Hook eligibility:
- Cited:
- Interesting:
- Other problems: - ALT0 should be in past tense, suggest ... that Sammy Basso was the oldest known person with progeria? ALT1 is not supported by the article text.
QPQ: None required. |
Overall: Nominator needs to address the hook tense, and the similarity to the good reads source. Polyamorph (talk) 13:34, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Polyamorph: ALT1 is supported "He dedicated his life to studying and raising awareness about progeria", not sure what to do about the ALT0 issue, I guess just use "... that Sammy Basso was the oldest known person with progeria?" - Sebbog13 (talk) 16:35, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Polyamorph: I got rid of the copyvios in the lead section, is it good now? - Sebbog13 (talk) 16:52, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for fixing the copyvio. For ALT1 I meant it's not mentioned clearly in the wikipedia article. It says he was a biologist and that he had the intention of further researching progeria once he had completed his degree studies, but there are no details about this. It appears that the section "Contributions to scientific research" is more about how he volunteered as a participant in research studies, but no discussion about how he personally contributed as a researcher. For now, I'm happy to approve ALT0 - I've edited the hook directly, fixing the typo. Polyamorph (talk) 17:12, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
