The name of this article just had to be changed from Butterfly zoo to Butterfly house. No facility calls itself a butterfly zoo. I've begun a rewrite with additional references. I intend to create a list article that will contain most of the current content, which is really just a list at this point. Contact me on my talk page if you see any problems.
All of the references appear in the list, which only indicate that the butterfly houses exist. What's lacking are references that corroborate the prose of the article (i.e. History and Activities). These are required to prevent any personal opinions or original research from encroaching. --Animalparty-- ( talk) 03:03, 20 October 2014 (UTC)
The following checklist is posted with the intent of determining whether this article meets the six B-Class criteria:
References
Is the article is suitably referenced, with inline citations? Does it have has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged?
Scope
Does the article reasonably cover the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies? Does it contain a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing?
Layout and organization
Does the article has a defined structure? Is the content organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind?
Well written
Is the article reasonably well-written? Does the prose contain no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly?
Supporting materials
Does the article contain supporting materials where appropriate? Illustrations? Diagrams? Infobox?
Understandable
Does the article present its content in an appropriately understandable way? Is it is written with as broad an audience in mind as possible? Does the article incorrectly assume unnecessary technical background OR are technical terms explained or avoided where possible.
Input anyone?
I've just moved this article to a new title - the old title ("Butterfly house (conservatory)") was ill-formed by most Wikipedia standards. The usual guideline for when a subject has two names is to give the article the more commonly used name and to create a redirect from the alternative name. This also required moving the former "Butterfly house" article to the more appropriate "Butterfly house (disambiguation)". Grutness... wha? 01:52, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
