@Kew Gardens 613: What's the name of the Municipal Archives report you uploaded to Flickr two days ago? It might be a good source, especially the "Evaluation of Options". epicgenius (talk) 13:04, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I need to check.I only scanned a few pages. There are about 20 other pages. I must have forgotten to upload it a few years ago. I will see if I can find the name.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 12:18, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. epicgenius (talk) 02:24, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review[edit]

I am quickfailinig this article largely for violating WP:WIAGA #2. There are large swaths of uncited text, including several entire paragraphs. No paragraph should be without citation since each should present a new idea in a well-organized article. There are even instances of successive uncited paragraphs.

The New York Times is a great WP:RS, you may want to broaden to other sources as you complete the citation request above although it is not required.

I would also encourage merging or expanding stubby paragraphs.

Also dollar amounts greater than 10 years old should probably have dollar conversions. See how they are employed in articles such as Bobby Orr or Jackie Robinson.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 06:27, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
