This article does not meet the good article criteria. My main concern is that the article is too short (about a fourth of what I would consider a minimum) and lack of sufficient referencing. Other issues:

  • The lead is far too short and does not summarize the article.
  • The history focuses on the county as a political entity. All geographic articles are expected to cover the area as a geographical whole, and include areas such as economics, population, community, politics etc. The history section is very sparse and contains for instance no newer history.
  • Is there an county government or the like? If so, this needs its own section. Sections should also be created for economics, transport, environment/nature and culture, at minimum.
  • The two lists should be incorporated into relevant sections. If large portions of the county are preserved, perhaps a separate section can be made with this, with descriptions as prose.
  • Cities needs to be converted into prose with a description, and possibly a table with area, population etc.
  • A single-link section is not permitted
  • Galleries are not permitted within this scope.
