Hi Rcsprinter123, just started to take a look at this one. I'll continue looking at it but for now I note the final two sentences in the article aren't referenced? - Dumelow (talk) 12:24, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
- 5x expansion from 14 September confirmed; barring the above citations seem to be in order, though preferably there should be page numbers for Cook and the Heritage Statement. Is the heritage statement not available online, perhaps as part of the planning application? I didn't spot any issues with overly close paraphrasing; hooks are interesting; I have some issues with verifying the hooks, for ALT1 I can't see that the 2014 Yorkshire Evening Post article verifies that the refurbishment was complete at the time of the fire (indeed much of the first paragraph of the "Fire and redevelopment" section does not appear in the source and needs to be checked); for ALT0 the article states that Channel 4 have yet to move in? - Dumelow (talk) 06:58, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for taking a look, Dumelow. Last sentences now covered by Yorkshire Post source. The heritage statement and officer's report are available online, but do not have a stable link; they have to be accessed through the planning portal. This was explained on a hidden note, but I've moved it into the citation to make access easier for readers. Unfortunately, said portal seems to be down tonight, but I think that a lot of the fire paragraph and ALT1 is sourced from the heritage statement on there. I will have to try again tomorrow to source that better and get page numbers. As for ALT0, I don't have anything up-to-date enough to say Channel 4 have moved in, but I would say being confirmed by multiple sources as anchor tenant counts as becoming the headquarters for the purposes of the hook? Alternatively, publication of the DYK could hold until C4 are using it. Rcsprinter123 (comment) 00:00, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
- Hi Rcsprinter123, I think that's OK re: the report but are you able to add page numbers, I imagine it's rather lengthy? For ALT0 we could just change it to "will become the national headquarters of Channel 4" - Dumelow (talk) 08:24, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
- I'm sorry to say that Public Access, the planning portal, still seems to be down for essential maintenance so I can't get that paragraph sorted out yet. I support the change to ALT0, if we have "will soon become". Rcsprinter123 (dialogue) 21:41, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
- Hi Dumelow. With it being back online, I've taken a look at the source added an extra citation on the paragraph covering the parts which use it, and added the page number range. Rcsprinter123 (relate) 22:07, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
