edit
ALT2 ... that Christmas Gift Evans House was not a Christmas gift?

  • Being a mix of two styles is not at all unusual, so I'd suggest against mentioning that bit. ALT2 is a perfect DYK hook: please go with it! Nyttend (talk) 22:16, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
  • Date of creation, length and content satisfactory. I would also go for ALT2. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:00, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

"bell-cast mansard roof, decorative bracketing, and exquisite ornamental iron cresting" is verbatim from the source - while the first bit is a technical term, the rest should be reworded or quoted. I also notice that some of the material is not supported by the source being cited (for example, Sanford's background) - is there another source missing?

  • Ready to go again. I have put the offending sentence into quotation marks and included the whole of the inscription in the article. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:40, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
