Largest floating bridge?

[edit]

The lede states "The bridge is one of only a few floating bridges and is the largest worldwide." I don't have access to the reference, but could someone who does clarify in the article what "largest" means? Many people would take it to mean longest, but that's certainly not the case for this (see Pontoon_bridge#Current). Bennetto (talk) 19:23, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you email me, I'll send you a copy of the ref.--v/r - TP 19:28, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I went back to the sources and the source was specifically talking about the moveable span. I've fixed the article to reflect that.--v/r - TP 01:09, 19 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review

[edit]
This review is transcluded from Talk:Admiral Clarey Bridge/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: Adam Cuerden (talk · contribs) 06:05, 22 February 2014 (UTC) This article has all the content one could expect. The references appear good - there's a few issues with formatting, for example, WOLFGANG SAXON is a name, it shouldn't have been in all caps (I've fixed it now). There could be some other fixes to references, for example The Honolulu Advertiser could be linked, but these are relatively minor issues.[reply]

The biggest problem this has, however, is it's not very organized. There's little structure to the sections; for example, the section on the ferries - which predated the bridge - comes after the sections describing the bridge's planning and construction, which is an odd deviation from chronological order. The section "Namesake" should probably finish the article, that'd help keep focus.

On the whole, a very good start just needing a little rearrangement of material. Adam Cuerden (talk) 06:05, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I reorganized it a bit, is that better?--v/r - TP 07:00, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I made a couple tweaks - a couple things were subheadings, without a connection to the heading above them - and that'll do, I think. Pass. I've put it in Wikipedia:Good articles/Engineering and technology#Road infrastructure: United States - I didn't think Hawai'i quite fit into any of the subheadings - there's Western United States, but that generally refers to the west continental U.S. Adam Cuerden (talk) 19:50, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
