Hi! I'm opening a Good Article Nomination review. Hoping to complete the review over the next couple of days. I'll be using the template below. Thanks! Ganesha811 (talk) 20:28, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Rate Attribute Review Comment
1. Well-written:
1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.
  • Lead is good.
  • In 'History", paragraph should be split into two or maybe 3 for readability. Good splitting point would be 'The park'?
  • Also, it should be clarified that the park in question is one that the riverwalk resides in? I'm actually not clear on this actually reading the article - are there bits of the park separate from the riverwalk? Are there parts of the Riverwalk not in the park? Clarify that relationship.
  • Add "a" before "splash pad" in 'Features'
  • Last paragraph of 'Features' has some awkward phrasing - rework first sentence especially.
1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
  • Pass. No issues.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
  • Pass. No issues.
2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
  • Some concern here. 5 of the sources are from Realize Bradenton, which helps run the riverwalk. Another source is the architectural firm which built it. I understand there may be few sources available for this topic but it would help to focus on the material from sources not so close to the topic. Newspaper sources are better - see some additional below.
  • Under 'Features', the bit about the Americans for the Arts impact calculator - is this reliable? Phrasing also falls very close to the source's words.
2c. it contains no original research.
  • Pass. No issues.
2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.
  • Partially assessed. Would be good to check against several of the Realize Bradenton sources especially - some of these phrasings seem perilously close to the source phrasings.
3. Broad in its coverage:
3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
  • Pass. No issues.
4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
  • Possible issue with neutrality, though minor - see comments above.
5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
  • Pass. No issues.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
  • Pass, no issues.
6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
  • Pass, no issues.
7. Overall assessment.
Thank you for the review, Ganesha811! I'm currently making revisions to the article and I'm hoping to get them added by the end of the weekend. Dorian has been messing up my workflow this past week. – The Grid (talk) 12:32, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The Grid, sounds good! Stay safe. Ganesha811 (talk) 03:19, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ganesha811, I won't be able to fix up the info for now. Instead of letting this hang beyond 7 days, you can fail the GA nomination. Thanks again for reviewing the article for me! – The Grid (talk) 13:02, 10 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The Grid, okay! Be sure to re-nominate it when you feel all the necessary improvements have been made. :) Ganesha811 (talk) 14:08, 10 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
