacy"
This section could be greatly expanded, could it?

Members[edit]

Good! :)

Discography[edit]

I would recommend creating articles for these albums; yes I know it's by far not required, but it would be beneficial to both you and Wikipedia! :)
Include ";Studio albums" before listing them; but remove the quotation marks that I included in this example

References[edit]

The reflist should be 'reflist|30em', not just 'reflist'

External links[edit]

I don't see the need for the link to Gymnasium Records' Discogs page; remove, or explain why it should be included

End of GA Review:[edit]

This article needs quite a bit of expansion. I'm worried that this article isn't near being GA quality yet. I'm a bit worried about the notability of this subject, considering the minimal sources included in the article. If some expansion can be accomplished, I will definitely re-review the article, but as of now, some works needs to occur. Thank you. Carbrera (talk) 00:46, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am still relatively concerned with the notability of this subject; two days are left for changes to be made to this article. Thank you. Carbrera (talk) 01:29, 6 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Seven days have passed and I have noticed that the nominator hasn't edited for a few months; I'm afraid I'm going to fail this article. However, feel free to make the changes mentioned here and renominate it when you get the chance. Thank you! Carbrera (talk) 01:22, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
