Trivia
[edit]In accordance with the Wikipedia Policy on trivia sections, I have removed the 'Trivia' subsection which just contained one point and I did not feel could be merged properly into the article as it wasn't really relavent to the article. Mojo29 21:44, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Checking against GA criteria
[edit]- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
The lead does not fully summarize the article, the history section is in adequately summarized.- Is that better? -mattbuck (Talk) 20:50, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
- Ok, that will do. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:33, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
- Is that better? -mattbuck (Talk) 20:50, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
- Prose is good, I made a few minor copy-edits.
- a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- Well referenced, no sign of OR, spotchecks show that citations support statements.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
The incidents section appears to be of no encyclopaedic value. Otherwise good coverage.- I accept the incidents section is not broad coverage, since I have not searched through 100 years of newspapers to try and find references to the station. But I think that dead bodies are quite likely relevant. -mattbuck (Talk) 22:12, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, but are these incidents of any real relevance? Would they be included in an article on say London Paddington station? Or are they merely things that happened at Redland, but could have happened anywhere. How are they relevant to this railway station? I shall ask for a second opinion. Jezhotwells (talk) 03:45, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
- Sod it, section nuked. -mattbuck (Talk) 00:59, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
