Outcome
The article requires significant work on references, and as such I am going to have to fail the article. I'll provide a copy of the article bolding all areas lacking references, so that you can work on it. I'll also be happy to conduct the next GA review should you re-nominate, allowing you to skip some of the lengthy waiting time. If you have any questions feel free to ask me or WT:GAN. Thanks!  ★ ★ RetroLord★ ★  09:38, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

Review
I made a few edits to the lead to remove some content that was not mentioned elsewhere in the article.  ★ ★ RetroLord★ ★  09:32, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

"is the county seat of Washington County and the third-largest city in Arkansas" Would you consider reversing the sentence, to put "third-largest" first? Is it more important that the city is the county seat, or the third largest?  ★ ★ RetroLord★ ★  09:32, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

"75,102 at the 2011 estimate" We are straying a bit into recentism land here. I think the 2010 census is enough, especially for the lead.  ★ ★ RetroLord★ ★  09:32, 19 July 2013 (UTC)


 * I am willing to make changes you suggest in order to improve the article. The sentences you mention below have been fixed (I believe). Thanks for your time and efforts!  Brandonrush   Woo pig sooie  00:44, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
