This article is about Birmingham, the United Kingdom's second largest city. It has been at good article status for a while and appears to meet all of the criteria. A peer reviewer stated only one issue, which is now fixed. IWI (chat) 18:16, 16 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Coord note -- As well as the points Iridescent makes, I note that there are several uncited statements/paragraphs under Religion and Culture, to name two sections. All statements need to be sourced at FA-level (at GA-level too for that matter, but especially at FA). I'll therefore be archiving this shortly and ask that the points above be addressed outside the FAC process. The gap between GA and FA is quite significant, and I'd recommend re-submitting for Peer Review after making improvements; alternatively you'd be eligible to try the FAC mentoring scheme.
