Hope to get to this over the weekend. This'll be GA review #300 for me, I think, so a bit of a milestone. Hog Farm _Talk 19:55, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have a watch on it and will start on the issues when I see them. I am aiming for 200 GAs by Christmas myself. I have 17 GAs so far this month and a grand total of 175 GAs as the green icons indicate on top of my User Page. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 20:27, 15 July 2021 (UTC).[reply]

I think it's nice to have some genealogical material here, but recommend trimming that first paragraph a little bit

Done

"He was the eldest of thirteen children of the Jewish-German immigrants. His parents, Herman Cone and Helen (Guggenheimer} Cone, emigrated from Germany to the United States in the 1840s. Moses' father changed his last name from Kahn to "Cone" almost immediately upon arrival in the United States to become more American" - a lot of this is in the previous section; I think the transition can be made a little smoother to avoid duplicating content

Done

"In the 1880s the Cones then moved to Eutaw Place in Baltimore," - link Eutaw Place

Done

"Eventually they took in another forty mills over time and completely controlled the market. Eventually United States antitrust laws broke up the agreements the Cones had with the various mills to control the market" - recommend rephrasing if possible to avoid having two straight sentences starting with "eventually"

Done

"He built additional mills throughout the Greensboro area and the deep South and soon became" - the "deep" in Deep South should be capitalized
