GA review (see here for criteria) (see here for this contributor's history of GA reviews)
  1. It is reasonably well written:
    No problems with dub or dab links, however, checklink article shows one recently dead link.
Sigh. It went down seven days ago. Renewed.
  1. Copyvio tool is showing a yellow light, I suspect it's because of the quote but picking up a few other things too, namely similar phrasing on some sections ("damaged by a tug"; "Dunkirk, Calais, Antwerp, Ostend, Alderney, Bruges and the Netherlands, from a variety of home ports including Dover, Rochester, London, Lowestoft, Goole, Shoreham, Southampton and Newport." Suggest further rearranging some of these phrases.
They came up when I did a pre-nom check. I thought I had fixed them. I have now. Still a high number, but not due to any avoidable closeness, outside of the quote.
  1. It is factually accurate and verifiable:
    Source spotchecks Refs 9 and 13 are active and back up material in the article.
  2. It is broad in its coverage:
    Not Yet
    • "moving 150 tons of loose cargo at a time" -- whatever convert unit is best here would be helpful.
Convert template added to both instances of "tons".
    • "In 1900 there were over 2,000 Thames sailing barges in operation.[4]" -- I imagine these were in private individual employ, vs military, government or large companies? Just want to see if info is out there on it.
They were all in private ownership, which I have added. (it was in the source.) I can't find a source splitting the size of the owners. My feel from the sources is that most were owned by medium to large concerns, but there is no quantitative data on this.
    • World War II: "The rest of the conflict was spent doing war work.[9]" -- Any general idea what this work entailed? And was the boat doing this under private ownership or something else? Should be clear.
She remained privately owned and doing the same - more or less - as always. Which is why I didn't think to specify. Now specified.
    • Owners: Any way we could get that in a table? And are these dates that the boat was sold? Any info on any of the prices?
I had them in a table and it seemed less readable. I will revert to that if it is a deal breaker. I have clarified what the dates mean.
  1. It follows the neutral point of view policy:
    Pass No problems there.
  2. It is stable:
    Pass No problems there.
  3. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate:
    Pass Images are appropriately cited under CC licenses.
  4. Other:
    On Hold Pending a few fixes. —Ed!(talk) 01:54, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Ed!. Thanks for picking this up. I thought that it was going to languish forever. Your points above all addressed. Gog the Mild (talk) 05:16, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I think that works! Passing for GA now. —Ed!(talk) 15:35, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
