Well-written
editThe drama, the intrigue, I can't lie this was quite entertaining! I did a hefty copyedit (which, by the way, watch out for "would" being used for past tense). Otherwise, I have surprisingly little to say:
- Revisit the infobox, namely the "Legal status" and "Purpose" paramaters
- Done.
- Perhaps link "service fraternity" instead of just "fraternity"
- Done.
The name collectively refers to a handful of loosely organizationally tied groups that have existed since the Stewards Society's founding in the 1980s
— perhaps: "that have existed since the First Stewards Society", as otherwise, it's a bit self-referential.
- Done.
The White Rose was loosely compared to Steward Throat
— by who?
- Done.
Verifiable with no original research
editA variety of reliable local papers are used, student papers are sometimes used as sources, but this is okay per WP:RSSM. No copyvio issues during my spot-check, paraphrasing is used well, and Earwig shows a solid score of 24%, namely to attributed quotes and long titles.
- Thanks!!
- Consider removing or re-sourcing Higher Ed Dive. It's a publication of Industry Dive, which is already of unknown reliability. However, it's use is quite minor, and relativitely uncontroversial, so I'll leave this as a suggestion
- Done.
- More of a priority, could you mention the "Society of Stewards" in the body, as it is currently only in the infobox?
- Done, that was some damage left by a vandal a long while ago. I suspect it was a Steward (Probably not but I can dream.)
- ah, why am I not surprised. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 12:07, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
Spot-check
edit- Feinberg, Lawrence (February 28, 1988). "Secret Stewards Disbanded on Georgetown Campus". The Washington Post.
- Can't find the "undertones of conservative religiousness, and.. anti-modern(ism)" quote, but looks good otherwise.
- Oops, dropped a source on accident. Done
- Shapira, Ian (March 14, 2013). "Secret society is again at center of an uproar on Georgetown U. campus". The Washington Post. ISSN 0190-8286. Archived from the original on 2020-10-28. Retrieved 2022-09-23.
- Looks good
- "Stewards: The Best Secret Society GU Can Offer'". The Hoya. October 27, 2000. Archived from the original on 2022-09-24. Retrieved 2022-09-23.
- They never explicitely say that the plaque contained the logo, just that the logo could be seen in the corner of their paperwork. Looks good otherwise.
- Clarified, added an additional source to fix this. Done
- "Secret Societies Unveiled (Again) At Prestigious Campus". HuffPost. March 15, 2013. Archived from the original on 2022-09-24. Retrieved 2022-09-23.
- Looks good alongside The Post
- "Viewpoint: Speaking for the Second Stewards Society". The Hoya. March 6, 2020. Archived from the original on 2022-04-08. Retrieved 2022-09-23.
- Looks good
Broad in its coverage
editI don't have much to say here, a look at Google News shows that everything major is in use. I couldn't find anything in Newspapers.com, nor in any books, except for a mention in Facing Georgetown's History. The Hoya has done a lot of coverage, but I'm comfortable with how it's limited to only when necessary. This Esquire article could be a lighthearted add to the "Reception" section, but I wouldn't call it critical.
- Done, added a little blurb
Neutral
editA touchy subject, but I believe the article does a nice job at attributing the exposés and presenting the responses.
Stable
editNo recent content disputes or edit wars.
Illustrated
editThe two keys are symbolic of the society and are your own work. I don't think we could get many more images than that.
