Done! All the stubs, at least. A couple of thoughts: a) As expected, most of the stubs weren't :-). BLPs are not my forte, but I'd say there's nine at most, and two or three of those are marginal to be uprated.
[This is a pretty systemic problem with our talkpage ratings and stub tags: as Risker says, they get very stale. The sheer labour that would be required to keep them up-to-date on a systematic basis is daunting...] b) Lots of mid-range start/C mediocrity as is so often the case with Wikipedia, lots of it with a reasonable amount of content but needing some hacking around to get into shape c) If anyone is looking for a weekend project and is comfortable with political BLPs, I'd say Helen Clark is able to be pushed to GA with a bit of polishing and tidying, and Michelle Bachelet likewise. 10% of the list properly-reviewed would be nothing to sniff at. (Bachelet has an odd gap in that the article doesn't seem to have anything from her current presidency, but otherwise it's quite well-structured and not overly recentist, which is unusual for a politician's biography!).
