This is an readable and well illustrated article; but it is not yet a GA-class article (see River Parrett and River Irwell, which are UK GA-class river articles, as examples of what is achievable). The article is a good B-class, but in order to be rated as GA-class it must comply with Wikipedia:Good article criteria. I have provided a summary of some of the problems and my recommendations below.
You may be able to correct and improve the article sufficiently in the next week, or so, so I will put the article On Hold for now.
Problems:
" ...River Itchen, which it joins at a medieval salmon pool in Swaythling. The brook is formed from seven streams that rise in the chalky South Downs, with the official source of Monks Brook being known as Bucket's Corner. Monks Brook drains a clay catchment of 49 square kilometres. The brook is designated a main river, which means the operating authority for managing it is the Environment Agency, not the local government authorities for the areas through which the river runs. In 2007, a 250 metre stretch of a tributary to the brook that had been culverted in the 1970s to make way for a golf course was uncovered as part of a £2.5 million community regeneration project."

Has the potential to make GA, but needs someone to make the effort.
I'm regretfully failing this article for lack of (any) progress. It has the potential to make GA.

@ DarklitShadow: has tagged the page as having unreliable sources, however they hasn't made clear which sources they are referring to. A cursory glance doesn't show any immediately obvious candidates. Murgatroyd49 ( talk) 09:32, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
