Hello! I'll be taking a look at this article for the January 2022 GAN backlog drive. If you haven't already signed up, please feel free to join in! Although QPQ is not required, if you're feeling generous, I also have a list of GA nominations of my own right here.

Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked are unassessed

Lede

"shot dead" → "fatally shot" or "shot and killed"
on the Eurostar feels like trivia for the lede
Add sentence about the docuseries
- Done - the Eurostar mention was for people unfamiliar with the Channel Tunnel who may be surprised by people returning to the UK at a train station rather than an airport, but I imagine that is a very small number of people these days :)

Background

Should "merchant navy" be capitalized?
Use {{snd}} for every instance of hyphens with spaces around them
"east" in "East London" should be capitalized per our article on it
Link Frank Sinatra
- Done - {{snd}} mass find-replaced in.

Murders and concealment

"63 years old, respectively."
See above about SND
- Done

Fraud and discovery

"signed photographs of the actor Gary Cooper"
"spooked" → "frightened"
Link Lille here in the body
- Done

Trial

What was Christopher charged with, murder or manslaughter?
Single quotes → double quotes around "provocation" per MOS:QUOTE
- Done - clause about their actual convictions must've gotten lost in some editing!

Media representation

More than one sentence would be nice, maybe say who was playing Christopher and Susan, or what the critical reception was
- Doneh

Mention was made of the. BBC Radio series on the murders, but no reference was given. The series is now available as a podcast via BBC Sounds. I am unsure of how to add such a reference, as when I try, I invariably get it wrong! But I think it would be helpful for the reference to be added. So if anyone more knowledgeable would like to do this, here is a link to the relevant BBC web page:

Thank you for your patience as I was dealing with some migraine issues that limited the amount of time I could use a screen. Putting on hold for now. — Ghost River 17:20, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@GhostRiver no problem at all! As GANs go this was positively speedy! :) I think I've addressed everything, let me know what you think. firefly ( t · c ) 17:09, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
