GA Review
[edit]GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- In the Early years section, "By 1876", "In 1881", "In 1885", "by 1886", and "in 1891" it would be best if there was a comma placed after 1876, 1881, 1885, 1886, 1891. Same thing for the Friedlander era: 1893–1915, Franklin, Coffee and Stern eras: 1917–1965, Broude era: 1966–1989, and Chester era: 1989–present sections.
- Check. Also, User:clariosophic makes a good point about "formally"/"formerly" for the First Hebrew Congregation of Oakland, which would have to be fixed. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 14:06, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, it was a good point. I've clarified that now in the text, and added a source backing it up. Jayjg (talk) 02:08, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
