The James Davis (printer) article, (a Good Article) about the founder of colonial North Carolina's first printer, and publisher of North Carolina's first newspaper is currently undergoing an FA review.

I was just wondering what people thought about the idea of relisting this article as a " Good Article" nominee. It has been almost 15 years since it was delisted from the title and it has certainly a better article from then. All opinions are welcome but the main question I'm asking is do you think it's ready to be nominated again? Thanks!
