  • Article is new enough (14 December), long enough (1,585). In the " Eight of these markers are 4 feet..." sentence only seven species are mentioned (which is the missing one?). Why is the Miss Kerala marker bigger than the others? Earwig also flags the following "in collaboration with the Beypore Port department, the district administration of Kozhikode, and" as a copyvio. Could the sentence be rephrased? Cowlibob (talk) 15:07, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
@Nizil Shah: Courtesy ping for nominator to return to article. Cowlibob (talk) 12:52, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
  • I've also had a look at this article. I've moved it (and adjusted this nomination page) as per the following rationale: "Nothing in the sources indicates that the definite article is part of the monument's name. Adjust as per WP:THE." I further note that what is currently reference number 4 (pointing to aninews.in) is non-specific and the URL needs to be updated to point to the relevant article referred to.

    • @Cowlibob: Thanks for review. Added the missing eighth Seahorse. I don't know why Miss Kerala marker is bigger but probably because it is native species while others are not native. That copyvio sentence is reworded. Please review futher. @Schwede66: Thanks. aninews.in url seem fixed now. -Nizil (talk) 14:04, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
@Nizil Shah: Thanks for the changes. To complete my review, the article is NPOV, information is cited with enough inline citations and is free of obvious copyvio, paraphrasing or plagiarism. Adequate QPQ provided. I've made some more amendments to the article as the above hooks are not actually accurate (have struck them). The monument is dedicated to nine marine species (not just fish), the dugong is a mammal for example. All that is left for approval is an appropriate hook, I'm offering a ALT2 but this will need to be approved by someone else if the nominator is happy with it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cowlibob (talk • contribs) 14:07, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
  • ALT2: ... that the Marine Cemetery, made from plastic bottles collected from an Indian beach, is dedicated to nine endangered marine species? "Kozhikode's new marine cemetery is a call to action to save the world". Architectural Digest India. 13 December 2019. Retrieved 14 December 2019.
  • While I like Alt2, I think the prose is clunky and somewhat like an advertisement. --evrik (talk) 17:13, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
  • I will note that one of the species the monument is dedicated to is not a marine species, but a riverine one - Miss Kerala. Suggest either one of ALT3 or ALT4. Spokoyni (talk) 11:04, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
  • ALT3: ... that the Marine Cemetery is made from plastic bottles collected from an Indian beach?
  • ALT4: ... that the Marine Cemetery, made from plastic bottles collected from an Indian beach, is dedicated to nine endangered water-dwelling species?
I'm tentatively approving both ALT3 and ALT4, with the rest of the review per Cowlibob; however, the final hook approval is on hold pending a possible copyedit of the "History" section. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:52, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
@Nizil Shah: Suggesting that a copyedit be done to the article; the nomination will be approved once this is accomplished. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:15, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
@Narutolovehinata5:,  Done. Copyediting completed. -Nizil (talk) 11:07, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
Rest of the review per Cowlibob. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:50, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
