GA Reassessment[edit]

This article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force in an effort to ensure all listed Good articles continue to meet the Good article criteria. In reviewing the article, I have found there are some issues that may need to be addressed, listed below. I will check back in seven days. If these issues are addressed, the article will remain listed as a Good article. Otherwise, it may be delisted (such a decision may be challenged through WP:GAR). If improved after it has been delisted, it may be nominated at WP:GAN. Feel free to drop a message on my talk page if you have any questions, and many thanks for all the hard work that has gone into this article thus far.

  • The article contains some peacock language such as "The north-south expanse is similarly impressive ...".
    • Fixed the one example, not sure I know what constitutes "peacock" language. Joe I 05:38, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • Not sure you can talk about Texas without peacocking. Surely anyone that's met a Texan knows this. But, yeah, there's a bit of in the article. -- warr (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 10:35, 3 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • The Geology section is completely uncited, and the rather large Resources section only has one citation right at the top. What is the source of all this information?
  • One image shows "Captain Marcy's route though Texas in 1854". Who was Captain Marcy?
    • Added link to Marcy's page. Joe I 05:38, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
