GA Review
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.''

Hi, I am reviewing this article for GA. I have been through the article and copy edited a little. In a few places I changed the wording for clarity or to reflect the sources more clearly. I added – for ranges, per MoS. The article is good, and as I know the area, interesting. I have one comment at this point. &mdash; Mattisse (Talk) 01:32, 3 February 2009 (UTC) &mdash; Mattisse (Talk) 01:32, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comments
 * I think the "Wine" section is given undue weight in the article. It is the longest, by far of all the sections under "Culture", more so than "Historical sites" and "Sports and recreation".
 * I notice on the talk page that someone mentioned "Geology". The area is very interesting geologically and since you mention the gold and the Oregon Caves National Monument you might be able to work in something about the geology. (I see your comment that it would not work in the article, and that may be true.)
 * I adjustedd the wine section. I kind of a had a mini article for Foris Vineyards shoehorned into the CJ article.  I spun it out and left a summary.
 * I'd like to leave out the geology stuff. I think it's a bit to technical to warrant inclusion.  I've searched pretty hard for more layman terms info unsuccessfully.  If it's a sticking point, I can try some more. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 01:55, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
 * It's not a sicking point. I lived near there for a while and became very interested in the geology, but as you say, it probably does not belong in the town article. &mdash; Mattisse (Talk) 02:12, 3 February 2009 (UTC)f
 * I grew up in CJ. If it's too personal, I understand, but where did you live? - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 02:18, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I go frequently to the country north and west of Eagles Point, not far from the Rogue River. Its in the mountains and there are a variety igneous rocks in the creek beds and Indian artifacts. It is magical. &mdash; Mattisse (Talk) 02:25, 3 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment
 * All the references need to have a publisher. If there is no publisher, then give the website. For example, Golfing has no publisher. &mdash; Mattisse  (Talk) 02:25, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Eagle Point is a nice area. I have a friend who grew up there without electricity (although he has since moved to Eugene).  I think I fixed the refs. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 03:02, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
