  • Do the hooks properly please - see how other do it, or the rules. The 2nd is surely too long, and the first rather banal. Johnbod (talk) 02:19, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

@Johnbod: Thank you for putting in right direction.Is it OK now?Whispyhistory (talk) 06:24, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

Tweaked. Ok now. I'm not reviewing btw. Johnbod (talk) 11:21, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
  • the article is long enough, is neutral, contains no close paraphrasing or copyvio (only names/positions that cannot be changed), the hook is neutral (I like ALT0 the best), short enough, interesting, is properly sourced with an inline source citation, that the article itself is adequately sourced and written in adequate English (a little too much short sentences and I placed the galleries at the end to make it easier to read). I suggest also:
@Johnbod: You may not be reviewing this, and in fact Elisa.rolle has done that, but perhaps you could formally approve the ALT2 hook so that this nomination can move forward. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:09, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
I don't see why this is needed at all, but ALT2 looks ok. Johnbod (talk) 12:43, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
