I am nominating this for featured article because... It's not a horse OR a bishop! Instead, it's a century old carousel that's been restored. Seriously, after a good bit of research, and lots of copyediting by Malleus, I believe this is as good as I can make it. It's a all in house affair - I've taken the pictures as well as the research and writing here. Ealdgyth - Talk 13:38, 11 March 2011 (UTC) reply

Overall, as I said above, the main body of the article is fine, but I think the lead needs quite a bit of polishing and copyediting. I've written more than I thought I would, so I'll move the bulk of this to the talk page after I save it. Carcharoth ( talk) 11:57, 2 April 2011 (UTC) reply
Lead is balanced. It adequately summarizes all of the article's contents. After skimming through the article, I think the most interesting fact is definitely the odd assortment of animals on the carousel—particularly the giraffes. This should be incorporated into the lead. Perhaps the sentence "As restored, the carousel is 42 feet (13 meters) wide and has a total of 42 animals." would be a good home for these critters? --
