  • Review Good to go! New article, timely nominated. Meets core policies and guidelines, and in particular: is neutral; cites sources with inline citations; is free of close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations and plagiarism. DYK nomination was timely and article is easily long enough. Every paragraph is cited. No copyright violations or too close paraphrasing. In passing, I note that I did not have access to the offline sources and WP:AGF. Earwig's copy violation detector: 25th Arizona Territorial Legislature report gives it a clean bill. Hook is hooky enough, I think, and relates directly to the essence of the article. As this was a hotly partisan (and the final) session of the territorial legislature, there were other interesting activities that might be 'hookworthy.' The literacy test (reading any paragraph of the constitution) was aimed at Mexican immigrants, and is a timely issue today. I would like to see the picture used in the article used in the hook, but I leave that to the nominator/creator. In any event, interesting, decently neutral, and appropriately cited. QPQ done. Very nicely done! 7&6=thirteen () 14:44, 26 November 2015 (UTC)
  • Comment In external links I put in this: 1910 Photograph of the 25th Arizona Territorial Legislature members Sharlot Hall Museum, Prescott, Arizona

1910 Photograph of all members of the 25th Arizona Territorial Legislature Sharlot Hall Museum, Prescott, Arizona

I presume that these group photos have to be out of copyright, therefore could be added to the article, and would then be a great addition to the hook line. However, we need to find a publication date so that we can proceed accordingly. 7&6=thirteen () 15:54, 26 November 2015 (UTC)
