  • Symbol question.svg The article is long enough (2262 B). Hooks character count is within the legal limits. They cited immediately at the end of the sentences but you must find better source for ALT1. Please add citation for lead sentences. Also, copy edit the article. QPQ none required.Saff V.

  • Notified nominator on their talk page. — Maile (talk) 23:38, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
  • Symbol delete vote.svg No response from the author whatsoever, even though he was pinged on his talk page. by Maile66. This article has not been edited since February 22, so the original feedback of Saff V. has not been implemented, almost two weeks after it was posted here. It's time to close this.—♦♦ AMBER(ЯʘCK) 11:37, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svg I think it would be fair to question the original review by User:Saff V. before closing. Are the problems only with the ALT1? If so, is the original hook okay to use? The normal protocol is to strike out the offending hook, as only one is needed per nomination. Additionally, leads do not require citations if its information is discussed with references later on in the article. While I'm neccessary stating the the original hook is okay nor that the lead has actually met this parameter, Saff may have covered this in the original review and therefore this nomination may well have passed ages ago...

  • Symbol delete vote.svg I think Saff V brought up fair points. This article really needed a copyedit, as he noted already on March 1. Since then, no work on the article has been done - the last edit was there was performed on February 22. Besides, ALT1 has incorrect grammar: we can't entertain that either.—♦♦ AMBER(ЯʘCK) 12:36, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
