Having worked on it, I have nominated this article for GA status. Comments welcome. Jezhotwells ( talk) 19:26, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
After an initial review, this article appears to stand a reasonable change of making GA, i.e, it is not going to be 'Quick Failed'.
However, a few of the paragraphs seem to be unreferenced, or very sparsely referenced, i.e. non-compliant with WP:Verify; and there may be some missing information. So, I suspect that I will put the WP:GAN On Hold so that they can be addressed. These 'problems' do not seem to be particularly extensive; and details will follow later. Pyrotec ( talk) 13:45, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
By preference, I'm leaving my comments on the WP:Lead until almost last.
As stated above, this article is at or about GA-level so in this section I'm only really mentioning points that I consider need some attention. Sorry I'm only giving the constructive criticism here, and failing to mention all the good points. The bad points can be summarised as breadth of Scope and verification (or lack thereof).
As forecast at the start, I'm putting the article On Hold to provide time for these points to be addressed.
I might have missed some points and I might and got some wrong, if you disgree we can discuss it here; otherwise this is what I think is needed for GA. Pyrotec ( talk) 19:47, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
The article has been considerably improved in scope over the last few days. Pyrotec ( talk) 19:35, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
A wide-ranging article on the History of British.
Congratulations on the quality of the article and your work over the last few days. I'm happy to award this article GA-status. Pyrotec ( talk) 19:35, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
There appears to be a lack of history between the 3rd and 8th centuries. Is this possibly through lack of evidence of settlement or occupation following the withdrawal of the Romans? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.53.204.196 ( talk) 15:18, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
The Post Office Directory listing [1] has a few pages of background info which could be quoted in the article. -- Trevj ( talk) 15:11, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
