  • ☑Y Article is long enough (3125 characters), new enough (created and nominated on 29 April), and article is within policy. Earwig copyvio is only picking up quotes, no actual copyvios
  • Question? Buidhe Is there a reason why the article focuses on the 2016-17 financial year, when that was 3 years ago? Only using 3 years old figures makes the article seem outdated. Are the figures still similar for the 2018-19 tax year? (I'm guessing 2019-20 figures haven't been calculated yet)
  • Question? Hook is short enough, well sourced and interesting, though I think it should be "subsidised" not "subsidized" to comply with British English (as it's an article about London and the UK). Again if there were newer figures, I think that would be more interesting/relevant for the hook
  • ☑Y QPQ done
  • Overall, a good article but a couple of issues that need resolving. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:44, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
