Date of review: 8 December 2006 |
I read and reviewed the article assessing it for GA status. I would not recommend it at this time for a number of reasons. Items to correct:
- Online references should utilize this format: <ref>{{cite web | last = | first = | authorlink = | coauthors = | title = | work = | publisher = | date = | url = | format = | doi = | accessdate = }}</ref>
- The article should have some references from hard-copy published materials (books, magazines, newspapers)
- British spelling is included (since this a geography article in the U.S., American spelling should consistently be used)
- All red links should be fixed (create an article or remove wikilink)
- Some grammar issues
- The article would benefit from a city infobox
- A GA should have at least one good photograph, particularly for a city - this shouldn't be hard to do.
- Between a number and a unit (e.g. 7.4 km²) there should be a (& n b s p ;) rather than a space.
- What do Ripley and Franklin Mine have to do with Education?
- add a References section (like this:
===References===
<references/>
For examples of most of these items, see Minnetonka, Minnesota (although Minnetonka is missing hard references and has red links too) Appraiser 17:18, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
