Review section
[edit]I am nominating this featured article for review because per the talk page notice by Hog Farm, there is uncited material, and out of date information (2001 census used instead of 2011) and the election results haven't been updated since 2011. Also citation [3] is a heritage report from the council, a long 61-page doc, which lacks page numbers Bumbubookworm (talk) 12:48, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC the issues identified by the nominator are still outstanding and in my opinion preclude FA criteria for this article (t · c) buidhe 15:18, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC; my concerns which I posted in my notice in March have not been addressed. Material such as omitting the 2011 census and statements like "In 2006, Reculver Church of England Primary School achieved the best Key Stage 2 performances of the schools in the Herne Bay area, ranking 133rd out of Kent's 386 state primary schools" reflect datedness issues, and there are also areas of uncited text, such as most of the transportation section.

[edit]- Issues raised in the review section include sourcing and comprehensiveness. Nikkimaria (talk) 18:03, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist. Unsourced statements. The 'Governance' section tells us about the town's representation at national and district level, but it appears to have a separate town council that is not mentioned. Nor is representation at county level. There's also nothing about the former urban district. The 'Demography' section has an undue focus on the 2001 census, explaining the demography at that timepoint in too much detail and not mentioning any long-term trends or data from other years (though some of this is in the 'History' section). The 'Sports' section suffers from short, stubby paragraphs and choppy prose. DrKay (talk) 15:41, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist, per DrKay and my comments above in the FAR section. Hog Farm Talk 00:35, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Closing note: This removal candidate has been delisted, but there may be a delay in bot processing of the close. Please leave the {{featured article review}} template in place on the talk page until the bot goes through. Nikkimaria (talk) 20:48, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
