GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   Prose is above average. Layout complies with MOS. No spelling/grammar errors that I could see.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   Cites a wide variety of sources. There is some redundancy and inconsistent formatting in the citations, though.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   Article is fairly comprehensive. Ideally, it could be a little leaner, but there is no obviously unnecessary detail.

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

   Although the article goes into detail regarding the persecution of Falun Gong, this is no propaganda piece. Cites some skeptical sources regarding the more sensational claims.

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

   Some minor controversy in the edit history, but it was almost a month ago, and was handled respectfully and sanely by all parties concerned.

6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   Indeed a Good Article, although substantial improvement is required to bring it to FA status.
