Result: Kept Deadlink in themselves are not a reason to delist and we do not have any consensus that the article is not broad enough to meet the GA requirements AIRcorn (talk) 07:20, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Although the article is neutral, stable, illustrated and largely well written, I don't think the coverage is broad enough to warrant good article status (the history section, for example, seems underdeveloped – compare and contrast with the one for Hatfield College, Durham) and some sections do not have enough references, while a number of the reference links are dead and have been for some time, and other references are lazily written. Overall it has the appearance of an article that once had high potential but has since been badly neglected --Fat Larry's Ghost (talk) 17:03, 21 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What do you think it's missing by the way, Hatfield's history section is slightly larger, yes but that might be a sign it might want a GA review, not the other way round. This isn't a featured article, and it's just about a college not an entire university, so it won't be to the same scale as a university one. It seems to have sufficiently good coverage to meet GA criteria, possibly slightly weak on the history section. I disagree that it's been badly neglected, if there only seems to be a few deadlinks, so it might be helpful to fix some of the issues? Shadowssettle(talk) 10:37, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
