- Comment: Created by Delqa on May 19. Expanded by me. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 21:20, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
Created by Delqa (talk) and Kavyansh.Singh (talk). Nominated by Kavyansh.Singh (talk) at 21:20, 20 May 2022 (UTC).
This article is new enough and long enough. It is neutral and cites its sources. I am a little concerned about close paraphrasing from one source: [3]. Both hooks are cited within the article and are interesting to a broad audience. QPQ done. Other than the concern with paraphrasing this article is good to go. I invite a response from the nominator about the potential close paraphrasing and if the text of the article needs to be tweaked. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 16:37, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Trainsandotherthings: Thanks for the review. I made few changes, but most of the other paraphrasing appears to be case of WP:LIMITED, like name and titles of institutions. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 10:41, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
The article looks good to go now. Thanks for the changes. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 12:42, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Kavyansh.Singh: is the "without scurvy" bit a quote or a summary? The article and the hook don't seem to agree, and I can't access the source... theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 08:18, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
