 * Symbol question.svg The article is new enough, long enough and properly sourced, with no issues of neutrality. Earwig rates this source as a potential close paraphrasing. The hook is within length and potentially interesting. While the Olmstead Brothers portion of the hook is sourced in the article, the statement in the hook "first project of the newly formed Union County parks commission" does not have a source in the article. I might have found this source from the NPS in a superficial search, but please confirm. A source in the article for the second clause of the hook and a QPQ are what stands before approval of this well-done article. Alansohn (talk) 17:36, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
 * QPQ done. Don't know where I saw "first", so have cut that part of the hook. Did some slight rewording on the one source to address paraphrasing. Bare urls fixed. Djflem (talk) 17:19, 23 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg With the QPQ done and ALT1 added, the hook is ready to go. I struck out ALT0, as the "first" is unsourced. If the claim of first project can be sourced, I'd switch my preference to ALT0. Alansohn (talk) 16:58, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
