GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

• Article is well laid out; Infobox is quite the informative data

1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):

• The Lede is a little bit lean and sparse, given the history of this location. Y
• Reference 3 is dead; it is on the Archive.org site. Y
• Reference 8 is a dead link and indicates new data will be available anon; Y
• Reference 12 is a most interesting read.
• Demographics - is the 2010 Census the latest information available?
  Resolved

1. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

• I am surprised that the construction of the Cherokee Dam - where 87% of the existing population were forced to move by way of eminent domain, is not mentioned in the Lede. Y

1. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

• NPOV is preserved in this article.

1. Overall:

• Quite an interesting history of Bean station, well written and well laid out, although the Lede is a little spare.
• This reassessment has been occasioned by a 'drive by' GA review; the article is likely to keep this status if we can attend to the minor issues raised above. --Whiteguru (talk) 07:55, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

• Thank you AppalachianCentrist and Bneu2013 for your work on this article. The lede looks far more robust, the demographics have been updated, which is really good. Ditto dead links. --Whiteguru (talk) 01:56, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
