[edit]- ... that the Democratic controlled 25th Arizona Territorial Legislature overrode vetoes to bills creating a literacy test for voters and authorizing segregation of "African" students?

- Review Good to go! New article, timely nominated. Meets core policies and guidelines, and in particular: is neutral; cites sources with inline citations; is free of close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations and plagiarism. DYK nomination was timely and article is easily long enough. Every paragraph is cited. No copyright violations or too close paraphrasing. In passing, I note that I did not have access to the offline sources and WP:AGF. Earwig's copy violation detector: 25th Arizona Territorial Legislature report gives it a clean bill. Hook is hooky enough, I think, and relates directly to the essence of the article. As this was a hotly partisan (and the final) session of the territorial legislature, there were other interesting activities that might be 'hookworthy.' The literacy test (reading any paragraph of the constitution) was aimed at Mexican immigrants, and is a timely issue today. I would like to see the picture used in the article used in the hook, but I leave that to the nominator/creator. In any event, interesting, decently neutral, and appropriately cited. QPQ done. Very nicely done! 7&6=thirteen (☎) 14:44, 26 November 2015 (UTC)
