Talk:Leeds Country Way

message: Unfortunately, I had to fail this outright, simply because the style wasn't very good, mainly in the route section. 1-2 sentence paragraphs a GA does not make. Fix these and you can certainly resubmit it for consideration. Wizardman 01:46, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I think we've between us addressed all these points (I hit an edit conflict at one point while we were both acting on it). Thanks for the comment about the maypole - I found a good ref and a non-POV description!  How does it look now?  (Will get back to it tomorrow - no more for now). Thanks for your help and kind words.  (I thought the ref re Emmerdale clarified the status of the village, but have made it clearer now.) PamD 22:56, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: GA assessment

message: This is a nice article, very close to GA. I don't see that the short sentences in the Route section are at all a matter for concern; they map nicely onto the route itself. There are a few minor MOS issues, but they're easily fixed.
I do have a very few other comments though:
*"... the path was relaunched on 26 September 2006". I'm not sure about this. How can a path be "launched"?
*"The Leeds Country Way is a circular long-distance footpath ... It follows footpaths ...". So it's a footpath that follows a footpath?
*"Here there is a glimpse of a small village, not marked on any map, which is the set for the TV series Emmerdale ..." I'm left dangling with that. Is it a real village, or a set for Emmerdale?
*"The river is followed downstream ...". Best to keep it all active I'd suggest: "The path follows the river downstream ...".
*"The path from Carlton ..". Perhaps better would be "From Carlton, the path ..."?
*"celebrated maypole" sounds like POV without a supporting reference.
*"From here the path skirts south of West Ardsley, and reaches Woodkirk with its historic church, on the A653. The ruins of Howley Hall (built 1590 for Sir John Savile) are passed before dropping down to reach Scotchman Lane." I think this bothers me because  the first sentence is written from the point of view of the path, but the second seems to be taking the point of view of the walker. I'm probably being too picky about that though ...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Malleus Fatuarum (talk • contribs) 22:39, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
