I shall be reviewing this article against the Good Article criteria, following its nomination for Good Article status.

Disambiguations: Two found, but I cannot resolve; Chau Thanh could be any one of nine possible districts with articles, Bình Mỹ could be either of two. Jezhotwells ( talk) 22:41, 1 March 2011 (UTC) reply

Linkrot: none found. Jezhotwells ( talk) 22:43, 1 March 2011 (UTC) reply

Checking against GA criteria

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b ( MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    I made a number of minor copy-edits. [1] Otherwise well organized and written.
    ''...to protect the important sea transportation routes which stretched from North Vietnam to the Mekong Delta region Do you mean "river" or "water" as I find it unlikely that the Viet Cong used long transits via the South China sea to reach the Mekong delta?
  1. OK, I think that will do.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c ( OR):
    I assume good faith for off-line sources. It would be good to provide ISBNs, where available, but not a GA requirement.
    * I have fixed the references with a reference template, and added ISBN's wherever I could. Canpark ( talk) 07:40, 2 March 2011 (UTC) reply
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    Focussed and thorough
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
    NPOV
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    Suitable FUR and captions and licenses.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    On Hold for seven days for above issues to be addressed. Jezhotwells ( talk) 23:07, 1 March 2011 (UTC) reply
