  • I think it would be helpful if you explicitly listed what you have checked, ie: date expanded, article length, verifiability of hooks and suitability of prose, copyvio checks etc - otherwise the prep builders may be suspicious and send it back. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 09:11, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Actually there are a few problems:
  • Duplicate links to Marlborough Street Magistrates Court and Regents Street
Done Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:29, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
  • "curtailed" seems unclear, "shortened" seems clearer to many people.

  • The first three paragraphs in the last section are too short.
I don't believe (unless @The Rambling Man: can clarify) that that's part of the DYK criteria, and the trials and tribulations of Oscar Wilde are best left to his own article. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:29, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
  • The second image requires an US PD tag.
No idea, ask @Philafrenzy: who uploaded it on Commons. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:29, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
  • Full review needed that explicitly lists what was checked, since even the re-review doesn't do this, mentioning some non-DYK criteria (this is not a GAN, and paragraph size is not mentioned for DYK). As best I can see, the second image in the article does at present have a US PD license, but the reviewer should double check. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:52, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
