• ... that although the Canary Islands is one of the most-visited tourist destinations in Spain, a third of its residents are at risk of poverty, a reason for mass anti-tourism protests?
  • ALT1: ... that wealth generated by tourism in Barcelona is claimed to be a reason for increased social inequality, causing activists to protest against overtourism?

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook eligibility:

• Cited: - Within the article WP:DYKHFC states hook facts need to be cited by the end of the sentence they appear in. Alt1 seems to fail for this reason as the sentence containing the phrase "wealth generated by tourism was not distributed" is not cited.
• Interesting:
• Other problems: - Currently the original hook reads as if residents of tourist destinations usually profit from tourism, which is not supported by the article.

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Currently when reading the sentence "Barcelona became the first city to ban short-term private room rentals" it is unclear if this means the first city in Spain or globally. In either case, and presuming the source - which I could not access - is unequivocal about this, then possibly this fact might make another interesting hook?

@Kingsif: Please let me know if you have any questions about this review. CSJJ104 (talk) 13:35, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

@CSJJ104: Dup'ed ref for the citation. For 'other problems', I suppose fair enough, though the implication is not stated in the hook nor does the hook rely on it. About the short-term private room rentals, I can't access the source either; between this and the archive date it looks like it's from some of the content that was copied over from related articles. If it doesn't meet V, it can be removed. Kingsif (talk) 23:39, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

@Kingsif: I had not realised content was copied from other articles, clearly an article I missed. The license used by Wikipedia requires that the original authors be attributed if content is copied. See Wikipedia:COPYWITHIN for more details. Can you please indicate if this attribution has been made? If not we will have to fail the nomination. CSJJ104 (talk) 14:33, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

@CSJJ104: Don't worry, attribution was made at the time the info was copied, as typical. Kingsif (talk) 21:30, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

Confirmed that article is long enough without copied material and attribution was given. Problems with Alt1 have been resolved. CSJJ104 (talk) 23:39, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
