Observations
This is a GA Reassessment: so a truncated set of observations...
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * Page created 23 May 2005
 * Page has 686 edits by 234 editors
 * 90 day page views = 3,602 with average of 40 visitors daily
 * 16 edits reverted
 * Page has 39 watchers.
 * Internet Archive Bot has been on page twice - last visit tagging no links as dead;
 * Cluebot NG has not visited, indicating no vandalism; page considered stable


 * 1) It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 11 images on article
 * all fair use rationales accepted, images have appropriate captioning


 * 1) Overall:
 * Basically, this page is in a Good Article shape and form. However, this page records the restoration of a closed narrow gauge railway in North Devon, UK, and should be updated on a regular basis. With 39 watchers, this should not be a difficult task. Below are some observations that may merit attention - and possibly inclusion - in various sections, such as Present, Restoration and Prospects.


 * There is a citation needed tag on the twinning with the Walhalla Goldfields Railway. Consider this link.
 * Chelfham Station restoration has won a National Railway Heritage Award.


 * Parracombe Halt has been purchased.


 * Bratton Fleming Station has been purchased.


 * Planning the rebuild of the railway might be an inclusion


 * Killington Lane to Blackmoor and Wistlandpound may serve as a useful reference


 * The challenges of rebuilding Woody Bay to Lynton are also documented.

The greater sense is if these matters are attended to, the article will retain GA status. --Whiteguru (talk) 04:30, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
