Preliminary notes

[edit]
  • This has some stuff about a James Swoveland affirming to have ridden in Lambert's car in 1891, that might warrant mention.
  • checkY: Great, no action required.
  • exclamation mark : Not necessary but might be worth looking at.
  • ☒N: Needs to be fixed.

Copyvio

[edit]
  • checkY Earwig's detector says everything is fine.

Stability

[edit]
  • checkY Article is quite stable. Has not been the subject of any controversy except from an IP address repeatedly adding stuff like "where he learned how to fly" and "harold".

POV

[edit]
  • exclamation mark  Minor amounts of general fluff like "That was a good thing, since", not a big deal.

Media

[edit]
  • checkY All images are public-domain, clearly illustrative, and cool.
  • exclamation mark  What the heck is going on with the front left wheel in this image?

Focus / scope / coverage / completeness

[edit]
  • ☒N There were about 300 horseless carriages built up to 1895,[4] but Lambert was the first with a functional working automobile that he created in 1891 Huh?
  • ☒N Lambert's father was the president, and he was the treasurer and general manager Lambert was the treasurer and general manager, or his father was?

Prose / MoS / ref check

[edit]
  • checkY Ref 1 looks good.
  • checkY Ref 2 looks good.
  • checkY Ref 3 looks good.
  • checkY Ref 4 looks good.
  • checkY Ref 5 looks good.
  • checkY Ref 6 looks good.
  • checkY Ref 7 isn't accessible for me but I will try to get a hold of it somewhere. It isn't very load-bearing, so I will AGF.
  • checkY Ref 8 looks good.
  • checkY Ref 9 looks good.
  • checkY Ref 10 looks good.
  • checkY Refs 11 - 18 look good.
  • ☒N Ref 19 is "newspaper clip "Oldest Resident of Ohio City" "Death Claims 1st Passenger of gasoline auto"". No year, no publication, no author, no link... :(
  • checkY Ref 20 looks good.
  • checkY Ref 21 looks good.
  • exclamation mark  Ref 22 could do with a link.
  • checkY Ref 23 looks good.
