Proposed move

I think this would be better moving to /r/place as that is the actual name – NixinovaT|C20:03, 10 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • PD logo and fair use image of artwork in question
Could you point out specifically what’s wrong with them? I am not overly familiar with fair use laws, but they seem fine to me. WackyWikiWoo (talk) 03:09, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There's nothing wrong with them. This is a comment that says that... Kingsif (talk) 05:29, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I misinterpreted- thought “in question” meant “in doubt”. WackyWikiWoo (talk) 08:38, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well written throughout
  • I would change the heading 'Overview' to 'Experiment'
 Done WackyWikiWoo (talk) 03:09, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "colourful" in wiki voice is in British English - is there a reason for this?
 Fixed WackyWikiWoo (talk) 03:09, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Expand "FEE" to "Foundation for Economic Education"
 Done WackyWikiWoo (talk) 03:09, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is the FEE quotation directly lifted, because I think the verb "characterize" should actually be "characterizes"? This is a simple fix
This was directly lifted- the source used “characterize”. I’ve modified the quotation to include the s using square brackets. WackyWikiWoo (talk) 03:09, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Talk page and history look clear enough
  • Is IB Times (currently [5]) a reliable source for the list (and is it needed, since there's a bunch of other sources for this part?)
minus Removed WackyWikiWoo (talk) 03:09, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • The lead might be a bit long, and I'd move the canvas dimensions and date down into the experiment overview section. Maybe some other stuff could also be moved into the body, giving a better balance?
I’ve moved the dimensions down, but I think cutting the lead anymore will hinder its purpose to summarise the article’s main points. WackyWikiWoo (talk) 03:09, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Overall

There seems to be no link to the final version of Place (the infobox image is for some weird reason not at full resolution, even though there doesn't appear to be a copyright restriction), nor to a timelapse of its evolution. Those seem like big gaps, and give me some doubts (compounded by the very short length and only 16 references) about whether the GA status is deserved. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 07:08, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There's no link because the final Place was taken down by Reddit afterwards. It doesn't exist anymore. The best we can manage is a screenshot someone took at the end. I'm sure there are also timelapse videos out there, if someone felt it worth adding to the article. — The Hand That Feeds You:Bite 17:20, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
