[edit] Liskeard railway station

I note that you have added the TWP banner to the talk page. I further note that you have given the article a "Class B" assessment. Please advise on how you reach this decision, as normally these have the be decided by a review process, and I see no trace of such a review. Olana North (talk) 07:25, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

While updating this page (among tens of others) with 05/06 usage statistics, I found that some railway stations weren't included in the WP:TRAIN project. When adding these, I made a cursory assessment as to their quality, and included this in the banner. Liskeard struck me at the time as being more complete than other articles which I classified as stub or start class, so I gave a B rating.

On a second look, I can see that it is not unequivocally B-class, and I have downgraded it back to a start-class article. Looking at the assessment log, I can't find any other articles that I classified as B-class.

Thanks for that. Actaully, having looked at the assessment criteria, an article can be classed as having a "Class B" quality rating without having a review process, but it seems that at least more than one editor should have given it the once over. Thanks again. Olana North (talk) 10:43, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Anglesey Central Railway

I've rated this article as B-class, which is the highest rating an individual editor can assign to an article, but it is worthwhile looking at some of the comments made by reviewers on recent GA-class articles (or candidates) e.g. Talk:Glasgow, Paisley, Kilmarnock and Ayr Railway and some non-railway ones Talk:Somerset Coal Canal. Its a good article in terms of its layout and structure; but it has some scope for improvement (see for example Talk:Manchester on a GA review). Some of the things that I thought needing cleaning up was inconsistent use of (full) dates, e.g. 1 April 2008, 1st May 2007 and 1st June, 2006; in-line citations both before and after full stops/commas (some have spaces between the full stops/commas, others don't); use of undefined abbreviations, e.g. "ACR", but there were others; and partially cited books. There are probably some more wikilinks that could go in, such as Birmingham; and, Amlwch appears in several sections, but is only linked in the first section; same for Parys Mountain. For GA, the referencing is inadequate; so if you which to take it beyond B-class more work would be needed; but it is acceptable for a B-class article.Pyrotec (talk) 16:41, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

That's excellent, thanks. I'll be attacking these points, and may get it to GA in the near future. Ansbaradigeidfran (talk) 17:12, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
