GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    The Article is quite long (>75 KB), so please try to split it into reasonable subpages.  Not done
    Repeating the same cite over and over again is unecessary  Done Faizan (talk) 12:15, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    Inconsistency: Block 2 and Block II  Done
    Please use American or British English, not both.  Done
    Has a bunch of jargon that most readers don't understand (for example "fairing").  Doing...
    Lead and Infobox
    Citations are Unecessary in the lead and infobox  Done Faizan (talk) 10:46, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    Development section
    Dup link to Thomson-CSF  Done
    Link to fighter, bomber, Pakistan, and interceptor  Done
    Operational History section
    Should change title to Service History  Done
    Dup links to Rao Qamar Suleman and Nigeria  Done
    Design section
    Dup links to Head up display and multi-function displays  Done
    The JF-17 can be armed with up ...  Done
    Variants
    "Mach 2.0+" would do better as "over two times the speed of sound"  Done Faizan (talk) 10:02, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    Has a "dubious-discuss" and a "citation needed" tag in the "Specifications (Block 1)" section.  Done Faizan (talk) 08:20, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    Has 8 dead links in the article.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
Thanks for starting the review, there was a huge backlog. I am taking exams but will try to get this completed as soon as possible. Regarding the 8 dead links, these articles of Janes and Aviation Week were either deleted from their websites or were moved to the paid archives. I could not find them in the available archives too, I cannot find the substitute sources. Faizan (talk) 10:18, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Universal British English is being used in the article. Faizan (talk) 10:21, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well, regarding the jargon, I propose that the text be abridged. Aircraft fairing is a component of the airframe, but I am also sure that most readers have not heard about it before. Faizan (talk) 11:03, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No reasonable split can be made. Generally article is split when it crosses 100 KB. General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon is >114 KB. So split is unnecessary. Faizan (talk) 12:27, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
