Comments and discussion
editThe article is a cool one and fine. But here some points of concern:
- It is known for introducing his ideas to the American public. It was published in America on November 7, 1960, by the Hart Publishing Company and later revised as Summerhill School: A New View of Childhood in 1993. could be merged..-The Herald the joy of the LORDmy strength 16:00, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
- @The Herald, thanks for the review! Could me merged how? czar ⨹ 17:34, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
- History section could be better be called as background section instead. -The Herald the joy of the LORDmy strength 16:00, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
- ✓ done czar ⨹ 17:34, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
- Do we have any template to be transcribed at the bottom? -The Herald the joy of the LORDmy strength 16:00, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
- Do you mean a navbox? No, the topic group is too small: the school, Neill, and the book. I'm looking into another option... czar ⨹ 17:34, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
- A slight expansion in legacy and you are done. -The Herald the joy of the LORDmy strength 16:00, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
- What aspects are not covered in the current Legacy section? I believe Bailey is the best overview available. czar ⨹ 17:34, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

Additional notes
edit- ^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
- ^ Either parenthetical references or footnotes can be used for in-line citations, but not both in the same article.
- ^ This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
- ^ Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
- ^ Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
- ^ The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
