Progression[edit]

• Version of the article when originally reviewed: [1]
• Version of the article when review was closed: [2]

Technical review[edit]

• Citations: The Citation Check tool reveals no errors (no action required).
• Disambiguations: no dab links [3] (no action required).
• Linkrot: External links all check out [4] (no action required).
• Alt text: image of Chamberlin lacks alt text so you might consider adding it [5] (suggestion only).  Done
• Copyright violations: The Earwig Tool is currently not working so will AGF (no action required).

Criteria[edit]

• It is reasonably well written.

  a (prose): b (MoS):

  • There may be a word missing here: "overseeing execution of MacArthur's major operations, including the New Guinea, Philippines and Borneo campaigns." Might this be "overseeing the execution of MacArthur's major operations, including the New Guinea, Philippines and Borneo campaigns"?  Done
  • Some issue with capitalisation of ranks. In a few cases you have these capitalised, contrary to Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(capital_letters)#Military_terms. Examples:
    • "Stephen Jones Chamberlin was a Lieutenant General in the United States Army", this should be "Stephen Jones Chamberlin was a lieutenant general in the United States Army."  Done
    • "Chamberlin was commissioned a Second Lieutenant in...", should be "Chamberlin was commissioned a second lieutenant in..."  Done
    • "He was promoted to First Lieutenant on 1 July 1916...", which should be "He was promoted to first lieutenant on 1 July 1916..."  Done
  • Perhaps wikilink Adjutant and quartermaster?  Done
  • "married General Shank's daughter, Sarah Chapman", this should just be "married Shank's daughter, Sarah Chapman" removing rank after formal introduction per WP:SURNAME.  Done
  • Is the capitalisation correct here: "assistant chief of the Construction Branch"? Specifically should it be "Assistant Chief of the Construction Branch"? Please check this.
  • Possible missing word here, as per my above comments: "Chamberlin was responsible for planning and overseeing execution of MacArthur's major operations, including the New Guinea, Philippines and Borneo campaigns." Specifically should this be "and overseeing the execution"?  Done

• It is factually accurate and verifiable.

  a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

  • Sufficient referencing and use of WP:RS in my opinion.
  • Citations all follow a consistent style.

• It is broad in its coverage.

  a (major aspects): b (focused):

  • I'm not an expert on the subject, however it seems to cover all major aspects of Chamberlin's life and his career as far as I can tell.

• It follows the neutral point of view policy.

  a (fair representation): b (all significant views):

  • Yes, this seems fine to me.

• It is stable.

  No edit wars etc.:

  • No issues here.

• It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic.

  a (tagged and captioned): b (Is illustrated with appropriate images): c (non-free images have fair use rationales): d public domain pictures appropriately demonstrate why they are public domain':

  • The image used appears to be PD and seems appropriate for the article.

• Overall:

  a Pass/Fail:

  • Only a couple of minor issues with prose and MOS listed above to be dealt with or discussed. Otherwise this article seems solid to me. Anotherclown (talk) 06:05, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
