I've listed this article for peer review I'd like to nominate it as a WP:FAC. There is a current lack of representation of Mauritian articles, hence, what could be a better article than one that is related to Mauritius' history, society and politics—all in one article. This is also my first full article for peer review. My previous ones were mostly focused on listings.

Before you go for a FAC, IMO go for a WP:GAC (Good article) and evaluate the article in accordance with WP:GA? criteria. References:

Coverage: The article seems less like an article on a building complex, architecture.

There is too much "Background" (otherwise History is fine). There should be a distinction between text about the structure and text generally written about Indians working as labourers in Mauritius. Reduce or remove the latter part as relevant only to a certain extent - to the building itself. Legacy is almost a complete WP:UNDUE and major parts of the section are best removed. The section mostly deals with Legacy of the immigration. Condense all that background material in a single section called "History"
Write more about the interior and exterior architecture of the building
More images of interior and exterior needed. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 12:08, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
