1912 Brooklands Flanders Monoplane crash
- ... that the first report into an aviation accident was produced in June 1912?
Created/expanded by Mjroots (talk). Self nom at 19:39, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
- New article, all edits over about 3 days.
- 1750 B of prose
- Neutral tone, just lays out the facts
- Inline citations employed
- Source quality wise, there is a major newspaper, a govt website, and two sources listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Resources, so I assume their reliability.
- Sources match article for most part, AGF on offline
- I do not see any close paraphrasing
- Hook is brief and interesting
- I'm undecided about how the hook links to the article, but it seems okay
Remaining issues
- QPQ necessary
- Ref 1 does not explicitly mention model numbers (F.3 and D.4). This isn't a deal breaker, but if they could be sourced, it would be nice. Looking at the relevant Wikipedia articles, I agree that those should be the models by seating and horsepower, respectively.
- As an aside, Chrome does not like ref 1, but IE8 handles it fine. Chris857 (talk) 02:31, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- I missed a couple of things.
It has been over two weeks since the above review was done, and notice was placed on the creator/nominator's talk page on the 15th and bumped on the 22nd. The author has been active on Wikipedia, just not here. There is an issue with the hook, and a QPQ has not been done. Given the complete lack of response, the article cannot be approved, and has been marked with the orange X icon. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:58, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
