Comments[edit]

1.

  • "The building was finished being constructed in 1864." - Consider "Construction of the building was finished in 1864"
 Done --Doug Coldwell (talk) 08:50, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "and some valiant firemen. [6]" - Remove the extraneous space after the period
 Done --Doug Coldwell (talk) 08:52, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Link patent models at the first point where you discuss models in the prose
 Done --Doug Coldwell (talk) 08:59, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "nineteenth century" - hyphenate
 Done --Doug Coldwell (talk) 08:59, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The patent office could loan out the rejected models to museums and other organizations, the increase in litigation made their preservation important and militated against such transfers." - This sentence is confusing me. Can it be rephrased? Also, I think Patent Office should be capitalized at all points when you're referring to the bureau

  • Does Campbell have an OCLC?
 Done --Doug Coldwell (talk) 10:14, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ref 8 the date should be October 26, 1877, not June 2006. I'd recommend setting it up as a cite journal or cite periodical, with the journal/periodical name being The Engineer. Also, I don't think the comma in "Superintendent, of Models" is needed.

  • Add a short description. If you're unfamiliar with doing this, I can add one.
 Done - Not familiar with this. Yes, could you please add one. Thank you!--Doug Coldwell (talk) 10:37, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's it for the first pass, I'll give this one another look through later. Hog Farm (talk) 22:18, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Hog Farm: All issues have been addressed. Could you take another look. Thanks.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 10:37, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
