GA Review[edit]

This review is transcluded from Talk:Greyfriars, Bristol/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: hamiltonstone (talk) 04:43, 27 October 2010 (UTC) The article looks good, if brief, neutral, stable and well-written. The map looks to be in order, though I've limited experience with map image issues.[reply]

The map is the standard Bristol infobox map. Jezhotwells (talk) 12:32, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Specifics:

The lead says "Greyfriars, in Bristol, England, was, like other locations of the same name, a Franciscan friary". If this article is about the location called Greyfriars, then more informaiton is needed about post-dissolution uses for the article to meet the GA comprehensiveness criteria. If it is about the friary, then the scope is OK, but I wouldn't use the word "location" to describe the subject.

Fixed, this was an interpolation by another editor. I think the wording is now good. Jezhotwells (talk) 12:32, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It appears to me that a little more detail might be squeezed out of the Dental School history page (http://www.bristol.ac.uk/dental/history.html) - some description and some post-dissolution info there that hasn't been included perhaps?

I have looked at that agian and added more detail. the page seems to have been expanded since I last looked at it. Jezhotwells (talk) 12:32, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a tiny smidgin of additional archaeological detail with refs.

Thank you. Jezhotwells (talk) 12:32, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll check in over coming days. hamiltonstone (talk) 04:43, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

OK, all good. FWIW I would create an archived version of the Dental School page at webcite (if there isn't a recent one at archive.org), since it seems quite a useful source for this article. Not relevant to GA - just a thought. hamiltonstone (talk) 02:54, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, webcite is now at http://www.webcitation.org/5trqlurb2 Jezhotwells (talk) 19:08, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
