As promised, I'm picking this review back up. Review will be forthcoming. 🏵️Etrius ( Us) 03:59, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Sources: edit

  • "cross moline". Meriam Webster. FN 3 needs to be filled out, not thrilled about a tertiary source but it's fine for now
  • '"The symbolic power of the Way of St. James". Five Sensations. August 25, 2015. Retrieved August 25, 2015.' Is this a reliable source?
  • I recall that we didn't determine the veracity of this source
  • St. James. Encyclopedia Britannica. January 1, 2022. Again, not thrilled with a tertiary source but I'll let it slide.
  • '"Postres del Mundo. Galicia: La Tarta de Santiago". Viajar Y Celebrar (in Spanish). August 8, 2017.' this is a travel blog

Images: edit

  • If you can make the gallery images larger, that would be ideal.
  • Image rights appear to be in order

Copy-Vios: edit

  • Random spot checks found nothing exciting.
  • Earwig isn't flagging anything, only proper nouns and simple phrases

Misc: edit

  • Nothing else

Prose edit

  • It is used widely throughout Spain and Portugal. Remove 'widely'
  • Again, this has been copy-edited to high heaven, there really isn't much left to do



So sorry for taking a week to get this out, I've been all tied up with Med School Apps. Thankfully I'll have a little down time now.

  • I worked on the images; swapped out both the encyclopedia and the dictionary. I found a new reference for the tart. Last item: Is five sensations a reliable source? Probably not. What to do? I am having trouble finding a reliable source for those two minor points. I could use the cathloic encylopeida for one, and maybe this for the other [[:File:Navarrete pavement camino marker.jpg|A pavement marker indicates the route of the Way of St James through Navarrete, La Rioja, Spain]]. --evrik (talk) 03:58, 31 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
*I copied this message over from my talk page.
@Evrik: Images all look good, I am not particularly concerned about the tertiary sources since I understand that sourcing is limited. WP:Tertiary isn't an explicit forbidding, rather a general rule. I'd caution about adding too many images, there's already a link to the commons. Realistically, the fsensations source will need to be cut, unless there is some justification for it being reliable. I am personally unsure, it appears there may be some kind of editorial standard for the site but it also appears to be a blog run by one person. Is there a WP:BLOG rational?
I made an attempt to dig up sources on Newspapers.com, no such luck. Currently looking at Google Scholar to see if there's anything. 🏵️Etrius ( Us) 23:52, 6 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • What about just dropping the two sentences that use the source as a reference?--evrik (talk)<
    • @Evrik: That'll work fine. 🏵️Etrius ( Us) 13:35, 10 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
