History of Milton Keynes

I would like help to make this FA in at least on portal:United Kingdom for 23 January 2007, the 40th anniversary of the foundation of the modern Milton Keynes in 1967. Help and advice welcome - might make Wikipedia FA in 2017!

The web citations all need to be changed to the long form style, which I am working on. --Concrete Cowboy 22:22, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

• Please see automated peer review suggestions here. Thanks, APR _t 23:23, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

The following suggestions were generated by a semi-automatic javascript program, and might not be applicable for the article in question.

• Please expand the lead to conform with guidelines at Wikipedia:Lead. The article should have an appropriate number of paragraphs as is shown on WP:LEAD, and should adequately summarize the article.^[?]  Done
• Per Wikipedia:Context and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates), months and days of the week generally should not be linked. Years, decades, and centuries can be linked if they provide context for the article.^[?]  Done
• See if possible if there is a free use image that can go on the top right corner of this article.^[?]  Done
• Avoid including galleries in articles, as per Wikipedia:Galleries. Common solutions to this problem include moving the gallery to a separate page, like Gallery of History of Milton Keynes.^[?]  Done
• There may be an applicable infobox for this article. For example, see Template:Infobox Biography, Template:Infobox School, or Template:Infobox City.^[?] (Note that there might not be an applicable infobox; remember that these suggestions are not generated manually) None that I knid find, have checked History of London and History of Bristol
• Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), there should be a non-breaking space -   between a number and the unit of measurement. For example, instead of 1km, use 1 km, which when you are editing the page, should look like: 1 km.^[?]  Done
• Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (numbers), when doing conversions, please use standard abbreviations: for example, miles -> mi, kilometers squared -> km², and pounds -> lb.^[?]  Done
• Per Wikipedia:Context and Wikipedia:Build the web, years with full dates should be linked; for example, link January 15, 2006.^[?]
• Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings), headings generally do not start with articles ('the', 'a(n)'). For example, if there was a section called ==The Biography==, it should be changed to ==Biography==.^[?] N/a
• Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings), avoid using special characters (ex: &+{}[]) in headings. N/a
• Per WP:WIAFA, this article's table of contents (ToC) may be too long- consider shrinking it down by merging short sections or using a proper system of daughter pages as per Wikipedia:Summary style.^[?]  Done
• Please provide citations for all of the {{fact}}s.  Done
• Please ensure that the article has gone through a thorough copyediting so that it exemplifies some of Wikipedia's best work. See also User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 1a.^[?]  Done
