Bedford Road Historic District

edit

Most of the buildings in the district

5x expanded by Daniel Case (talk). Self nominated at 18:54, 10 May 2014 (UTC).

  • Length and expansion date ok. But the hook is not supported in article ('neoclassical' is not mentioned). --Soman (talk) 11:02, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
It's linked from "classically-inspired" which is semantically the same thing. Daniel Case (talk) 11:49, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
After further work on the article, I have some ALTs:
ALT1: ... that when the houses in the Bedford Road Historic District (pictured) were advertised as being in Armonk, New York, it was the first time that name was used?
ALT2: ... that the Bedford Road Historic District (pictured) has been described as the first residential subdivision in Armonk, New York?
Note: Source for ALT1 is on pg. 11, note 12 of cited document. Daniel Case (talk) 23:29, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Strongly prefer ALT2. ALT1 makes my brain do funny things. Maury Markowitz (talk) 12:18, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

  • Needs a complete review. Details that are supposed to be checked in a review can be found at DYKReviewing guide. Daniel Case, you do good work. However, "Length and expansion date ok" is not a review. Before this passes, someone needs to do a complete review. — Maile (talk) 00:44, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
Whatevs. My life is not depending on this, as much as it's sort of amusing that no one's really dived in to do such a review of such a relatively straightforward article in the two weeks or so since I nominated this. Daniel Case (talk) 18:42, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
Har! Get used to it, the process is completely off the rails. Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:20, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

Date, length, newness, cites, all good to go. The hook is fine. Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:20, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
