[edit] GA Re-Review and In-line citations

Members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles are in the process of doing a re-review of current Good Article listings to ensure compliance with the standards of the Good Article Criteria. (Discussion of the changes and re-review can be found here). A significant change to the GA criteria is the mandatory use of some sort of in-line citation (In accordance to WP:CITE) to be used in order for an article to pass the verification and reference criteria. Currently this article does not include in-line citations. It is recommended that the article's editors take a look at the inclusion of in-line citations as well as how the article stacks up against the rest of the Good Article criteria. GA reviewers will give you at least a week's time from the date of this notice to work on the in-line citations before doing a full re-review and deciding if the article still merits being considered a Good Article or would need to be de-listed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us on the Good Article project talk page or you may contact me personally. On behalf of the Good Articles Project, I want to thank you for all the time and effort that you have put into working on this article and improving the overall quality of the Wikipedia project.

[edit] Improving the flow

I think the article has a lot of useful detail, but maybe it needs to have the logical flow imrpoved. I think it needs to start with something like geography, timeline, site difficulty, technical solution, why adopted, shortcomings, subsequent developments elsewhere.

I think some of the detail, e.g. the boys who set fire to Conw(a)y bridge, while true, detract from the authority of this page.

I'm not sure that there are many other references that can be cited, but it needs to be attempted. If no-one has any adverse comments, I'll have a shot at this shortly

Haven't looked at the whole flow, sorry, but you could easily lose the 2nd para of the 'epilogue'. (Just check that the details are also contained in the appropriate articles...) As for references, I'm sure there are more around. I've been working on Wharncliffe Viaduct (also Brunel) and I've been surprised how many refs we could find.
