I will review. Pyrotec (talk) 16:21, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

Initial comments

This appears to be quite a good article, as a whole well referenced and well illustrated. However, as a potential GA, its virtually unreferenced in places: sufficient references seem to be available within the article, they just aren't be used as citations in some sections. I will undoubtedly return to this point later.

I'm now going to review the article in depth section by section, but leaving the WP:Lead until last. At this point I'm mostly concentrating on "problems", so if a section is good or OK, I may not mention it until the final part of this review. Pyrotec (talk) 21:15, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

• Current funicular -

• Y Pyrotec (talk) 20:50, 12 October 2010 (UTC) - This section is unreferenced.
• Y Pyrotec (talk) 20:50, 12 October 2010 (UTC) - I would certainly expect to see citations for named designers and named companies.

• Early part of History and its subsection Chronology -

• These two section/subsection are unreferenced.
• I suspect that this summarises information provided elsewhere in the article, so there could be scope for reusing existing citations.

• • Origins -

• • Looks OK apart from the last paragraph which is uncited. I suspect that the information came from an existing citation - so it needs to be appended to the last paragraph.

• • First renovation, 1931 -

• • Looks OK apart from the first paragraph which is uncited. I suspect that the information came from an existing citation - so it needs to be appended to the first paragraph.

...to be continued. 21:28, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

• • Second renovation, 1991 -
  • Generally looks OK. The first and third paragraphs aught to have uncitations.

• The rest of the article looks fine. At this point I'm putting the review On Hold for the above comments to be attended to. Pyrotec (talk) 19:42, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

It's been a couple weeks, so at this point I would fail since these unreferenced areas still exist. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 01:52, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

I've been on holiday, so I've not been active; but yes, I'm failing it. Pyrotec (talk) 17:16, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

I've been taking an extended and unexpected Wikibreak, had I known I would not have submitted this at the time I did. So sorry for that; I'll try to address your comments then resubmit it. (I was riding on it two days ago and got a few new pictures, especially one of the interior which may be worth adding, though it's not particularly interesting as a picture in itself). Sorry for not being around. Si Trew (talk) 17:23, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
