- I'll review this. RoySmith (talk) 18:25, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
- Long enough
- New enough
- Earwig is over-quota on searches, but no problems seen when run in links-only mode.
- I don't see any problems with NPOV, BLP, etc.
- QPQ done.
- The sentence "1975, Erlewine had moved to Big Rapids and opened a new shop, Dan Erlewine’s Guitar Hospital" is copied from https://acousticguitar.com/; that needs to get rewritten.
- The hook fact is in the article and cited.
this just needs the copied sentence rewritten. RoySmith (talk) 18:32, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
- @RoySmith: Thanks much for the review. I rewrote the sentence. Also I see someone helped the article by cropping an image for the infobox. I actually emailed the subject to ask for him to upload an image and he replied twice. I told him he would have to be the uploader of the image and he never followed through.

RoySmith (talk) 23:03, 4 July 2024 (UTC)- BTW, I've had the same experience with images more than once. It's easy to have somebody say, "Sure, you can use my photo", but once you try to shepherd them through the upload process, you lose them. It's a shame that our upload procedure is so cumbersome we drive people away who would otherwise be willing to give us good images that we need. RoySmith (talk) 01:02, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
