First review completed
  • All three articles are new enough and long enough, all are well cited throughout, and no sign of copyright problems. Hook is good and offline citation for it accepted AGF. They need a second review, given the Gibraltar measures. Moonraker (talk) 06:49, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
Second review completed
  • In general, length and creation date are fine. I see no promotional content or conflict of interest. Two minor concerns.
  • The phrase "Mouth of Fire" is only used in the King's Lines article.
  • I've clarified this, as it was confusingly worded; it refers to all of the Lines (King's, Queen's, and Prince's). Prioryman (talk) 21:22, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
  • The clickable map is so large that it overlaps the other two images on my screen. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:35, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
Thanks, could you tell me what resolution you are using on your monitor so that I can try to replicate this? Prioryman (talk) 07:49, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
Not knowing much about computers, I can't. However if I click menu on the monitor it mentions 1289x1024 and 75 hz. Does that help? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:29, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
Yes it does - thanks. I have a browser add-on that allows me to replicate displays in a number of sizes. It'll take me a few days to sort this out as the map is very tricky to do. I'll drop you a line when it's sorted so that you can have another look at it then. Prioryman (talk) 20:47, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
I've changed the map size - see if it works for you now. Prioryman (talk) 21:22, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Thank you, that's fine. All criteria met and this hook is ready to go! Cwmhiraeth (talk) 04:57, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
