QPQ: Done.

Overall: New GA article. While I prefer the first hook, both are interesting and sourced in the article. QPQ complete. Earwig picks up on a few cases where the wording can likely be tweaked to avoid close paraphrasing (here [6] and [7]). Phrases like "reported on meetings of Zionist organizations" and "received a rich Jewish and secular education" Otherwise, good to go. TJMSmith (talk) 14:42, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done! –Kyuko (talk) 15:39, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

my concerns above are now addressed. Also mentioning that there are several high quality images of Shapiro to choose from (in addition to the one in this nomination). I recommend including an image for this hook. Marking as reviewed. TJMSmith (talk) 15:47, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kyuko, I went to promote this hook this evening, but see that there are several uncited paragraphs in the "Family and education" section. Can you please provide sources for them and ping me when you've done so? Thanks! MeegsC (talk) 21:11, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
