Checking against the GA criteria

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   I would recommend splitting the lead into two paragraphs to make the lead more balanced, per WP:LEAD

   Link "gable" for accessibility

   I would also recommend expanding the lead slightly in order to summarise, but I'll turn a blind eye as I recognise information could be scarce in this subject matter

   "The house's "Lightning Splitter" design harkens to the superstitious belief that the sharp angled gable would deflect bolts of lightning" - is this claim in the source given?

   "The house is located on the southwest corner of Pawtucket Avenue and Willett Avenue (Rhode Island Route 103)" - personally I wouldn't use brackets for the road

   "were not listed in the National Register of Historic Places nomination serve to further enhance its importance" - 'serve'?

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

Nice house! This article meets the GA criteria, although I think the lead is a tad short. Promoting JAGUAR  22:44, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
