Cape May County, New Jersey

Nominator(s): ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:50, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about Cape May County, which is at the southern tip of New Jersey. I worked on this article last year and submitted it for GA review, hoping for some feedback on how to improve it, only the GA reviewer didn't find anything of note. I believe this article is the most comprehensive source for the county. It would be only the third county to be a FA, if successful. Please note that this is a Wikicup nomination. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:50, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Withdraw - I see there are a lot more issues than I realized. I am withdrawing the nomination. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:22, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Right away I'm seeing some serious issues with sources. For formatting, the article does not follow MOS:LEADCITE and WP:INFOBOXCITE. There's a bare url (ref 101), and much of the "Notable people" section is unsourced. b ui dhe (formerly Catrìona) 11:47, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I started fixing it, but there are a lot more issues than I'd feel comfortable with keeping this nomination open. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:22, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Hurricanehink: perhaps peer review first? ——SerialNumber54129 16:38, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
