  • This article is new enough and long enough. The article is neutral and I detected no close-paraphrasing issues. The hook is not inaccurate, but should it not mention girls, who are the whole point of the project? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:21, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Do you mean we should just say "500 girls", or "500 middle school girls"? Yoninah (talk) 12:54, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
  • "500 middle school girls" I would have thought. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:55, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
