- Hey, @Sawyer-mcdonell: just a heads up that this next week (Monday 4 March—Friday 8 March) is one where I'll be working extended shifts of 9 AM to 10 PM Eastern Time (US). As such, there's a high likelihood that my responses will be delayed. I should still have opportunities to respond to any comments and I'll still have access to the sources in question, though. Thanks again for launching the review! ~ Pbritti (talk) 06:34, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Assessment
editWell-written
- the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct Passed
- it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation
Verifiable with no original research
- it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline Passed
- reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose)
- it contains no original research Passed
- it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism Passed
Broad in its coverage
- it addresses the main aspects of the topic
- Comment:
In certain respects a high tory and ultra-protestant, Hull joined Sir Robert Inglis's committee formed in 1829 to oppose the return of Robert Peel as MP for Oxford University, and a pamphlet he wrote in 1829 opposed the admission of Roman Catholics or Jews to parliament.
(from the Oxford National Biography) - I think this could be a good thing to add; it gives more context to his views on liturgy, and it's an interesting contrast with his later defense of William George Ward. I think note 3 could be moved to the body of the text.
- Comment:
- it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style) Passed
Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each Passed
Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute Passed
Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio
- media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content Passed
- media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions Passed
- @Pbritti I've finished my initial review; this is one of the fastest GAN reviews I've done because the article is quite short and concise, which is pleasant. I've got a few suggestions before I formally pass it. Excellent work! sawyer * he/they * talk 20:25, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Sawyer-mcdonell: Wow, you move fast! I know it's a short one, but I'm still impressed. Ok, to your comments:
- Regarding links to Jasper 1954 and Bradshaw 1971, I found Jasper. However, no one has uploaded Bradshaw as far as I am aware; I ended up shelling out an embarrassing amount for my copy two years ago so I'm more than willing to share the relevant page if needed (it's only about three paragraphs with one or two extended quotations from the proposed ordination rite).
- I opposed the reorganization of the article when another BOLDly did it a bit ago, but it would seem I'm outvoted on it–all for the best! I'll do that shortly.
- I'll add the 1829 parliamentary committee and opposition to Toleration in, as you're right in that they definitely add to the coverage. I'll also move note three to the body.
- The lack of illustration has been annoying me, too. According to a New Zealand library (yes, I know that's out of left field), there's a possible caricature of him from a newspaper cartoon. However, the Hull depicted is more likely his father, John Hull (physician). In any case, the image hasn't been digitized at a high enough resolution.
- Thanks again for the prompt review. Expect the GAN comments to produce results shortly! ~ Pbritti (talk) 20:48, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- Ok, done working through the comments! ~ Pbritti (talk) 00:13, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
- Lovely! (Since you're busy this week I figured I might as well do the review today, as I'm doing the GAN review drive & have a bunch of other article reviews lined up.) I was mainly just curious about the offline sources, since they seem like the kind of thing that would be difficult to find; I've used a lot of offline sources (via local library) for some other projects. The article looks excellent now; congrats!! sawyer * he/they * talk 00:16, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
