Checking against GA criteria

To uphold the quality of Wikipedia:Good articles, all articles listed as Good articles are being reviewed against the GA criteria as part of the GA project quality task force. While all the hard work that has gone into this article is appreciated, unfortunately, as of March 3, 2010, this article fails to satisfy the criteria, as detailed below. For that reason, the article has been delisted from WP:GA. However, if improvements are made bringing the article up to standards, the article may be nominated at WP:GAN. If you feel this decision has been made in error, you may seek remediation at WP:GAR.

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
On 4 December 2008, Undercover.com reported that a Bon Scott movie was in the works. Direct linking to html in articles is deprecated in the WP:MOS. Just place the magazine title in italics.

Posthumous events: Please consolidate sentences into paragraphs as per MoS.

Death: The coroner had no such doubts based on the medical facts. - hardly encyclopaedic language - also needs citing.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Three links repaired and three dead links tagged using WP:CHECKLINKS

Existing references appear reliable.

I have added citation needed tags where statements need supporting.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
OK on hold for seven days for above issues to be addressed. Major contributors and projects will be notified. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:12, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing has been done to address these concerns in seven days, so I am de-listing this now. The article can be nominated at WP:GAN when it is back in good shape. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:06, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
