 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * Some of the vegetation that you mention has articles but is not linked. Please link the ones that have articles.
 * You mention the L.D.S. but do not explain what it means.
 * St George should be linked once in the lead, and the first mention in the body of the article.
 * A few of the citations are missing the publisher location: #4, 7, 16, 29. Citation #5 and 17 does not give a page number.
 * In the further reading section, two of the book titles are not correctly capitalised and one is missing the publisher location.
 * Everything in this category has been fixed. The Utahraptor Talk/Contribs 02:58, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * There are still no page numbers for Cite #17.
 * Fixed. The Utahraptor Talk/Contribs 04:08, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): No dead links b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Lots of books were used to prepare the article; that is good. I am unable to personally review the books as I do not have access to them, but examination online makes me feel they can be considered reliable sources.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * Is there any information available about the Anasazi that lived in the area? You start the article with the arrival of the silver miners, but it would broaden the scope of the article if you could give some details about the original inhabitants of the area.
 * I notice on the talk page that you were going to try to find info on the history of uranium mining in the area. Were you able to locate any material on this topic?
 * Yes, it's at the end of the "Decline" section. I'll work on researching the Anasazi history of the area. The Utahraptor Talk/Contribs 03:00, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I've written as much as I can right now. I couldn't find much on the web, but once I have time to go to the library, it should be easier to do research. The Utahraptor Talk/Contribs 03:24, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * That's great. When do you think you can go?
 * Possibly tomorrow, but I'm not entirely sure. The Utahraptor Talk/Contribs 04:08, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * If not tomorrow or Friday, it might have to wait till next week because of the holidays.
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):
 * b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * Photos all are properly licensed etc. We have one instance where the text is squished between two pics. Can the layout be improved?
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail: I will watchlist and look for the requested improvements. -- Diannaa  (Talk) 01:02, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
