Lead section

[edit]
  • The third image, which shows terrace in the distance, seems purely decorative, as it doesn’t illustrate any part of the text. I wouldn’t include it here.
    I haven't made it very clear but the image is showing Max Roach Park which was created after the demolition of one side of Villa Road ... I'll have a think how to make the link more obvious Mujinga (talk) 15:39, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I found a source to make the link more explicit and moved the pic down to be next to that part of the text Mujinga (talk) 16:33, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Definitely better. I've moved the image up a bit so it doesn't go into the next section, please revert if you wish. Amitchell125 (talk) 16:43, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ah yes I was confused by that as I made my last edit ("did I realy place it there and not below?" haha). Great, I've answered everything so back to you Mujinga (talk) 16:45, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Suggestion (not GA) - make a multiple image at the top? (use Template:Multiple image). AM
Understood, but in those days, being a single mother in Britain was considered in a different light from the way it is nowadays, an attitude that was even more prevalent decades earlier (see here for where I am coming from). Some sort of explanation for why they were considered in this way might be useful, perhaps as a separate note. Amitchell125 (talk) 16:55, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In which case I think it would make more sense to move this sentence to the Popular culture section. Amitchell125 (talk) 16:59, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

On hold

I'm putting the article on hold for a week until 14 August to allow time for the issues raised to be addressed. Regards, Amitchell125 (talk) 09:44, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Passing

[edit]

Passing the article now, it's well into GA territory. Regards, Amitchell125 (talk) 17:42, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
