@Mondiad: I have added all my comments below: Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 09:57, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

Can we avoid repeating the month in December 25 to December 27, 1918?
The lead should be expanded so that it covers all aspects of the article

Background

Source for the first para?
It may be helpful to add the time period of World War I
made itself a sufficient publicity Should this not be "made for itself"?
"newspaper "The Sun"" I think it should be "newspaper The Sun"
while WWI was not still over You should say "First World War" or any one name consistently throughout the article to refer to WWI.

Preparations

By the end of World War I Consistency in referring to WWI
The first para and the para before "Congress of Tiranë" are apparently sourced.
Some paras should be combined so that the section does not look choppy.
would server as a domestic support Did you mean "serve"?
Albanian newspaper "The Nation" Double quotes not needed
on November 3–4, 1918 Does it mean "from November 3 to 4"? Same for The Congress of Tirana was held on 19–20 December
This half-government should not I think it should be "would not"

Events

Add a citation to the end of the intro.
They came from most Albanian regions, which were under Italian occupation The comma is not needed, I think. I assume it does not mean they came mostly from Albanian regions.
A few subsections after the list would help navigation easier.
In addition to the delegates' list "In addition to these delegates"
in Mars 1921 (vol.54, p. 155) What does this mean?
Vlora is linked after the list, but it is mentioned before the list and should be linked there
self determination Should this not have a dash?
I think the quote in italics would look better in a quote template.
which were expressed by Mehmet Konica's words on December 26 Can this read "which were expressed by Mehmet Konica on December 26 as:"
Hikmet Bey Delvina A redlink, so you should add a few words to introduce this person.
Meanwhile, Hikmet Bey Delvina said...the national meeting. Source?

Italian reaction

Can the Balkans be wikilinked?

Outcome

Apparently unsourced:

(The list would change later, other names...basic issues related to Albania.
First, on the political level,...Albanian state already formed.
Second, it rejected any decision...France and/or England.
The congress rejected point V ...central Albania.

Governmental programme

Despite the decisions taken, Albania was still under foreign occupation. Source?

Aftermath

The new government did not last long... although the head of state issue was still pending. Source?
A retrospective view shows that... the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Source?
A retrospective view shows that Sounds like original research.

There is some trouble in citation 6.

That should be all. Would be glad to pass once these are addressed. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 09:57, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Mondiad: It's already 10 days since the review began. If there is no response within 3 days, I will be forced to fail this nomination. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 13:24, 10 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Too late, I must fail this. I hope this is renominated soon after the above issues have been fixed. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 04:27, 14 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
