Hello User:ChrisGualtieri, I think I reviewed another GAN of your recently, but then I thought, why not review another one? First I am going to upgrade the article to C-class, since obviously this shouldn't be a stub anymore. As on the other review page, I stated that typically I will quote a portion of the article and state the error or query.--12george1 (talk) 03:17, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
- "The tavern was originally built in 1738 and owned by Captain Alden. By 1850, it had passed to Alden's descendent, Mr. Wattles." - What was Captain Alden and Mr. Wattles first names? Might be useful, but wouldn't be the end of the world if you couldn't find the answer to that question.
- Absolutely no idea, never could track it down. I could try and get more from the state... but it wasn't promising. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 04:34, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
- "but it was part of the town green by the 1903 publication of Brother Jonathan.[3]" - First, what is a "town green"? I have never heard that term. Second you may want to state the Brother Jonathan is a book
- Village green - And okay. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 04:34, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
- The organization of "Historical significance" is awkward. The first paragraph is unsourced, but a summary of the second paragraph. So it's a bit redundant. For example, you mentioned 3 times that General Prescott was horsewhipped. Isn't once enough?
- Sorry, reduced and fixed.
- Under the references, add the publication date for reference #3 and #11.
- I do not know the true date ref 11 was published - but I did add the date for the meeting to the source.
- Add accessdates for references #1, #3, #4, #6, and #7
- Kinda confused here - the 3, 4, 6, and 7, are all books. They do not need accessdates I believe. The content does not change. I fixed the 1st one - which was dated, but it used a template which I had to go around. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 04:34, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
- In about a week, I will be back to check your progress. Otherwise, you can leave a note on my talk page if you finish sooner. Regards, --12george1 (talk) 03:17, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
- @12george1: - How's it looking now? ChrisGualtieri (talk) 04:34, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
- @ChrisGualtieri: - I am now going this pass this article and list it as a GA. Congratulations on a job well done,--12george1 (talk) 15:54, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. It is sad it became a parking lot, but it was long gone for over a hundred years. Still on the historic register though. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:12, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
