Dennis may not himself have engaged with these issues, but he was extremely well read, and worked his way through all the latest developments. In the year 1975 he published all of twenty book reviews in Modern Language Review. This gave rise to what is called the Lex Green, according to which the editors of Modern Language Review permit a maximum of three reviews by any one person in a year.
- ALT1:... that Dennis Howard Green was such a productive book reviewer for the Modern Language Review that they implemented a rule called Lex Green, which limits the amount of reviews per person to three per year?

Improved to Good Article status by Krakkos (talk). Self-nominated at 11:38, 28 February 2021 (UTC).
Approve Alt1 This is a GA review passed article that did so on the 28th and nominated on the same day, so is new enough. Obviously, it is long enough because of that. The article reads neutrally and has proper usage of in-line citations (again, unsurprising for a GA). The copyvio tool found no issues as well. I'm going to go with Alt1 as being the more interesting one and it is properly cited in-line, so no problems there. The QPQ has been done and there's no image to review. Looks good to go!
