Talk:Indiana Glass Company

First Sentence
Some parts of this article look a bit odd, but the first sentence seems to be the largest offender:

"Indiana Glass Company manufactured pressed, blown and hand-molded glassware and tableware for almost 100 years."

Would it be better written in the format of other Wikipedia articles about companies, such as:

"Indiana Glass Company is an American company best known for the manufacturing of glassware and tableware." -- Version for reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Indiana_Glass_Company&oldid=1100556316 Leafy46 (talk) 14:30, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Changed to "Indiana Glass Company was an American company that manufactured pressed, blown and hand-molded glassware and tableware for almost 100 years." It is important, from a glassmaking perspective, to have the pressed, blown, and hand-molded part in the sentence because these are different ways to manufacture glassware.

GA category?
, I see you had this listed under "Computing and engineering". I think it probably should be here instead, under "Businesses and organizations". I wouldn't do anything until Legobot comes through in a day or so and updates the GA oldid, but once that's done, if you think it should be moved, go ahead, and change the topic here in the GA template. If you move it before Legobot is finished with it the bot might throw a fit -- it's sensitive to things being just the way it expects.

 * No problem moving it to Businesses and organizations. Glass companies are somewhat odd. Fostoria Glass Company is in Art and architecture because of its products, while Hartford City Glass Company is in Social sciences and society because of its influence on the community. Indiana Glass Company has some info on the glassmaking process and an image showing glassmaking machinery from a patent, so I guessed that engineering might be appropriate. No problem using Businesses and organizations, and I will probably use that category for future glass company articles. Thanks for all your help. TwoScars (talk) 20:27, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

Spotchecks
, I realized after I promoted this article to GA that I should have done spotchecks on the sourcing. I've now done some and came up with one issue: -- Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 15:45, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
 * FN 37 cites "Tank furnaces were essentially large brick pot furnaces with multiple workstations. A tank furnace is more efficient than a pot furnace, but more costly to build." I may be missing it but I don't see anything in the source about cost relative to pot furnaces.
 * , Thanks for your continued interest in the glass industry! That is one of those things that is obvious to someone from the industry, but maybe not so much for others. To solve the problem, I moved footnote 37 up one sentence, and added a new citation to the last sentence (A tank furnace is more efficient than a pot furnace, but more costly to build.) The additional source, a magazine article, says (in the magazine at the bottom of page 56): "The tank, which constitutes about 49 per cent of the total number of active furnaces, has proven to be superior in economy, regularity and uniformity of working and durability. The first cost, however, of the tank is far more costly than that of the pot furnace." Thanks TwoScars (talk) 19:34, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for fixing it -- yes, I guessed it would be obvious to you, but it wasn't to me! Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 20:18, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
