I'm nominating this article for featured article because I think it's a good candidate for featured article status. ~NeonFire372~ (talk) 21:32, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose This article will not get by without a lot of hard work. I would not pass it as a Good Article. Only two references for the entire article? It needs more. Gary King (talk) 05:47, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose: unreferenced, short sections. MOJSKA   666  (msg) 13:44, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose: Not enough references and this link: The Express (weekly newspaper, now discontinued) - is dead. --Slicedpineapple (talk) 15:59, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Lead way too short. Large sections unreferenced. Short stubby paragraphs give the prose a very choppy feel. Linked years, surely not all of those dates are significant? Heavy numbers of lists. Given the size of the town, it feels lacking in coverage. I didn't even look at the reliabilty of the (very few) sources, or dig into the prose. I suggest as a start a Peer Review, then try for Good Article, before bringing it to FAC. Ealdgyth | Talk 19:33, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
