GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    Source in File:Calhoun by Longacre.jpg is not available. Same for File:Jackson by Longacre.jpg and File:Longacre self portrait 1845.jpg.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
I see no way to get a permalink out of the Smithsonian; I've added a link to the search page, and instructions for the search. Note that the image is also in the source used to prove pre-1923 publication, it's just not as good quality. I'm not sure if you want any other changes.--Wehwalt (talk) 15:14, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • No, it's fine.

Fixed. Thanks, nice catch.--Wehwalt (talk) 04:54, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Which one is correct?

[edit]

Mr. Longacre was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, or Delaware County, Pennsylvania?--Jarodalien (talk) 13:21, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delaware. Apparently someone changed it.--Wehwalt (talk) 15:46, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
