  • ... that an entire Gothic-arch barn (example pictured) could be ordered from the Sears & Roebuck catalog? Source: "The Honor-Bilt Division of Sears, Roebuck & Co, had been operating a highly successful mail order house and farm building business since 1908. All materials were pre-cut and finished by Honor-Bilt, and shipped by rail to be assembled by the customer. " [1]

  • I'll start reviewing this. SarahSV (talk) 20:13, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
  • It has been expanded fivefold since 2 April, it's long enough, it seems policy compliant, and the image is free. The hook is short enough and sourced. Plagiarism issues taken on trust. One thing to decide is whether to write Gothic-arch barn with a hyphen. A hyphen is correct, but I see the sources don't use it. The article does, but the title and hook don't. Whatever you choose, it has to be consistent. Otherwise this is good to go. SarahSV (talk) 20:35, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
    • SlimVirgin, hyphen added to article title and hook. MB 21:35, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
    • Thanks. I've removed a couple of unnecessary hyphens. Note: Gothic-arch barn, but Gothic arch. Now you're good to go. SarahSV (talk) 22:21, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
