Southern United States[edit]

This article is well-written, with GA status and good standard of neutrality, even it is a sensitive subject. Wooyi 03:41, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Not nearly enough inline citations, as is illustrated with a template in one section, even. Some of the existing citations seem to be improperly done. I enjoy these geography articles, but this one is not well-cited by FA standards. JHMM13 07:28, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Needs more a lot more citations, less lists, bigger lead 2 or 3 paragraphs, has 3 citation needed tags, has a "This section does not cite its references or sources" tag, references are missing details such as author and publisher, problem with ref #17 - ^ Template error: argument title is required, white space and one sentence paragraphs.

Oppose lead is too short for starters. Quadzilla99 18:39, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
