  • Hi @Zanahary: this article was a really interesting read. It is new enough, long enough, well-sourced, copyvio-free, presentable. Hook is short, interesting, and cited. I have made some minor edits, but I have a couple more major things I want to address before I give it a good to go:
First, with regards to the table of Kere events, in the lede it says that there has not been a year without a Kere event in several decades, but the table would imply that there are some years (e.g. 2018-2019) where there have not been Keres. Is this only a table of notable (or named) Keres? Secondly, since there is already an article on the 2021–2022 famine, is it possible to make the two sections on it in the article briefer? The current state of these sections is that they list a lot of individual reports, without much summarizing. Best, Tenpop421 (talk) 01:13, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
  • Hi Tenpop421! Thanks for the review. Weirdly, the discrepancy you note comes from the same source. I'll just remove the claim about them happening annually lately, absent further clarity. I'll cut down the 2021–2022 section, too. Thanks again! Zanahary 01:41, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
  • It's my pleasure! Ping me when you're done. Best, Tenpop421 (talk) 01:46, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
