Review section
[edit]This one is not particularly close, despite being a recent TFA. Questionable web sources, books without page numbers, but the largest issue is out of date. Newest thing in history in 2001. Demographics is missing the most recent census. Economy: 2001. Politics has one statement post-2007. This is so horrendously out of date that it is not close to FA standards. If the article can be brought up to date, the lesser issues shouldn't be too hard to fix, but there's about a decade's worth of new material that needs added.

- Delist. Tagged as needing update and further sources. I also have comprehensiveness concerns: the town was founded in the 1860s but the demographics, economy, and politics sections say almost nothing about the 19th- or 20th-centuries. The education section appears to have been split with the school and college foundations mentioned in the history section and only recent statistics given in the education section.

- Delist - Out of date and not comprehensive per above. Hog Farm Bacon 03:17, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist - very, very out of date and far from being representative of Wikipedia's best work, sadly Spiderone 16:22, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
