Review section

I am nominating this featured article for review because I raised several issues on the talk page more than 2 weeks ago, which have yet to be addressed. There are 12 citation needed tags; also, the article heavily cites official sources while neglecting scholarship, as I noted on talk. (t · c) buidhe 22:21, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - A dead give away that there is a major lack of non-official commentary is the statement "Various academics have written on how the Scottish Parliament can be improved as a governing institution" in the criticism section. We are told this, but not what those scholars think should be done. This article seems overfocused on the offical aspects of it, without any secondary commentary. If we are told the official perspective, but not what unaffiliated scholars and RS think about the setup, that is a neutrality issue, as we're only getting one side of the story.

• Buidhe there was some work on this article on 17 January-- update needed. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 00:32, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • SandyGeorgia Yes, there was a reduction in cn tags [2] by adding citations and removing unsourced content, but on the other hand we are not any further along in including non-official perspectives, as noted by Hog Farm above. (t · c) buidhe 00:36, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Move to FARC, per Buidhe. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 07:31, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
