This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this article for peer review because i have done some work on the article since the last time it was nominated. I wonder if my work has been enough to achieve B status? I don't think i'm there yet.

Comments from Jolly Janner

 * Lead
 * The first sentence refers to it as a district, but the second sentence jumps in with "The town...". It would be better to call it a "district and town" in the first sentence.


 * "to the east of Kirkcaldy" how far east (in miles and kilometres)?


 * I often see articles about settlements refering to the geography in the first paragrph of the lead. I think a mention that it is on the coast wouldn't go a miss.
 * "Following the death of the town's harbour" do harbours die? I think words like "closure" or "decline" are more appropriate.


 * "saw large parts of the antique town" I think "historical" would be a better word than "antique" and again in the next sentence, unless that's what it's called localy.


 * "Nowadays, the town retains an individual character" I think "today" would be a better word than "nowadays", but how does it retain an individual character?


 * Low Countries is wikilinked twice in the lead.

I'll try and do the rest later.  Jolly  Ω   Janner  01:33, 23 December 2008 (UTC)


 * In landmarks, what is a "stone ogile roof"? Specifically the word ogile.
