This article was promoted to GA status in 2007 and previously kept at GAR in 2008. Unfortunately, I do not think this article meets modern WP:GACR standards and will need significant amounts of work in order to retain its GA status.
- There are large swathes of unsourced information. Examples of this are the last three paragraphs of the Mission section and nearly the entirety of the Workers and residents section. In my view, the article fails WP:GACR criterion 3a as a result.
- Parts of the article may be excessively detailed to WP:COATRACK content. The article is already tagged as not being written in an encyclopedic style. As such, it fails WP:GACR criteria 1b and 4.
- The Mission section is an example of this; half of the section isn't even about the settlement house itself.
- While the Hull House neighborhood section is not as severely bloated, it also has a lot of minutiae. An example of this is the first paragraph, which gives three very detailed examples of women whom the association helped.
- Conversely, although the article also talks about the Hull House building, there is very little detail about the actual architecture. There is also very little detail about the house's use as a museum after 1930. While I understand that there may not have been any major news about Hull House after 2012, this is not a matter of the article being out of date; it's that the article's history sections predominantly focus on pre-1930 history. The article thus fails WP:GACR criterion 3a.
