Observations

[edit]
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
  1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
  1. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  1. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  • Neutral Point of View preserved.
  1. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  • Page created on 11 March 2017
  • Page has 202 edits from 21 editors
  • 90 day views = 232 pageviews with average of 3 per day.
  1. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  • Sidney Howe Short 1880.jpg = is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1926.
  • Gold and Stock Telegraph Company 1874 ad.jpg = is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1926.
  1. Overall:
  • This fellow had over 500 patents, and was the founder (electrically) of street railways, master controllers for trams (street cars), and involved in Brush, General Electric, Westinghouse and Dick Kerr - all famous names in the origin of electric railways. A very succinct, short article, given this fellow's achievements.
  • Minor corrections noted above. Once these are resolved, GA status will be passed.       -- Whiteguru (talk) 06:04, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Whiteguru: All issues have been addressed. Can you take another look. Thanks.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 15:50, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
