Overall: @Sakiv There is a need to increase the length of the article. Prose size (text only): 1385 characters (236 words) "readable prose size" RV (talk) 15:13, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I added another paragraph.Sakiv (talk) 12:13, 23 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Long enough now. I think the hook is interesting enough too. BorgQueen (talk) 15:45, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Sakiv and RAJIVVASUDEV: I am unable to confirm the hook with the given source. I do not read in the source that the brothers are serving life sentences. It is possible I am missing something, so ping me when you have an answer. Thanks. Bruxton (talk) 19:17, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi, you can find it here. ('All of his siblings are imprisoned as well, facing life sentences').Sakiv (talk) 19:29, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks @Sakiv: please add references which state this to the end of that sentence in the article. Bruxton (talk) 21:29, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Sakiv: we need an accurate hook. Here is what the two references say "Five of Abu Hmeid’s brothers have spent time in Israeli prisons for their role in violence" and "All of his siblings are imprisoned as well, facing life sentences." Facing and serving is a difference. Please address this so that I can move the nomination forward. Bruxton (talk) 23:49, 1 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Bruxton: here is a Hebrew reference that clearly shows that they were sentenced to life imprisonment.Sakiv (talk) 20:02, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Sakiv: that works! I removed my objection. ~~Next we need to put that~~ (I added the reference) in the article since it is the only one that is explicit. Bruxton (talk) 20:05, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
