Hello, my name is Reconrabbit, and I'm going to be reviewing this article. Please give me some time to complete a source check following the start of this review - I'll be making some minor tweaks to the article to get it in line with the WP:MOS, but there will probably be a few things that I'll ask you to address before the close.

- @Reconrabbit: Thank you so much!! This article is mostly cited using newspaper clippings acquired from Wikipedia Library, and at least one of the citations had died since I wrote the page, and can only be accessed through the archive link. Because of these reasons, I am so grateful you decided to still review the page 😄 To access any of the newspaper clippings for free, replace the beginning of the url with "https://www-newspapers-com.wikipedialibrary.idm.oclc.org/".

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
All eight buildings part of the galleries
: A little awkward phrasing. Were there other parts of the galleries that weren't buildings? Can this be clarified?"R.J. Whitley as the owner/president"
: Was he both owner and president? What's the intended title?In regards to the companies their products were from: smaller and local companies were often chosen, but some larger brands including Barcalounger, Bassett Furniture, and La-Z-Boy were also offered.
: Something about this is off. It might be better to completely omit the "In regards to..."Some services the business offered were included complete interior design
: Is "included" or "were" the intended word to start this short list?this number later grew to where product departments with individual managers were later needed
: It might help to clarify that "this number" refers to the amount of salesmen employed.
- B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
The duo
: I don't know if this fits into the encyclopedic style.- The "Closure" heading can get lost in the text because of how small it is. I would recommend making it sub-heading level 1 instead of 2.
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?
- A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

- D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
- A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
- Is it broad in its coverage?
- A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
- Any further broadening of the scope of this article would probably require the use of less reliable resources such as press releases, etc.
- B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
- A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
- Is it neutral?

- Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
- A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:
- B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
- Any historical images of the location or R.J. Whitley would be great for this article, but the addition of such are probably out of the scope of this review.

This states that "The store is holding a sale until all of its warehouses are emptied of the remaining furniture," but not that the product was gone by late February, unless that's in the video that I can't watch without having an account. - [15]
