  • Cursory review:

General eligibility:

Policy compliance:

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: No - Hook not supported by references. A source is given here in the nomination, but it's not in the actual article.
  • Interesting: Yes
  • Other problems: No - Not boldlinked. Too vague: "used to be used"—when? When was it banned? What sort of authorization is required?
QPQ: None required.
Overall: The lead fails to mention the crucial fact that TXP is a mixture of many (how many?) different compounds, although this is mentioned obliquely in the Synthesis section ("In practise this produces a range of products"). Synthesis is unsourced, as are claims of widespread use and poor safety. Overall this is interesting and promising, and I love seeing chemistry on the Main Page, but the article needs substantial fleshing out and additional references.
