Peer review

Angelo Bolanachi

I've listed this article for peer review because I'd like to get this to GA-status, however I'd like to make sure I synthesized from my sources correctly and would like any research gaps to be addressed.

I can review this. Can you reply and let me know if you're still interested? Noleander (talk) 01:50, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

• Overall the article looks fine. It should be able go to thru GA process successfully ... of course, the reviewer will find some issues, but it looks like they are all things you can fix at that time. Here are a few I see:

• Confusing word "nationality" ... clarify citizenship vs ethnicity ... all while being a Greek national... and ... press blamed Bolanachi's Greek nationality as the reason ... Suggest avoid using word "nationality" because it is a bit ambigous. The reader will get confused over what his citizenship is. Try to use "citizenship" (Egyptian; then later Greek?) and "ethnicity" (always Greek) which are more precise words.

• Maybe add "citizenship" tag into InfoBox - If he changed citizenship during his life, consider adding a "| citizenship = " tag into the Infobox: you can list 2 countries, and include the date of change, so readers can grasp the timeline e.g. "| citizenship = Egyptian (until 1931), Greek (from 1931) "

• Author links: if any of the author's of the works listed in the "Sources" section or in the Citations section have WP articles, you should add an "author-link" tag into the cite/source, so the reader can click on the link and see the author's article. E.g. if Wassong, Stephan had a WP article, you'd add | author-link = Stephan Wassong. Of course, if none of the authors have WP articles, there is nothing to do about it.

• Citation formattting: Reviewers are always really picky about cite formatting. For the cites in the Sources section, it looks like the article is using the "citation" template {{ citation | title = ... }} That is okay, but can lead to minor errors (although it looks like you are using it okay in this article). Safer is to use a specific one of the following, depending on the kind of source material:

{{ cite web | title = ... }}

{{ cite book | title = ... }}

{{ cite journal| title = ... }}

{{ cite magazine | title = ... }}

This is easy: just replace "citation" with two words "cite journal" etc. The tags that follow are mostly all the same: "title", "date", "first" "last" etc. HOWEVER you will need one unique tag:

{{ cite web | title = ... }}

{{ cite book | title = ... }}

{{ cite journal| journal = ... | title = ... }}

{{ cite magazine | magazine= ... | title = ...}}

The reason do do the above is that the template software will automatically use the correct bold, & italics & punctuation, and will put things in the correct sequence

• It looks like all of the sources in the Sources section should use "cite journal"

• You are correctly using "access-date" tag in a couple of citations. You should also include "access-date" tag in the sources within the Sources section. The rule is : include "access-date" for all cites & sources that have a "url=" tag. The date you include is the date you viewed/read/downloaded the web site/PDF. Do not use today's date. Since all your sources in Sources section have "url=" tag, they should also have "access-date" tag.

• The "access-date" tag is important because WP has a bot that runs once a week and finds backup or "archive" version of the URL and stores the archive link in the cite, and so it is forever available to readers, even if the original URL disappears someday.

• Link or change word bourgeoise .. add link to WP aritcle, or replace with "upper class" or similar.

• Topic bars at bottom of article: there is no requirement that the article must include any topic bars. But if a good one can be found, it makes the article look nice and may help readers. A few that might work are :

 
{{African Games}}
{{Association of National Olympic Committees}} 
{{African Games Sports}}
{{Nations at the African Games}}
{{Africa topics}}
{{Multi-sport events}}

But I'm not sure any of them are a perfect fit for this article. I suggest you look at those, and if 1 or 2 of them seem appropriate & helpful to readers , then put them at the bottom of this article. It is okay to have zero, if none are useful.

• Clarify Bolanachi donated his collection to the... "his collection" could be better. maybe "his collection of sports memorabilia" or "some items" or "his sports memorabilia collection" etc.

• Image copyrights: look okay. Reviewers can be picky about that. You should always click on the image, then the "Details" button and verify that "free use" (i.e. expired copyright) information is there.

• Before nominating at GA, be sure to check article for spelling

• Before nominating at GA, study the GA requirements at WP:Good_article_criteria - that is the list of things that the reviewer will check

• Before GA: run article through a copyright violation tool https://copyvios.toolforge.org/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&title=Angelo+Bolanachi that will make sure there is no plagiarism

• When you nominate at GA, the reviewer will always find some issues, no matter how much work you do before. Just fix anything they suggest, and don't take it personally.

• When you nominate, it can take 1 to 3 months for someone to review it. If you are in a hurry, you can nominate at WP:Good_article_review_circles which is faster, but you can only nominate there after you have reviewed 5 GA nominations. If you don't want to do 5 reviews before your nomination, then nominate at the normal place:WP:Good_article_nominations/Instructions

• @Jordano53: Those are all the suggestions I can think of now. Good luck. Ping me if you have any questions about this things above. Noleander (talk) 16:01, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
