Comments from Tim Riley edit
How could I not review this? Except that I have been through it most carefully and can find nothing of the least importance to suggest by way of improvement. You need to tidy up the inverted commas – no curly ones, please (MoS) – and I'm not sure "half way" should be two separate words, and perhaps the same goes for "night time". In the para that begins "The canal was closed permanently in 1924, but Riley continued working near the lock. The 1930 U.S. Census lists Riley as a canal watchman..." I might make the second "Riley" just "him". Those are all the suggestions I have for tweaking this excellent article, which in my view should do fine at GAN.

- @Tim riley: - Thank you for looking at Riley's Lock. I made the "halfway" and "nighttime" changes, plus substituted "him" for "Riley" where you recommended. A search on Google agreed with the changes for halfway and nighttime. Can you give me an example of a curly comma? The article was written in a Wikipedia sandbox (not a word processor), so I thought all the commas and apostrophes would be OK. TwoScars (talk) 15:07, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
- Just a couple or so of curly ones in the sources, which I've now fixed. Tim riley talk 16:15, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
