General

You appear to have a dead link.

Replaced.— Rod ^talk 09:10, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

lead

It seems quite short given the size of the article. I think it needs expanding if it's to be a proper summary of the article

I have expanded the lead to bring in some of the other aspects covered in the article to provide a better summary.— Rod ^talk 22:01, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Titles of publications (like The Independent) should be italicised

I've italicised The Independent but couldn't spot any others.— Rod ^talk 09:10, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

newspaper= parameter now used which should resolve these.— Rod ^talk 10:54, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Government

I don't think a PDF from the parish council's website is a reliable source for Cheddar's village status—you'll need a secondary source
- I've added a county council source for this, but not sure if more/better are needed. Thryduulf (talk) 17:46, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The source for Axbridge's town status is a tourist website and doesn't look reliable to me
- Other, more reliable sources added.
Most of the second paragraph is sourced to the minutes of a parish council meeting—not a good source for the council's responsibilities
It had previously been part of Axbridge Rural District, which is responsible...?

Reworded & clarified old & new authorities and their responsibilities.— Rod ^talk 09:10, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The whole of the stuff on Somerset County Council is sourced to a page on the fire brigade's website which doesn't even mention it
The penultimate paragraph is completely unsourced

Another editor has added a range of secondary sources to this paragraph.— Rod ^talk 22:01, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Geography

Citation 36 doesn't look like a reliable source

Replaced with British Geological Survey which is more reliable.— Rod ^talk 10:54, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I put a {{fact}} tag under the SSSI heading, the material isn't covered by the citation at the end of the paragraph

Ref added. Jaguar (talk) 12:16, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What is citation 43? If it's a book, it needs an ISBN

I've asked for more info from the editor who added this reference.— Rod ^talk 09:10, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This was a self published book with no ISBN - I have replaced it with the SSSI citation sheet which had the same info.— Rod ^talk 11:25, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Last sentence under SSSI needs a ref

Refs added for National Trust & Somerset Wildlife Trust.— Rod ^talk 10:54, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Demography

This is a very short section. Can the material not be merged elsewhere?

Landmarks

I've left another {{fact}} tag at the end of the section

Ref added. Jaguar (talk) 12:10, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Transport

Another fact tag

How far is cheddar from the M5?

Added— Rod ^talk 10:54, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

All in all, a very nice article into which a lot of work has gone. Most of the points are minor and can hopefully be addressed relatively easily. I'll put the GA nomination on hold to allow a chance to make the fixes. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:36, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In light of the progress made over the last few days, I'm happy to pass this GA review. Congratulations and excellent work. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 19:02, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
