[edit] Weymouth

This article was nominated by me 3 weeks ago, and failed to recieve FA status, for a number of reasons. The opponents described what needed to be changed to the article, and with excellent help and long dialogues with User:Tutmosis, a long series of improvements have been made to the article. Hence Tutmosis has now confirmed his support for this article to become featured, and I believe that the dozens of improvements I and a few others have made have brought the article upto featured quality. I have checked the article for common mistakes and things which people may object to, and made sure that it conforms to WP:MOS and Featured article criteria.

First FAC

• SupportObject You don't wikilink solo years, refs come after punctuation and with no space between it and the punctuation--not in the middle of a sentence, dates shouldn't have "th" after them, suggest review the article for more wikilinking.Rlevse 14:16, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

OK thanks for the input, wikilinking has been reviewed Done Rossenglish 14:25, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Final items: Your see also links should be in alphabetical order and your dates in the refs should be wikilinked. The best thing to do for the refs is put them in citephp/web format. I've done one for you to show you how. Rlevse 15:04, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Ive done the see also bit, but the citephp/web formatting of the refs will take a while ;) Its alot of fiddly work to change all those refs, I'll do them slowly one section at a time =)Rossenglish 15:29, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Rlevse, when I have finished changing these refs, would you support the nomination, or do you have any other improvements? Rossenglish 18:19, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

That's be all. That's what I meant by "Final items". Rlevse 19:21, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Well thankyou! Just to let you know, all the references are in the new format now. Thanks for the suggestions Rlevse. Rossenglish 19:55, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
