Review section
[edit]I am nominating this featured article for review because, as noted by RetiredDuke a while back on the talk page, the article has issues with needing citations, bloat (11,500 words readable prose), image sandwiching, and lack of updating. The stuff that is sourced looks mostly OK, so I think the article is fixable but it will take a considerable amount of work. (t · c) buidhe 02:26, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I added a heading that says the article needs some updating, so that people would know. Blue Jay (talk) 01:58, 26 April 2021 (UTC) Any updates on progress so far? Blue Jay (talk) 03:01, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- It looks like SounderBruce has fixed some of the cn tags—which is great!—but there are still a lot of them as well as sections tagged needing update (t · c) buidhe 03:34, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I intend to fix the remaining sourcing issues when I have free time, but the page's sheer size does make it difficult to edit. A lot of trimming is definitely needed. SounderBruce 07:07, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Just FYI there will be new demographic information on Seattle released on May 27th from the US 2020 Census, which should be incorporated. Mattximus (talk) 12:47, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]- Issues raised in the review section include sourcing and coverage. Nikkimaria (talk) 03:40, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist - significant issues remain, and little improvement has occurred since SounderBruce fixed some of the CN tags bag in April. Things seem to have stalled out. Hog Farm Talk 23:08, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist, stalled progress, and probably too much to do in the course of a FAR anyway. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:57, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist per above. (t · c) buidhe 00:10, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
