:::*I don't think a citation is really needed here. The list was already in the article.

James A. Wetmore
- ... that James A. Wetmore's name is inscribed on more Federal buildings than any other US citizen? Source:
5x expanded by MB (talk). Self-nominated at 17:09, 12 August 2017 (UTC).
the article is long enough, is neutral, contains no close paraphrasing or copyvio (27.5%, mostly positions, just one sentence "it was they who routinely collaborated with local architects to design at least 2,000 federal government buildings, many of which were post offices" should be reworked a little bit), the hook is neutral, short enough, interesting, is properly sourced with an inline source citation, the article itself is adequately sourced and written in adequate English. --Elisa.rolle (talk) 23:20, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
Template:Ping if there is close paraphrasing in an article, please do not approve it until the nominator fixes it.- Source: and it was they who routinely collaborated with local architects to design at least 2,000 federal government buildings, many of which were post offices.
- Article: and it was they who routinely collaborated with local architects to design at least 2,000 federal government buildings, many of which were post offices.
- This was in the original article when created in 2009. I did not add it but have gone and rewritten the sentence as it has been shown to have been copied from the source. MB 04:36, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
- Please also verify that this is a 5x expansion.
- Yes, it was at 1184 characters readable prose on 8/5 before I expanded it to the current 7122 characters (a little more than 6x). MB 04:36, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
- I added a "citation needed" tag to the list of buildings credited to him. Where did you get this information? Yoninah (talk) 02:28, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
- I don't think a citation is really needed here. The list was already in the article. This article clearly states that his name is on EVERY federal government building that was built during his tenure, 1915-1933 (of which there are at least 2000). These are all such buildings. The date of their construction is not controversial and can be found in the corresponding article, most of which are cited to the building's National Register of Historic Places listing.
