Hi! I'll be reviewing this article for GA status, and should have my full review up shortly. Dana boomer ( talk) 19:22, 25 October 2012 (UTC) reply

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b ( MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   • Edinburgh Institution is a dab link

   • Done.

   • Early life and career, "In 1867 he was transferred to Toowoomba, which he managed" - Was he managing the town, or the bank branch in the town?

   • Yeah, the bank. Fixed.

   • Federation, "The second session of the Convention," This sentence gets a bit long and confusing - possibly would be better split into two?

   • Done.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c ( OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

Overall, this is a very nice little article. A few prose niggles that I would like to see corrected, but once those are finished, the article should be good to go for GA status. Dana boomer ( talk) 21:44, 25 October 2012 (UTC) reply

OK, everything looks good, so I'm passing the article to GA status. Nice work! Dana boomer ( talk) 15:22, 26 October 2012 (UTC) reply
