- Hi SounderBruce, review follows: article created 6 February; article is of good length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; many of the sources are offline or not available in the EU but I didn't notice any overly close paraphrasing from the ones I could access; I think ALT0 is a bit too speculative at this stage - though this could, of course change if it is actually used; ALT1 is in the article and cited to a reliable source, AGF as it is not online; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks good to me - Dumelow (talk) 07:40, 8 February 2020 (UTC)
- @Dumelow: I have changed ALT0 to say that is a designated quarantine site, which shouldn't be speculative (as they have moved the students and are preparing the facility). Here is an archived version of the second citation for the ALT0 hook, which should work on your end. SounderBruce 05:16, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
Hi SounderBruce, thanks for that. ALT0 now also approved - Dumelow (talk) 07:59, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
