@Johnbod: Thank you for putting in right direction.Is it OK now?Whispyhistory (talk) 06:24, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
the article is long enough, is neutral, contains no close paraphrasing or copyvio (only names/positions that cannot be changed), the hook is neutral (I like ALT0 the best), short enough, interesting, is properly sourced with an inline source citation, that the article itself is adequately sourced and written in adequate English (a little too much short sentences and I placed the galleries at the end to make it easier to read). I suggest also:
- ALT2:... that the History of Medicine Society, founded by Sir William Osler in 1912, is one of the oldest in the world? --Elisa.rolle (talk) 22:27, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
- @Johnbod: You may not be reviewing this, and in fact Elisa.rolle has done that, but perhaps you could formally approve the ALT2 hook so that this nomination can move forward. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:09, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
