Wingfield W. Watson
[edit]- ... that Wingfield W. Watson was an Irish immigrant to the United States who became a religious leader of the Strangites, and wrote several publications in support of their beliefs?

- Comment: I expanded the article beginning on May 16th.
5x expanded by Amgisseman(BYU) (talk). Self-nominated at 20:50, 17 May 2016 (UTC).
The article is long enough at 4144 characters readable prose and was 5x expanded on May 16, the day before it was nominated, so it is new enough. Earwig's detector found copyvio unlikely and after comparing the article with its source material I am confident it is free of copyvio issues. The article is neutral in tone and cites sources with inline citations. The hook is neutral in tone, properly formatted and interesting but there are a couple of issues that need to be addressed: First, you should specify in the hook that Watson immigrated to the US. Second, although all three components of the hook (Irish immigrant to US, religious leader, and several publications) are in the article, each fact also needs to be supported by an inline citation at the end of the sentence in which it appears. At present none of them has a citation at the end of the sentence. QPQ has been done and there is no image to worry about. HazelAB (talk) 14:16, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for reviewing my article. I added the inline citations after the end of the sentence where each fact appears from the hook. Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 19:10, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Amgisseman(BYU): Thanks! What do you think of my suggestion that you mention in the hook that Watson immigrated to the US? The worldwide Wikipedia audience wouldn't assume that was his destination. HazelAB (talk) 20:03, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
- @HazelAB:I changed the wording in the article but forgot to change it in the hook. Thank you! I just made that edit. Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 20:10, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
