Winchester Cathedral

Nominator(s): Bellminsterboy ( talk) 12:04, 10 October 2021 (UTC) reply

This article is about Winchester Cathedral. It is the longest medieval cathedral in the world, and the article has been substantially expanded and rewritten from the ground up by myself in the last month. It contains a wealth of information, all correctly sourced from reliable sources. Bellminsterboy ( talk) 12:04, 10 October 2021 (UTC) reply

Hi Bellminsterboy. I would suggest withdrawing and taking this particular article through GAN or PR first, as in my opinion it's still a ways off of the FA criteria. There are some unaddressed {{ citation needed}} tags, and other areas where citations are lacking. The article relies heavily on the cathedral's own website, which is not an independent source. The formatting of the citations is inconsistent and some are incomplete. Nikkimaria ( talk) 13:34, 10 October 2021 (UTC) reply

Oppose and suggesting withdrawal (and peer review). Not quite ready - there's some uncited text that should be addressed, the lead isn't sufficient, and it relies too heavily on sources published by the church or related parties. Needs further work before being ready for FAC. Hog Farm Talk 13:59, 10 October 2021 (UTC) reply

Coord note -- Hi Bellminsterboy, I'm going to archive this but don't be discouraged, pls take on board the comments of these experienced reviewers. As well as (or after) GAN and PR, you could consider the FAC mentoring scheme. Cheers, Ian Rose ( talk) 14:11, 10 October 2021 (UTC) reply
