Unfortunately, I have decided to give this GAN a quick fail, mostly because lots of information that I would expect in a GAN are missing from this article. This includes: what the building was used as before its purchase in 1780, information on the architecture of the building (the facade, the inside, the grounds), its location (what municipality is it located in, and what part of that municipality, like downtown or neighbourhood name?) and its influence/legacy. I agree with the yellow banner above "Ownership history" and I think this information should be incorporated into the History section instead of having its own section. Try searching WP:LIBRARY, Google Scholar, Google News, or your local library system for more sources and information to include in this article. Some additional comments below:

  • ""DAVOLL'S GENERAL STORE". DAVOLL'S GENERAL STORE. Retrieved 2023-03-02." per MOS:ALLCAPS, this should be in sentence case.
  • ""About". DAVOLL'S GENERAL STORE. Retrieved 2023-03-02." Same as above.
  • When more information is added to the article, try expanding the lede to include more information.
  • "The store passed hands several time over the course of the 1800's. But primarily stayed in the hands of the Howlands, Tuckers, and Slocums." This should be one sentence.

If you need more help, I encourage you to use WP:PR and WP:GOCE to help improve the article, or ask for help on the talk pages of the Wikiprojects attached to this article (which you can find on the talk page). Feel free to also ping me/message me if you have any questions. Z1720 (talk) 22:25, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
