• Submitted a bit close to 11 August, but 11 September might be another notable date to run it, or 28 November if this languishes here awhile. Best, CMD (talk) 00:51, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
• Will review this. BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:41, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: A very well done article. The only issue is that the statement for the hook – The interim Fretilin administration repeatedly requested Portuguese authorities return to Dili from Atauro, and left the Governor's office vacant. – needs a direct citation per Wikipedia:Did you know: the facts of the hook need to appear in the article with a citation no later than at the end of the sentences in which they appear. Otherwise looks good. Nice work. BeanieFan11 (talk) 01:02, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
