Barretville, Tennessee

[edit]
  • ... that the community of Barretville, Tennessee is locally known for its large population of domesticated peacocks?
  • ALT1:... that in 1930, burglars attempted to break into a bank's vault in Barretville, Tennessee using blowtorches, and accidentally set the adjoining general store alight?

  • Date OK, but the article is not long enough; I make it 1,190 characters, including spaces. In addition the online source does not confirm that the community is "locally known" for its peacocks. ALT1 is not possible to verify. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 17:33, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
  • 2200 characters now. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:59, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
  • This article is new enough and long enough. I agree with Peter I. Vardy that the fact backing the original hook is not supported by the reference. ALT1 is cited to a book source and is accepted in good faith. I detected no neutrality or copyright issues. No QPQ review needed here. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:36, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
