Black Metropolis
[edit]- ... that Black Metropolis, a foundational American sociology text by St. Clair Drake and Horace R. Cayton, Jr., resulted from the work of as many as 200 researchers, typists and copyists?
Created by Alanscottwalker (talk). Self-nominated at 20:31, 15 February 2016 (UTC).
The article was created Feb 11 and nominated on Feb 15 so it is new enough. It is long enough at 3704 characters "readable prose". It is neutral in tone and cites sources with inline citations. Most sources are offline but I was able to access several via my university library, including the one containing the hook fact, and found no plagiarism, copyvio or similar concerns. The hook is interesting and properly formatted, neutral and cited inline. QPQ has been done. There is no image. HazelAB (talk) 14:10, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
