I'll take this review.

Comments

Infobox - The number of floors doesn't seem to be cited anywhere in the article, maybe I missed it. The fact that the Lazarus/Macy's store had three stories is cited, but unsure about the other two.

• Added references in the body verifying number of floors.

History - "DeBartolo announced the mall's development in January of that year and began groundbreaking soon afterward. The original plans called for a Y-shaped enclosed mall with three anchor stores: Sears, J. C. Penney, and Rike Kumler Co. (Rike's), a department store chain based out of Dayton, Ohio. The mall would be situated on 82nd Street just outside the Interstate 465 beltway within the Castleton neighborhood on the northeastern side of Indianapolis." - This is all in the one citation, right? I can't get into access the newspaper page to verify (this specific paper is paywalled, newspaper.com has varying access levels).

• I broke this up a bit to make the referencing clearer.

1970s and 1980s "By Christmas 1972, the mall had increased to 59 stores." - Is this cited in the citation at the end of the next sentence (article titled something about springtime)? I can't verify.

• Yes it is.

21st century "In 2005, the store was further converted to just Macy's." - This statement is sourced to article dated in 2003. Something is off here.

• Moved the info.

References - Ref 33, "Sears to close sole Indianapolis location", doesn't contain publisher information. This should be added, appears to be the Indianapolis Star.

• Fixed.

Since The Indianapolis News and Indianapolis Star are paywalled on newspapers.com, the subscription required parameter should probably be invoked.

• Fixed.

External links Is the Castleton Square - Simon.com external link appropriate? We already link to it in the infobox, and the about page is cited. It seems a bit adverty to me, but I guess the official website of a shopping mall would be. If you think it ought to be kept, I'm fine with that.

• Consensus is that this is fine.

Images All good here.

That's it, not much to fix here. Hog Farm (talk) 03:33, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
