New York (1836 steamboat)
- ... that Charles Dickens described the Long Island Sound steamboat New York (pictured) as "a sullen, cumbrous, ungraceful, unshiplike leviathan"?
Created by Gatoclass (talk). Self-nominated at 11:07, 30 October 2021 (UTC).
New article is 6,808 characters long and nominated two days later. No copyvios detected (high confidence of violation due to direct quotes that had been copied by The Free Dictionary as an example and have all been cited; AGF all refs re. any close paraphrasing issues, since none can go through Dup detector). Article is well-sourced. Hook is 130 characters long (under 200 character max.) and is interesting. Refs 5 and 14 (verifying the hook) are reliable sources. Image is free and in the public domain. Only QPQ needs to be completed. โBloom6132 (talk) 05:31, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
