Hanover Lodge

Hanover Lodge
Hanover Lodge
  • ... that London's Hanover Lodge (pictured) became the UK’s most expensive home in 2012, when it sold for £120 million? Source: "Andrey Goncharenko shelled out a massive £120 million ($205 million) for Britain’s most expensive home, it has been revealed. The oligarch has since filled for planning permission to extend the Grade-2 listed London property. " (and [1] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)

  • 16px New enough. Long enough. Neutral tone. Reliable citations throughout. Citations check out. Hook is interesting enough. Wish the article was written in a less list-like manner but clearly written nonetheless. GTG. Hybernator (talk) 05:38, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
  • 16px Article has been pulled from prep because it has been templated for not having a lead section, and because the hook doesn't seem to account for homes that are typically not for sale, such as Buckingham Palace or the like. Highest price paid for a home/residence, perhaps? (And is this a purchase or a take over of the 150-year lease mentioned earlier? In any event, the article needs reorganization, including dealing with the high number of single-sentence paragraphs, and a better attempt at a chronology of ownership. There's also a disagreement between two of the major sources as to the architect that should be addressed. (I would also suggest that starting five consecutive paragraphs with the word "From" should be addressed as well.) BlueMoonset (talk) 23:18, 20 February 2017 (UTC)

It also transpires that it isn't the most expensive house in the UK, per RS. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:07, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

  • 16px No response in over a week, and no attempt by the nominator to deal with the issues. If this is to continue, a new hook will have to be supplied, because, as The Rambling Man notes, a house was previously sold for more than the amount given in the hook (which has been struck).

  • BlueMoonset, I have much expanded the lead, and will address the other issues shortly! Edwardx (talk) 13:52, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
