### Lead
Ruth Archer (previously Pritchard) I think this should read better as "Ruth Archer (née Pritchard)"
I've changed it to "Ruth Archer (also Pritchard)" as fictional characters are created and not born. There's been a big thing at WP:SOAPS about it, and I believe "also" was the compromise. - JuneGloom07  Talk 02:25, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
I assume there is no link for Felicity Finch? Can we add "actress" and her nationality?  Done
She made her debut in the 15 July 1987 episode broadcast. I think ""broadcast" may be omitted  Done
Can Liz Rigbey be linked? Don't if this is to be a redlink.
No article I'm afraid. - JuneGloom07  Talk 02:25, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
strong willed Should there not be a dash in between?  Done


### Creation and casting
Instead of adding the Smethurst citation to the end of each of the first few lines of the section, you can simply add it to the end of the last line it supports.
I think I've done this right. - JuneGloom07  Talk 02:43, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
Can you add who exactly Smethurst is? Author? Critic?  Done
Link "love interest" as you have in the lead  Done
"Scottish" may be linked  Done


### Characterisation
"feminist" may be linked  Done
authors of The Archers Archives opined  "Archives, opined"  Done


### Marriage to David Archer
and were well suited Should it not be "well-suited"?  Done


### Breast cancer
I may be good to expand "GP"  Done
Can "Chemotherapy" be linked?  Done
her system would still contain toxic drugs Wouldn't "body" sound better than "system"?  Done


### Reception
While Rachel Cooke from the New Statesman was not a fan of the character at all, writing "Ruth bores me to sobs, so I didn't give a fig that this was out of character." I think "while" makes the sentence sound incomplete  Done
The last two paras of "Near affair with Sam Batton" may be shifted to Reception, perhaps under a subsection.  Done


### In popular culture and other media
Can "Rwanda" be linked?  Done
That should be all. These done, I would be glad to promote this. Sainsf <^>Feel at home 06:52, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Sainsf, I'm so sorry! I totally missed this. My watchlist has been a little crazy over the past few days and this slipped through the net. I'll start working on it ASAP. - JuneGloom07  Talk 15:53, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
@Sainsf: Hi, I believe I've worked through all of the points you raised. Thank you for the review and your patience! - JuneGloom07  Talk 02:43, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
Thanks JuneGloom07, you have been great in your response. I am sure this splendid article meets all the GA criteria now. Really happy to promote this. Cheers! Sainsf <^>Feel at home 03:56, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
