Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. | ||||||||||

The map does not show up-to-date information. At least visa-free visits to Brazil is now granted. —Preceding

Also the map does not have a legend -- what do the various colours mean? -- Gentleman wiki ( talk) 19:08, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
I assessed the Good article criteria as follows:
1. It is not well-written enough. The prose is awkward in numerous places. For example, under the "Eligibility and Application section": "See also who is eligible for a Hong Kong SAR passport [1]" There are others, but they are too numerous to mention.
2. There are not enough citations. Some things that could be challenged under the "History", "Usage and Restrictions", and "Consular Protection" sections are uncited. For example, under "Consular Protection": "However, it is not uncommon for PRC authorities overseas to offer consular assistance to PRC citizens of Hong Kong origin traveling on their British National (Overseas) passports." How do you know that it is "not uncommon"? Needs a citation.
3. Coverage is as broad as possible for an article about a passport.
4. It is sufficiently neutral.
5. Seems stable enough to pass.
6. Images all seem fine.
In sum, the article passes criteria 3-6, but I have to fail it because of the prose and citation problems.-- Danaman5 01:59, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
I remark the visa-free entry section has not include the United States, please note that. Narold 03:59, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
The essay is only a just-for-fun one and it is not a suitable source for the Wikipedia. BN(O) ( talk) 01:20, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
The history section has a section which details the judicial proceedings of Aziz Akbar Butt vs. Director of Immigration. The case was rather recent (2007) and should not be in the History section.
Also the final interpretation which states that the Director of Immigration was wrong in his policy is incorrect. Please review the official court documents and revise. [1] -- Ndora ( talk) 08:56, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
The sources gathered are inconsistent! I have asked travel agencies for HKSAR passport and they all said visa free for 30 days, please check in on consistent sources! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.202.252.163 ( talk) 18:00, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
Recently an accord between Hong Kong and Russia was signed which will give both nationals the right to visa-free travel once it comes into force. Please read the sources carefully, and you will discover that this has not taken place yet.
"The accord will come into force as soon as necessary internal procedures are complete, and after that nationals of Russia and Hong Kong on a mutual basis will be able to make visa-free visits of up to 14 days," the ministry said in a statement."
Therefore please do not add Russia to the visa-free list until the treaty takes effect, which will likely be some time during the summer. 19:30, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
This is such an article with such great potential - it is such a shame that the structure and language has left the article slightly repetitive and incomprehensible in certain areas. I am going to try to revamp this article! Bonus bon ( talk) 09:20, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
I reassessed this article to Mid importance, class remains the same at B. I added places where I felt needing more citation during my reading throughout the article. The lead paragraph could use further expansion, given the size of it, 3-4 paragraphs should be fairly decent size to summarize the highlight of the article. See WP:LEAD and WP:GA?

Propose merge of Physical features of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region passport into Hong Kong Special Administrative Region passport#Physical appearance. Reason: duplication of information, confusion of the different versions, comparisons could be all listed on one page. -- Funandtrvl ( talk) 22:04, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
