The Making of the English Landscape

[edit]
  • Reviewed: Not a self-nomination

Improved to Good Article status by Chiswick Chap (talk). Nominated by Oceanh (talk) at 21:12, 13 August 2014 (UTC).

  • Almost everything is in order except that there are two entire sections with no in-text citations at all, specifically "Editions" and "Illustrations"; without a citation, "and so apparently the work of Hoskins himself." sounds like OR. ViperSnake151  Talk  02:55, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for the review. For plot summaries the source is assumed to be the book itself (see also Wikipedia:DYK Supplementary guidelines, D2: inline citations not required for plot summary.) I think the "Illustrations" section qualifies as plot summary, but not sure about the "Editions" section, I agree with you that this section should be cited. Though the article has recently been subject to GA review, and I assume that the GA criteria for verifiability and no original research have been checked in the process. The ALT1 hook looks fine to me. Oceanh (talk) 12:22, 17 August 2014 (UTC)

Review needed. EEng (talk) 02:30, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

New enough (as GA), length ok, hook (ALT1) cited, images all correctly licensed. There are three fair use images in this article, which usually would be considered excessive, but there was some discussion on this at GA and the rationales appear valid. Good to go.
