See also is for more than just things in the same category

[edit]

Thebiguglyalien reverted my addition of Patriarchy to the See also list, commenting that patriarchy is not a form of government. I'm not going to fight this right now, but wanted to at least go on the record that this is a made-up limit on the See also section, which can include any page which is relevant enough. (And of course patriarchy is highly relevant to autocracy.) John_Abbe (talk) 17:05, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are thousands of things relevant to autocracy, and I'd hardly consider patriarchy to be in the top one hundred, let alone prominent enough to be in the article's "see also" section. The section should be reserved for the most pertinent links. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 17:14, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm going to be doing this review as part of the July GA backlog drive. It should take me no longer than a week. 22:01, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]


@Thebiguglyalien:: Overall, I could find very little to be addressed in the article. Please see my suggestions below and consider implementing them when you have a chance. Kimikel (talk) 00:33, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kimikel, I've made the changes that you suggested. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 17:28, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Thebiguglyalien I read through the article again and could not find anything amiss. Thank you for making this a super easy review, and for quickly implementing my suggestions. I appreciate your work, congratulations on another good article! Kimikel (talk) 23:08, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well-written

[edit]
  • Every issue in the past review has been addressed.

Modern era

[edit]
  • "The decline in autocracy across Western Europe..." > This paragraph would make more sense if you flipped the next two sentences, as it starts by saying that it affected other areas of the world, and then says that it was resisted or ineffective.
  • In terms of prose, that was the only suggestion I had.

Verifiable

[edit]

Spot check:

[edit]
  1. 20: Verified
  2. 25: Verified, though I would clarify that this is historically true, in spite of the spread of democracy in the 20th century, which is a caveat the author himself makes.
  3. 48: Verified
  4. 59: Verified
  5. 65: Verified
  6. 66: Verified, though author is listed as Edward J. Shultz

Broad

[edit]
  • Broad in its coverage

Neutral

[edit]
  • No issues with neutrality

Images

[edit]
  • No issues with images

Stable

[edit]
