Spike Albrecht

[edit]

Spike Albrecht

  • 5x expanded by TonyTheTiger (talk). Self nominated at 03:24, 28 January 2014 (UTC).
  • Reviewed against the criteria:
  • long enough - 2591 characters (417 words) "readable prose size"
→3564 characters more than meets the requirement.
  • prose only expanded fourfold since expansion began, 652 characters to 2591, but it is a BLP and is now far better sourced
  • Within policy - neutral, cites sources with inline citations, at least one per paragraph, free of close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations and plagiarism
  • Hook is interesting, neutral, 170 characters, and formatted properly, but:
→ it does not have an inline citation in the article.
→ both ALTs are interesting and have excellent citations but I think I'd have to go for ALT1, simply because it is 200 characters and ALT2 is 247.
  • QPQ – waiting for nominator to review another nominee.
  • The infobox image could be used because it is free and shows up well:
  • Grrreat article, just needs a citation for the hook, a QPQ review, and maybe a bit more prose, although I'm willing to accept it as it stands. Green Giant (talk) 04:28, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the quick response. All set, just needs your review. Green Giant (talk) 07:23, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
  • All done, ready for promotion. ALT1? Green Giant (talk) 18:43, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
  • Note: in the same edit while making the above comment, Green Giant changed the initial icon at the top of this review to . I have merely copied Green Giant's tick here to make the approval more immediately obvious. MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 21:54, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
