Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden

[edit]
(

  • ... that the footpath around Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden is called the "Master's Walk"?
  • The ref is a picture of the information board at the garden, i took it myself, it isn't good enough quality for the article but sufficient for referencing i presume thumb|right|200px
    • I cropped the pic and put it into the article. Szzuk (talk) 09:25, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
  • This ref says The history of the Walled Garden almost certainly began well before 1830, when small-scale marl extraction created the ponds which later became a major feature of the Garden. Marl pits are shown on the 1829 Grappenhall Tithe Map in approximately the same places as they are found in the Walled Garden.

  • size and age ok, written neutrally. ALT1 is best hook (I'd ditch the other two). referenced and faithful to source. no copyvio. good to go Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 12:08, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, and did some editing to remove close paraphrasing and align the information with the source. A few of the refs are bald URLs; could you format them please? Besides primary refs and travel guides, do you have any independent book or magazine or newspaper sources for this subject? Yoninah (talk) 20:59, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
Hi, I'd say refs 2, 8, 10 and 11 are independent of the subject and not travel guides, ref 10 is a newspaper talking about tripadvisor but not actually a tripadvisor link. I had trouble with the formatting of ref 4, it is a picture I took, I think that is the bare URL? I struggled to format that. Szzuk (talk) 21:15, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
There are more refs on the web that I didn't use for example [1][2][3] Szzuk (talk) 21:26, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
  • @Szzuk: I formatted the refs for you. Aside from the Warrington Guardian, you have a press release and a lot of webpages from the garden itself. If you could add book or magazine sources, it would be appreciated. Yoninah (talk) 21:53, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
Hi, the first ref is from Cheshire Life, which is a paper print magazine, see here [4] Szzuk (talk) 21:59, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
I added a ref from Cheshire Life to the article. Szzuk (talk) 22:08, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
  • Yoninah, Szzuk, it's been nearly four weeks since the last post here; where does this nomination stand? BlueMoonset (talk) 15:13, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
  • I can't see anything wrong with it, so it requires other editors such as yourself to have a look and offer an opinion. Szzuk (talk) 15:23, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
I have formatted more refs and beefed up the article with more secondary sources. I believe it passes GNG now. We need another reviewer to check the added material against the DYK criteria and complete the review. Pinging original reviewer, Casliber. Yoninah (talk) 22:14, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
