Composer project review

I've reviewed this article as part of the Composers project review of its B-class articles. This article is B-class; it could as suitable image, a complete works list, and inline citations. My full review is on the comments page; questions and comments should be left here or on my talk page. Magic♪piano 15:11, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There is no image that can be added except perhaps for one of his pieces. A works list would be nice to have. A good article, regardless of what the GA criteria says. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 15:33, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

;Composers Project Assessment of Andreas de Florentia: 2024-12-16

This is an assessment of article Andreas de Florentia by a member of the Composers project, according to its assessment criteria. This review was done by Magicpiano.

If an article is well-cited, the reviewer is assuming that the article reflects reasonably current scholarship, and deficiencies in the historical record that are documented in a particular area will be appropriately scored. If insufficient inline citations are present, the reviewer will assume that deficiencies in that area may be cured, and that area may be scored down.

Adherence to overall Wikipedia standards (WP:MOS, WP:WIAGA, WP:WIAFA) are the reviewer's opinion, and are not a substitute for the Wikipedia's processes for awarding Good Article or Featured Article status.

Origins/family background/studies

Does the article reflect what is known about the composer's background and childhood? If s/he received musical training as a child, who from, is the experience and nature of the early teachers' influences described?

ok

Early career

Does the article indicate when s/he started composing, discuss early style, success/failure? Are other pedagogic and personal influences from this time on his/her music discussed?

ok, but how much wine did they drink? :)

Mature career

Does the article discuss his/her adult life and composition history? Are other pedagogic and personal influences from this time on his/her music discussed?

ok

List(s) of works

Are lists of the composer's works in WP, linked from this article? If there are special catalogs (e.g. Köchel for Mozart, Hoboken for Haydn), are they used? If the composer has written more than 20-30 works, any exhaustive listing should be placed in a separate article.

Works are counted and categorized but not enumerated.

Critical appreciation

Does the article discuss his/her style, reception by critics and the public (both during his/her life, and over time)?

ok

Illustrations and sound clips

Does the article contain images of its subject, birthplace, gravesite or other memorials, important residences, manuscript pages, museums, etc? Does it contain samples of the composer's work (as composer and/or performer, if appropriate)? (Note that since many 20th-century works are copyrighted, it may not be possible to acquire more than brief fair use samples of those works, but efforts should be made to do so.) If an article is of high enough quality, do its images and media comply with image use policy and non-free content policy? (Adherence to these is needed for Good Article or Featured Article consideration, and is apparently a common reason for nominations being quick-failed.)

No images or sound.

References, sources and bibliography

Does the article contain a suitable number of references? Does it contain sufficient inline citations? (For an article to pass Good Article nomination, every paragraph possibly excepting those in the lead, and every direct quotation, should have at least one footnote.) If appropriate, does it include Further Reading or Bibliography beyond the cited references?

Article has references; no inline citations.

Structure and compliance with WP:MOS

Does the article comply with Wikipedia style and layout guidelines, especially WP:MOS, WP:LEAD, WP:LAYOUT, and possibly WP:SIZE? (Article length is not generally significant, although Featured Articles Candidates may be questioned for excessive length.)

ok

Things that may be necessary to pass a Good Article review

Summary

This is a nice brief biography. Some sort of image (perhaps of one of the monasteries if they've survived?) would be nice, as would a works list and citations. Article is B-class. Magic♪piano 15:09, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
