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

This article is being put on a 7-day hold.

  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar):   b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):  
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):   d (copyvio and plagiarism):  
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  

Copy changes

edit
  • There are numerous locations in the article that need tense changing to reflect the 2019 closure (e.g. is → was). This is probably the single largest content issue on the page.

  • I feel like there is something missing. Why did the factory close? How did the business evolve over the years? I'd love to know that but don't get that from this.
  •   Done


  • Watch tone in a few places which feels a touch promotional or overly positive.
  •   Done


  • Earwig mostly catches quotes in the article.
  •   Done


  • Practically every reference is archived.
  •   Done


  • Lots of great photos (some taken by Kelley in 2003!) which are all suitable for use. Some images do need alt tags.
  •   Done

Comments

  • @Doug Coldwell: Almost there (made a few minor cleanup changes). This sentence I'd excise for tone: The factory's FAQ said "our rubies and sapphires are really ruby and sapphire!" Ping me when that is removed and I think this can be promoted. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 22:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
