I've listed this article for peer review in order to receive and implement feedback before nominating for FAC.

  • Given the length of the article, I'd suggest expanding the lead to at least two paragraphs
  • Dead links
  • Check for MOS issues throughout - contractions, curly quotes, etc
  • Each paragraph should include at least one citation
  • Make sure your citations are consistent - references to the same type of source should look similar. Nikkimaria (talk) 22:06, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! Nikkimaria, could you give me an example of citations that need correction? I looked in the Reference section but didn't know exactly what you were referring to. I appreciate the help.
Look for example at footnotes 6 and 7. Both are newspaper articles. The first has the newspaper name in italics after the article title, the location and publication date, the accessdate in mdy format. The second has the newspaper name not in italics before the article title, no location or publication date, and the accessdate in ymd format. Nikkimaria (talk) 02:47, 6 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
