  • I'm going to struggle with this: it's so short that I will find it hard to classify it, no matter how good, as a good article. But I'll review anyway.
  • Is there a map available? It's going to be very hard for most of us to visualise where this is without one.
  • "Ireland" is it really "the Republic of Ireland"?
  • " the Civil Parish of " no need for either to be capitalised.
  • Is Tullaghobegly worthy of a red link?
  • There should be a hatnote at Clady River directing people here if they didn't mean that particular river...
  • "Bunbeg Quay" don't part-link formal names.
  • "is effectively an" what is "effectively" bringing to this encyclopedia?
  • "crosses the Clady River near its source, crossing" repetitive use of "cross" here.
  • "runs alongside the Clady River, this road running along" likewise "runs/running... along/alongside"
  • "the E.S.B. built" who? Expand.
  • "The power station, officially called Clady Power Station" you don't need to repeat "The power station..."
  • " A 'canal' was " why in quotes?
  • "Gweedore Weir" see above re: part-links.
  • "The 'spent water' from" whaaat? why in quotes??
  • "This power station, which was built between 1954 and 1959, " you already said it was built in the 1950s. And why "This", not just "The"?
  • Bare URLs will suffer from WP:LINKROT so fix that.
  • Are there any more geographical-specific categories which can be considered, like Category:Geography of County Donegal?

For me, it's too short for a GA. But if you address these issues and find some more material, I'll re-consider. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 17:16, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Laggan Boy I think it's best if I close this off given the rate of progress on the other GAN of yours I'm reviewing. Unless you have a better idea? It's been 10 days here. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 07:28, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No, that sounds fine. Thank you once again for taking the time to review this. I'll try and add more information to the article. Thanks again. Laggan Boy (talk) 08:31, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, no problem. Perhaps best to work (and nominate) one thing at a time if you're particularly busy. But in any case, the comments are here for when you do get the time. Cheers! The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 09:08, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Good man. And thank-you once again. 😁 Laggan Boy (talk) 14:22, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And, as regards Ireland, when I use the term 'Ireland' I always mean Ireland, the entire country of 32 counties. But I never 'blue link' it as it seems to be too controversial. When I specifically mean the Twenty-Six Counties, I always use the term Republic of Ireland. Laggan Boy (talk) 14:27, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
