Happy to review the article.

Failed without further review

[edit]

As the article is not broad in its coverage, as it only addresses one example of the invention, and discusses that example in copious amounts of detail, I am 'quick failing' it. I would consider seeking to rename the article (something like 'Burt’s solar compass', and creating a more general article about solar compasses.

Examples of sun/solar compasses not featured adequately (or at all in the article) include:

  • Bagnold's compass (ref)
  • Sun compasses in the animal world - already covered by another article (ref)
  • Viking sun compasses (ref)
  • Howard sun compass (ref)
  • The Apollo mission sun compass (ref)
  • Electro-optical solar compasses (ref) (ref)
  • Solar compass apps (ref)

Thanks for the review and hints. This will give me a project to do while I have these Stay Home orders. I will completely rework the article and resubmit later. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 19:55, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
