#Expand the lead a little. You can mention at least a statement about its use in the film. Speaking of the film, you could consider creating an article for the film so the section has a link to the film. If you desire to do so, make sure to follow the guidelines of WP:Films. You can always do that later of course. {film article=) IvoShandor 09:04, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

replies: text:  - Pretty much. Dates of ground breaking and completion for current building added. The other two buildings are as accurate as can be without consulting my inner historian (see your talk page). IvoShandor 08:58, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

text: Sections added: "Circuit court history," discusses a few notable cases with more, of course, to be added (again, see your talk page). "Significance"- talks of its value to the historic district and its inclusion as a contributing property. The building won no awards that I can find, this of course could be added if info surfaces during my more in depth research (for the eventual FA (aka "Old College") Try.

thread_title: GA

message: I have passed this article according to the GA criteria. Excellent work on expanding the article and creating the film article. Just to let you know, if you're into the serial comma or not, you can add one after "doors" in "The furnishings in the courtroom, including the chandeliers, plasterwork, beveled glass doors and stained glass work are all original." That's not a requirement, but you can change it if you want. Also for the swastika statement, consider rewording it to something like "The railings are decorated with the swastika symbol, and although the symbol has mostly been associated with Nazi Germany, it has been traced back as far as the 3rd millennium B.C.E. in Asia. Finally, disappeared is spelled wrong in the third paragraph of the Circuit court history section. These are just a few things you can change if you want. Keep expanding if you can, but good job bringing it this far. Keep up the good work in continuing to improve the quality of articles on Wikipedia. --Nehrams2020 22:04, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Congrats Ivo! I personally add comma after all series, like we were taught in school, but for some reason when listing a series now, it is becoming more common not to put it before the contraction, which doesn't make awhole lot of sense to me I guess. Something I have gotten into a debate about before. Anyways, congrats!--Kranar drogin 11:01, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
