This is a GA Reassessment: so a truncated set of observations...

1. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

• Page created 23 May 2005
• Page has 686 edits by 234 editors
• 90 day page views = 3,602 with average of 40 visitors daily
• 16 edits reverted
• Page has 39 watchers.
• Internet Archive Bot has been on page twice - last visit tagging no links as dead;
• Cluebot NG has not visited, indicating no vandalism; page considered stable

1. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

• 11 images on article
• all fair use rationales accepted, images have appropriate captioning

1. Overall:

• Basically, this page is in a Good Article shape and form. However, this page records the restoration of a closed narrow gauge railway in North Devon, UK, and should be updated on a regular basis. With 39 watchers, this should not be a difficult task. Below are some observations that may merit attention - and possibly inclusion - in various sections, such as Present, Restoration and Prospects.

• There is a citation needed tag on the twinning with the Walhalla Goldfields Railway. Consider this link.
• Chelfham Station restoration has won a National Railway Heritage Award.

• Parracombe Halt has been purchased.

• Bratton Fleming Station has been purchased.

• Planning the rebuild of the railway might be an inclusion

• Killington Lane to Blackmoor and Wistlandpound may serve as a useful reference

• The challenges of rebuilding Woody Bay to Lynton are also documented.

Should these matters be responded or attended to, the article may retain GA status. --Whiteguru (talk) 04:29, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
