GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
- Is it reasonably well written?
- A. Prose is "clear and concise", without copyvios, or spelling and grammar errors:
- I did not see any copyvios in the online articles, or in the one book cited to which I have online access. The other books I'm accepting AGF on the coyvio issue. Spelling and grammar check out. My only complaint is that I didn't understand the significance of Cambridge being surrounded by the steamers. The one book that I looked at through G-books said that it is well known that once a boat is surrounded by steamers, it basically hasn't a chance of winning. Perhaps write that into the article, so that the significance is more clear?--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 18:17, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
