GA
This article needs a much longer lead section for one, second the refs need to be more fully formatted with full bibliographic info including publisher, author, accessdate for websites etc. Also, the aftermath section is quite short, so it might need merging or expanding. Also see WP:MoS, "See also" comes before "References". The Dominator (talk) 20:41, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- The problem is that there are not much information for better lead section. ≈Tulkolahten≈≈talk≈ 21:19, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- I'm nowhere near being an expert on the subject, but I'll attempt to construct a more comprehensive lead based on the information already in the article. The Dominator (talk) 23:17, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- This might be the good source [1]. ≈Tulkolahten≈≈talk≈ 23:41, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Why aren't any of the "Further reading" books being used as sources? Are some of them partially available on Google Books? And about the external links, I don't think it's a good idea to have them all in Czech, maybe one or two if they're really interesting and useful, but I think the links should generally be in English.

GA fail
This article has failed it's GA review and the following improvements need to made in order for it to be reconsidered:
- The section on Operation Anthropoid needs to be better summarized per Wikipedia:Summary style. For example, who was Heydrich? How did the members of Out Distance get involved?
- Please explain how the Munich agreement ended his army career.
- His fiancée is not mentioned until the quote from her, when did they get engaged? Why did she have to burn the correspondence?
- How did he commit suicide?
- A suggestion: it would be better if honors and dedications was in a table with date, honor and the reason why it was awarded - for example why was he only promoted in 2002 to Colonel? DId it mark an anniversary of some kind?
- References are needed where {{fact}} templates have been placed
- The quote from Opálka does not really fit into that section, is long and doesn't seem to add anything of note to the article.
If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it have it reassessed. Thank you for your work so far. Million_Moments (talk) 14:06, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
