The article is new and long enough at 3,091 chars during nomination time. "Murder" section, the first paragraph of section "Arrest and execution" are lacking an inline ref. Ref #3 says "hanged around 4:30 AM" not at "4:30 AM" explicitly. Ref #4 is WP:LR. In the second paragraph of "Reaction to the execution" section, the opening quatation mark is missing. Earwig's Copyvio Detector reports high-rated copyvios on four refs. The article is neutral. I prefer ALT1-jook as more interesting, however, the article says 28 bullets while the hook 25. No refs at all are given for hook facts "25 bullets" and "Asia Bibi". QPQ was done. Acceptance will be done after addressing above issues. CeeGee 11:23, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

@CeeGee: I have made some changes. You can make it better yourself. Reviewer can make the minor changes himself.-Musa Talk 16:55, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

Since ALT1 is no more supported anymore, the original hook has to be taken now in consideration. The paragraph "Murder" remains unreferenced despite mentioning above. Section "Arrest and execution": ref #3 and #4 do not suppert the sentences preceeding. Ref #8 supports the sentences preceeding partly. Ref #9 does not support its sentence either. The mentioned refs need to be placed correctly. Musa Raza! Thank you for your suggestion about copyediting by me. As you know the matter better, I think you can do it better. Besides, the issues are not so "minor". CeeGee 18:59, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

I'm not experienced enough to make an article to Good article criteria that's why I asked you. I'll only do the changes you mentioned.-Musa Talk 19:46, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

There is no obligation for a DYK-nom article to have GA-status. It has only to fulfill the requirements as listed above, under "criteria". Waiting for your copyediting, which would address the issues mentioned. CeeGee 12:11, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay. I'm doing some copy-editing on the article, so just wait for some more hours. Thanks. --Captain Assassin! ^{«T ♦ C ♦ G»} 15:56, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

All issues are addressed now. Good to go. The delay in my approval was due to lack of a clear note here mentioning the work was done. Sorry. CeeGee 06:12, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
