I will do the GA Reassessment on this article as part of the GA Sweeps project. H1nkles (talk) 17:42, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

• The lead needs to be expanded to summarize all aspects of the article per WP:Lead. Also information found in the lead should be found in the article. Most of the lead is not mentioned in the article at all.

• Why is the image of Litchfield in the References section? This isn't the right place for the image.

photo relocated, images updated. CrazyPaco (talk) 03:43, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

• Are there any notable traditions that go on in these buildings during the school year?

I am not aware of any long standing notable traditions (that are supported by verifiable citations) directly related to the Towers, but that will be researched further. CrazyPaco (talk) 19:25, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

What about notable people that lived in these buildings - references verifying this may be hard to find but would be necessary.

This would be nearly impossible to determine. No university sources are known to exist to be able to supply this information. CrazyPaco (talk) 19:25, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

What prompted the building of these towers?

How much did it cost to build? There are quite a few items that should be covered to make the article comprehensive.

$14m...added. CrazyPaco (talk) 00:22, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

• Is there an image of the interior of one of the dorms?

No, a request for such an image has been pending on the Pitt Wikiproject for some time. CrazyPaco (talk) 19:25, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

• The hours for the restaurants isn't really important information and it is a one-sentence paragraph, which is frowned upon.

Removed. CrazyPaco (talk) 19:25, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

• Many of your references don't have a publisher or an accessdate, these are minimum requirements for referencing websites.

Repaired. CrazyPaco (talk) 21:13, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

• Refs 1 and 9 are dead and need to be repaired.

Repaired. Note that two references are off-line, unarchived (on the internet) historical resources.CrazyPaco (talk) 21:14, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

There are several issues with this article that need to be addressed if the article is to maintain its GA Status. For your reference here is the GA Criteria. I will notify all interested editors and projects that I am putting the article on hold for a week pending work. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me on my talk page. H1nkles (talk) 18:08, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

Many of these issues can be addressed, but it may take some time to do suitable research depending on available free time.CrazyPaco (talk) 19:25, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

No problem, the important thing is that someone is working on it. I can extend the hold if necessary. Just keep me posted. H1nkles (talk) 20:16, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

The issues appear to have been addressed I will keep at GA. Congrats. H1nkles (talk) 15:46, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
