QPQ: - Not done
Overall: Article was nominated within 7 days of reaching Good Article status. Article is more than 1,500 words long in prose. No problems with sourcing and plagiarism. Earwig picked up an "unlikely" copyright violation of 28.1%. QPQ still needs to be done. I don't feel like the hook is interesting as being advised to take a different career is pretty common; is there any way to rephrase that or find a different hook? lullabying (talk) 07:18, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing. Would one of the following be better?

DYK... American political scientist and China specialist Oriana Skylar Mastro was inspired to write her first book after participating in a military war game simulation? (source: https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2021/11/combining-military-service-scholarship)

DYK... Oriana Skylar Mastro, a Stanford political scientist, joined the U.S. Air Force as a PhD student to better understand military issues in the Asia Pacific? (source: https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2021/11/combining-military-service-scholarship)

I like "ALT2: ... that Oriana Skylar Mastro, a Stanford political scientist, joined the U.S. Air Force as a PhD student to better understand military issues in the Asia Pacific? (source: https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2021/11/combining-military-service-scholarship)." All that's left to do is your QPQ and I think you're good to go. lullabying (talk) 00:49, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
