- The article requires extensive copy edit (Which I will be doing shortly). Please do not fail this just because the grammar is atrocious. I will fix that in about 2 hours(I am eating and editing). FreeatlastChitchat (talk) 09:51, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
The article readable prose size (5093 characters and 8166 B) is long enough. The article is new enough. Main hook is better that ALT1. So, hook's character count is within the legal limits and cited immediately at the end of the sentence. Lstfllw203, please nominate the article in this page for copy edit. Also, add references for lead sentences. In the title of article, why Bridgeton is italic?Saff V. (talk) 09:45, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

@Lstfllw203: No citations for the first paragraph of incident and aftermath. The one in aftermath also contains a direct quotation. This is clearly against our guidelines for adequate referencing. Jolly Ω Janner 04:20, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
