GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    Article is of decent size. A third lead paragraph could be added, although not required. Since this article is about the effects of Yagi in Vietnam, the dates should be formatted as Day/Month/Year, instead of Month/Day/Year. Not sure why the main article uses the MDY format.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable, as shown by a source spot-check.
    a (reference section): b (inline citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
    See below.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    I saw no major issues, seems to address everything about Yagi's effects adequately.
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
    I didn't see any weasel words at a glance, so good here.
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
    No recent edit wars, so easy pass.
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have non-free use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    A few things here. A "{{clear}}" template should be added at the end of the "Background" section, so that the infobox isn't pushing on the image below. File:Yagi_2024_path.png is causing text sandwiching with the text between it and the infobox, so the path image should be removed (feel free to get a second opinion on this, though). More sandwiching is going on between File:Yagi_2024-09-04_0515Z.jpg and File:NOAA_CPC_Global_Tropics_Hazards_Outlook_082724.png, one should be removed (I'd personally remove the hurricane image, as there is already one in the infobox).
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

Ref spotcheck

Hi! I'm not the nominator, but I'm also a significant contributor to the article, so I'll make some of the edits suggested here. Is the DMY format really required for this article, or just a suggestion? I'm asking that since there are many references where I've manually entered MDY into the citation templates (because at the time I didn't know I can just type in YYYY-MM-DD and it would automatically format the date based on the "Use xxx dates" template on the top), so there's going to be lots of work if it's to be changed into DMY as a requirement wolf20482 🐺 (talk) 03:56, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
For now, I've reformatted the references as suggested. For [19], I replaced it with a source from France24, which also effectively supports the statement. For [94] and [98], I don't think they should be merged, because they're different articles, one supporting the 7.065 trillion VND economic damages and one supporting the specific transportation and agricultural losses. There are definitely other ways to format that, but I'm just going to stick to that for now.
For the background section, I added the "clear" template at the end of it, but it doesn't seem to be doing much. For other image related issues, I haven't made any edits yet since I feel this still needs a second opinion (including from the nominator) wolf20482 🐺 (talk) 04:21, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
