QPQ: None required.

Overall: Article is new enough since it was moved to the mainspace on August 14, and nominated within seven days. Length is adequate. The article is neutral in tone. The nominator has less than five DYK credits, therefore QPQ is not required. There is a citation needed tag in the "Early life and family" section. I'm curious if this is necessary, since the next two citations appear to be the source. Perhaps merging the two notes is best? There are also citation needed tags in the "Other appointments" and "Research and development" sections to be resolved. Earwig has flagged substantial similarities with this blog site. I'm curious why almost every word in the hook is capitalized. I think that "Dean in English Higher Education" should be written as "dean in English higher education". The hook is interesting, but the cited source says says "possibly" and not definiitively that he was the first black person to hold such a position. I'm also curious about the license of the image of Henriques. The metadata says the image was created on January 3, 2017, but the caption in the infobox says circa 1950s. Something does not add up here. I also note that the image in question is the only contribution on the Commons by its uploader, whose user name matches the co-author of a book on the subject. Seems like the image may have come from the book, it may have been produced by someone else in the 1950s, and the author might have had permission to use it? I'm going to inquire on WT:DYK on this question. Flibirigit (talk) 23:53, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@ARC-Librarian and Flibirigit:Looking at the article, there are citation needed tags that are followed by citation. Are these tags still needed, or can they be removed? Are the other issues above addressed? Z1720 (talk) 14:52, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have already asked this question above. The nominator has not edited since this nomination was made. No issues have been addressed. The nomination will likely need to be adopted by someone to proceed, unless the nominator returns. Flibirigit (talk) 22:32, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Given the issues, unless another editor adopts this or the nominator returns, it may be time to close the nomination as abandoned. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 01:22, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
