I think the main pro of this work is the last section about what those nominations mean. Author of this work tells us what questions can we ask ourselves to rate a work. It is very helpful indeed, so critic can memorize those questions and use them when they criticize anything. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/> I think it achieves 5 stars for Vision.

This goal of this work is rather like to [link] , or those 19 works — [link] . It is because the theme of criticizing is popular, but not everyone is able to criticize in right way.
So, this work has a lot of differencies from the others, but the part about rating is very similar to the last part of [link] .

I like the style of the author. It is rather logical. The only thing I don't like in this style is using percents (90% of the time [...] that 10% usually [...] technical mishaps) instead of «most of the time». But it is only my opinion. But I don't like typesetting of this work and I truly dislike the head of this work. I think it must be either written in HTML file or it must be made better. But this is not the goal of this work, so it weakly matters.

I receive a lot of new knowledge about criticizing, so I appreciate it. This work is worth of reading for everyone who writes critiques.
