Hi! I'll be reviewing this article for GA status, and should have my full review up shortly. Dana boomer (talk) 19:22, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
Edinburgh Institution is a dab link

Done.

Early life and career, "In 1867 he was transferred to Toowoomba, which he managed" - Was he managing the town, or the bank branch in the town?

Yeah, the bank. Fixed.

Federation, "The second session of the Convention," This sentence gets a bit long and confusing - possibly would be better split into two?

Done.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

Overall, this is a very nice little article. A few prose niggles that I would like to see corrected, but once those are finished, the article should be good to go for GA status. Dana boomer (talk) 21:44, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review! I think I've addressed the issues. Frickeg (talk) 23:35, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK, everything looks good, so I'm passing the article to GA status. Nice work! Dana boomer (talk) 15:22, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
