I'll read through and start the review properly on Friday. Hchc2009 (talk) 21:50, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well-written:

(a) the prose is clear and concise, respects copyright laws, and the spelling and grammar are correct;

(b) it complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.

The articles is about the Holnicote Estate, but the infobox is titled "Holnicote House"; I'm presuming that the latter is a mistake. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Factually accurate and verifiable:

(a) it provides references to all sources of information in the section(s) dedicated to the attribution of these sources according to the guide to layout;

(b) it provides in-line citations from reliable sources for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines;

(c) it contains no original research.

Broad in its coverage:

(a) it addresses the main aspects of the topic;

(b) it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).

Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without bias, giving due weight to each.

Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.

A lot of recent changes in the run-up to the GA, but no edit warring etc. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Illustrated, if possible, by images:

(a) images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content;

File:HolnicoteDomesdayBook.png needs a copyright tag to cover the photographic rights (possibly a PD-Art?) Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

(b) images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.

Is "A similar collection of stag heads amassed by his father the 7th Baronet, and much beloved by the latter, was destroyed during a fire at Holnicote in 1779." necessary in the stag caption? It makes a for a long caption.
"Memorial tablet to Charles Staynings (died 1700) in All Saints Church, Selworthy." - the full stop isn't needed as it isn't a full sentence. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
