Swissair

There was a cleanup tag: {{Cleanup|reason=The supposed company sponsoring one of the athletes, Swissair, ceased to exist 2002. Maybe it was [[Swiss_International_Air_Lines|Swiss]] (can't find any info on that)?|date=August 2018}} While our article Swissair says it ceased in 2002, the article's claim is supported by the reference which is the New York Times. I removed the cleanup tag based on the reference. RJFJR (talk) 13:48, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rate Attribute Review Comment
1. Well-written:
1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct. Some minor issues.
1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation. Everything is okay in this criterion.
2. Verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check:
2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline. Looks okay.
2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
2c. it contains no original research.
2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.
3. Broad in its coverage:
3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic. Some minor issues.
3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each. Seems okay.
5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute. No major reverts.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content. The images are rightly tagged and proper.
6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions. All the images are relevant to the topic.
7. Overall assessment. Good enough for GA, passing.

Background

  • The source also mentions that India also participated in the 1924 Winter. Alpinism was not contested as an event in the Chamonix Winter Games, which was recognized by IOC later as the first Winter Games. Medals for alpinism were given to the members of the unsuccessful 1922 British Mount Everest expedition which included seven Indian Sherpas (listed by the source) and a Nepalese, who died during the ascent. As the medalists were from various nationalities (Britain/India/Nepal), it is officially credited to mixed team by the IOC and not credited to India. Will add it as a note if required.
  • Source 6 includes more information and reception about Gupta. Have expanded the section. checkY
  • the athletes required aid from various private sponsors including uniforms donated by Indo-Canadians add 'the' before Indo-Canadians, who from the Indo-Canadians? Expanded. checkY
  • Say that source 7 needs registration.#7 is NYT source. It is fully accessible and does not need registration. (May be it is country specific from where you are trying to access). It also has an archived link, which has the same text. Do not see any issues with it.

Competitors

  • Why is there a &ndash here? The &ndash is clearly shown. checkY
  • Three Indian athletes competed in the event Add 'including' after the sentence. As a dash has been introduced, I guess this is not necessary as it lists the only three athletes participating.
