  • ... that a collision between the French ship Euryale and an American vessel at San Francisco ended in a US Supreme Court case? "United States Supreme Court THE SAPPHIRE(1870) Argued: Decided: December 1, 1870" from: "United States Supreme Court THE SAPPHIRE(1870) Argued: Decided: December 1, 1870".

  • Article is new enough and long enough. I am a little concerned about how #4 is used, seems like we are analyzing a primary source (court ruling) there, even if it seems correct. I don't have access to the other sources. No copyvio or plagiarism that I can see. Each hook seems roughly equal to me, the third is perhaps the most interesting. Seems neutral and moderately interesting. QPQ is done. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 15:03, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Jo-Jo Eumerus, thanks for the review. I've tightened the wording of the article a little to make it clear that the statements are taken from the court records. I think we are OK to use the proceedings of the court this way as long as it is clearly attributed. I am happy to get other opinions on this - Dumelow (talk) 15:48, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No comments so far. I'll see if Fram has an opinion on the matter, but if no problems subsist we can probably approve this one. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 15:20, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
