2nd Opinion

This review has languished for one reason or another. It was nominated on 24 March for Second Opinion by an IP address. IP addresses can't do nominations. The IP address has not been active since 24 March. Nonetheless, we can take this for a second opinion.--Whiteguru (talk) 22:30, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

• Lede is a good, terse summary.

1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):

• redlink to railroad ballast might profitably go to track ballast
• redlink to mine dusting might profitably go to Rockdust
• Reference 24 goes to 404. Archive version found here
• Reference 29 does not particularly go anywhere.

1. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

• History section is well referenced.
• Uses section is appropriately comprehensive
• Self-unloading ships of the company is an important inclusion.

1. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

• NPOV is presented in this article.

1. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

• 90 day page views = 1,118

1. Overall:

• Redlinks are not show stoppers but merit correction.

• Micketti is used comprehensively. AGF here as it is not accessible on Google Books.
• Generally, a well written, interesting article as limestone has many, important uses. --Whiteguru (talk) 02:30, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
