Fontainhas (quarter)

[edit]

A heritage house in Fontainhas with a Wishing Well

5x expanded by Nvvchar (talk). Self-nominated at 01:30, 5 April 2015 (UTC).

  • New enough, long enough, neutrally written, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Image appears in article and is freely licensed. QPQ done. The hook ref appears to be cited to The Hindu article, although that article has been taken down from the site and is now a dead link. Perhaps you could suggest a different hook?

  • @Yoninah: Thanks for the review. There was a full stop error at the end of the url. I have rectified it. The referenced text can be seen now.--Nvvchar. 06:20, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
  • Thank you. Reading both refs, though, I think you went beyond what the sources actually say to write your lead. They say that the quarter reflects the ancient or traditional Portuguese influence in the area, not that it's a "throwback". Yoninah (talk) 09:54, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: I agree. Went overboard. I have made corrections in the lead section. Suggesting an ALT1 hook:
  • ALT1: ... that the Fontainhas's (pictured) heritage ambiance reflects the traditional Portuguese influence in the area? --Nvvchar. 15:16, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
  • Thank you. ALT1 hook ref verified and cited inline. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 15:24, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
