Talk:Buckton Castle

message: Thank you for asking me to comment on this article which may be a candidate for GA.  I am no expert but I make the following points towards possible improvement, which I hope are helpful.
*It's a pity there is not more information around but I do not see why short articles should not be considered as GAs.  The information you have is clearly presented and very well referenced.
*The lead is rather short. Can it be expanded to give a fuller summary of the whole article?
**It's been expanded a bit. Nev1 (talk) 21:37, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Towards GA 

message: Hi there, I have reviewed this article against the Wikipedia:good article criteria and although I am not quite prepared to pass the article for GA immediately, I don't think there is a long way to go. I have listed below the principle problems which prevent this article from achieving GA status. The article now has seven days to address these issues, and should the contributors disagree with my comments then please indicate below why you disagree and suggest a solution, compromise or explanation. Further time will be granted if a concerted effort is being made to address the problems, and as long as somebody is genuinely trying to deal with the issues raised then I will not fail the article. I am aware that my standards are quite high, but I feel that an article deserves as thorough a review as possible when applying for GA and that a tough review process here is an important stepping stone to future FAC attempts. Please do not take offence at anything I have said, nothing is meant personally and maliciously and if anyone feels aggrieved then please notify me at once and I will attempt to clarify the comments in question. Finally, should anyone disagree with my review or eventual decision then please take the article to WP:GAR to allow a wider selection of editors to comment on the issues discussed here. Well done on the work so far.
===Issues preventing promotion===
(These issues must be satisfactorily addressed, in the article itself or here, before GA promotion can go ahead)
*The lead is made up of short, unconnected sentences. Please break these up to form longer compund sentances which flow better.
**I've had a go at the lead and hopefully it should have a better, more logical flow. Nev1 (talk) 15:35, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, I had a quick go at the lead myself to try and smooth it a little more. The reason I took on this review even though there are articles ahead of it is that I don't have a vast amount of time to devote to GA at the moment and consequently I try and push through shorter articles close to the criteria (thus reducing the backlog within my personal time constraints). I am happy to pass this as it is, and well done on the work achieved.--Jackyd101 (talk) 17:05, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
