This is one of Misplaced Pages's oldest unreviewed featured articles—last reviewed in 2005. Grahamec you seem to be the only still-active editor here. If you are maintaining the article, I have listed some suggestions below. If, on the other hand, no one is maintaining the article, or these issues can't be addressed, a featured article review might be in order.

(The lake was created after the Second World War through the blocking, with a dam, of the Molonglo River.) A parenthetical is probably UNDUE for the WP:LEAD ... better placed in the body. If it is significant enough for the lead, we should be told why and it should not be a parenthetical.
The lead is not an adequate summary of the article; it focuses almost entirely on history, but should include other important bits from the article. One possibility is to pick some of the important facts from each section to summarize to the lead to give readers a better overviwe of the suburb.
There is text in the Settlement and Development and After World War II sections that should be cited (I have not added tags).
MOS:CURRENT ... we should provide dates or as of dates, example, Yarralumla is located within the federal electorate of Canberra, which is currently represented by Alicia Payne in the House of Representatives --> represented by Alicia Payne who was elected to the House of Representatives in year X ...
There is some MOS:SANDWICHing of images; you can see samples of techniques that can be used to reduce image layout problems in this version of Mayfly
Further reading: as FAs are expected to be comprehensive, anything listed in Further reading warrants explanation as to why they can't or haven't been used as sources.

I hope you (or others) have the time and interest to bring this article back to standard, as other editors seem to have moved along. Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:12, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
