5x expanded by SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk). Self-nominated at 16:36, 11 January 2023 (UTC).

• Expansion and its timing is ok. Article is long enuf, seems neutral, except that "show" might be better as "suggest", & is well-written. Both hooks check out - ALT1 is probably more enticing, but I think "show" needs changing. Is a QPQ needed? If not, you need to say. Earwig finds that there is a passage from an HBS page that I think is too close:
• Article: "... how best to ensure the stability of the financial system, and Greenwood oversaw research on bank capital and liquidity management, on the nature of bank runs in the modern financial system, and on the unprecedented growth of the financial sector prior to the crisis;..."
• HBS: "how best to ensure the stability of the financial system. Researchers at Harvard have led groundbreaking research on bank capital and liquidity management, on the nature of bank runs in the modern financial system, and on the unprecedented growth of the financial sector prior to the crisis. ... that financial instability often follows periods when financial institutions, like investors and policy makers, have underestimated risks."

- some rewriting needed. The rest of the article is ok. There's no ref on his being "British-American", or being born in Belgium.

Thanks for those Johnbod. Definitely agree with suggest, and I've corrected the HBS passage. Best, SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 19:11, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

Johnbod, status report? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 21:44, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

The passage I highlighted ok has been changed ok. Still the case that "There's no ref on his being "British-American", or being born in Belgium" but these are not vital for DYK. Is a QPQ needed - please confirm. Otherwise ok. Johnbod (talk) 19:09, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

Johnbod thanks for that. Yes, I emailed Greenwood on his college email to clarify as I couldn't find any details on place of birth/nationality online. Best, SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 19:21, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

And do you need to do a qpq? Johnbod (talk) 04:12, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

Johnbod, I see only two prior nominations by SerAntoniDeMiloni, so no QPQ will be required. A third, the recent PeopleSound, does not count toward the five freebies because it was nominated by someone else (who did their own QPQ); DYK counts by nominator.

Ok thanks. then, GTG. Johnbod (talk) 15:29, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
