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

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   Much of the writing in the article is awkward or just too informal, and does not meet the project standards listed in the MOS. Later sections also have content problems; e.g. the "Food" section is a listing of local restaurants instead of an overview of food culture, which violates WP:NOTDIR.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):

   The repeated use of unreliable database sources (DataCenterResearch, Statistical Atlas) is problematic, as well as the general formatting of citations, which are all over the place. Many paragraphs lack appropriate inline citations, including the demographics tables.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   A lot of standard neighborhood content is missing, including transportation access, civic facilities (healthcare, services, utilities), architecture, and major employers.

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):

   The gallery is unnecessary and deprives the rest of the article of images.

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   I don't feel like this is up to GA standards and would need quite a lot of work to make it there. The next nominator should try for a peer review or other outlet before coming to GAN. SounderBruce 05:55, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
