There is uncited prose throughout the article. The article has too many small sections, some of which are only a sentence long. This doesn't follow criteria 2 regarding the article layout. (MOS:PARA) I also do not think the article meets WP:NPOV. It seems like this article is written to highlight the politician's adherance to popular Democratic policies in 2025. I think most of the prose about their political career needs to be removed, while his most important initiatives (not just votes on issues) are highlighted. Z1720 (talk) 15:26, 7 March 2025 (UTC)
- This does stink of editors seeing news articles and adding quick 1 sentence mentions in an unorganized form, resulting in the plethora of small sections. Part of the GA criteria is organization, as Z1720 describes in the nomination. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 17:46, 13 March 2025 (UTC)
- Fail I agree with Z1720. Highlighting important initiatives should be done more neutrally than the current article does. Ex. Stating that “McGovern is known as a leading voice on ending hunger and food insecurity” with only one source violates criterion 2 and 4. McGovern might well be a leading voice on the matter, but one source cannot verify this potentially contentious claim. Compass128 (talk) 19:07, 30 March 2025 (UTC)
