A new page

[edit]

Have added a lot of data and a pic of the loco - will find one of NC2 in "Public toilet" guise.

would appreciate someone having a go at refining it, though I do disagree with the ratings above- put up not long after I wrote this page. Given that the article is properly referenced, it smacks of the reviewer not knowing about the loco, and not being familiar with other pages in WikiSulzer55 (talk) 10:27, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reviews are generally done quickly because there are too many articles too review and not enough reviewers. That said few articles are above start class, in this case the "quality of the prose" is "distinctly unencyclopedic" (see Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/Assessment), in particular it is full of one sentence paragraphs. Please note there is also a "Current requests for assessment" section at Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/Assessment.--Grahame (talk) 01:04, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Then the issue is quality v quantity - is it not better to review fewer articles, give better feedback and gain an overall improvement in Wiki than to lobb irrelevant and meaningless logos without backing up that logo on pages.

In the case of this article, it calls together just about all reliable sources, references them and makes a reasonably readable article. Your logos imply it is crap! Sulzer55 (talk) 11:41, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody said it was crap, just that much more work is needed to make it fully compliant with WP:MOS and therfore eligible for consideration at WP:GAN or WP:FAC, which is the point of these ratings.--Grahame (talk) 01:23, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
