Hello,. I'll be reviewing all the Plankinton articles within the current GAN Backlog Drive and will use the checklist above to register progress. Hope to provide some feedback soon. No Great Shaker (talk) 04:34, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

On hold
I have a few problems here which need to be resolved before I can do a full review:


 * First, a cn was added only this morning by another editor so that must be addressed.
 * ✅ --Doug Coldwell (talk) 12:54, 1 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Second, the Zimmermann source which is cited several times is a dead link so I need verification by other means.
 * --Doug Coldwell (talk) 12:54, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * ✅ Replaced with 1979 HUD Environmental Impact Statement.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 15:07, 1 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Third, in the Construction section, the clause unfortunately, Elizabeth's husband-to-be married another woman in September 1887 needs attention because "unfortunately" is a weasel word and the clause is out of context there.
 * --Doug Coldwell (talk) 12:54, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * ✅ Removed unfortunate sentence. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 15:14, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

These points are confirmed in the criteria above, but I'm remaining neutral on the majority of criteria for now. If these difficulties can be resolved, I'll be happy to continue the review which goes on hold for the time being.

No rush, by the way. If it takes more than seven days to sort out, no problem. No Great Shaker (talk) 07:38, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Issues have been addressed. Can you take another look. Thanks.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 15:14, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

Passed
The article is fine now,. I just took out the EL section because it was empty.

I do like the photos in this one – very atmospheric and nostalgic. It's difficult to say from old photos if it really was an "ugly behemoth" but perhaps it was out of style with its surroundings. I noticed the comment "bad Victorian taste" and that is something we often see and think over here. Victorian buildings tend to deserve the word "piles" and are not so much bad taste as tasteless. Georgian architecture, on the other hand, is almost unfailingly high quality.

Anyway, that's three Plankintons down and one to go. Well done. All the best and keep safe. No Great Shaker (talk) 11:25, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
