I shall be reviewing this article against the Good Article criteria, following its nomination for Good Article status.

Disambiguations: none found.

Linkrot: two found and tagged.[1] Jezhotwells (talk) 19:18, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Checking against GA criteria

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):
"The station was originally built, as the name suggests, to serve passengers for Clevedon, who would travel on by road. " I don't see how the name Yatton suggests this. Perhaps add "as originally named". Done
Fixed. -mattbuck (Talk) 21:03, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

~~There are a number of stray single sentences, which should be consolidated into paragraphs.~~
Better? -mattbuck (Talk) 21:12, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I can still see several stray sentences. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:39, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
There is not a single lone sentence left that I can see. -mattbuck (Talk) 22:50, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Generally prose is good and apart from the points above, compliant with key elements of the MoS.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Two dead links found as noted above.
I have fixed the SCRP one, but have not done the other - I think this is a temporary problem with APCOA's website, as the link is still listed when you search for Yatton, but redirects to their homepage. A brief check of other car parks also revealed the same behaviour. -mattbuck (Talk) 21:03, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:39, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Otherwise references well formatted, appear to be RS, no evidence of OR, spotchecks support statements.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
~~Good coverage, but not sure if the Incidents section is necessary. These are minor incidents, not of any encyclopaedic nature.~~ Done
Not entirely happy about removing it, but I accept they're fairly minor. -mattbuck (Talk) 21:03, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
Fair and unbiased.
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
Stable
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):
Images from Commons, correctly tagged and licensed and captioned.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
On hold for seven days for above issues to be addressed. Jezhotwells (talk) 19:32, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks for the fixes, I am happy to list this as a good article. Jezhotwells (talk) 03:24, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
