Looking forward to reviewing[edit]

I've always wanted to review one of your strike articles; am looking forward to working with you! ~ 🦝 Shushugah (he/him • talk) 14:55, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • I couldn't find any more recent articles and this article includes all the unique/existing sources so satisfies breadth requirement
  • It's neutrally written without any excessive details anywhere
  • I would Wikilink the difference between hourly and salaried employees. Perhaps Salary § United States
    • Wikilink added.
  • "UAW On Strike Unfair Labor Practice" should indicate it's multi line with slash separators "UAW / On Strike / Unfair Labor Practice "
    • Added slash separators.
  • freeze on health care premium could be understood as pause/elimination of premiums when the sources state it's a price freeze, so premium rates couldn't go up, but they still exist.
    • Edited section to address this.

Discrepancy over vote tally[edit]

You already noticed the discrepancy, that Roanoke Times reported 54-40 salaried workers voted, whereas ABC reports 45-40, citing a Facebook post. There's nothing more to do here, but it is worthwhile noting that the Facebook post from the Local says 54-40, suggesting that ABC misattributed it. I've contacted ABC and hopefully they will confirm/correct in their article, after which this Wiki article can be updated. Unfortunately Facebook doesn't work well with Archive.org, so here's the direct Facebook link of the strike tally.

All in all, it's virtually a Good Article already. ~ 🦝 Shushugah (he/him • talk) 00:15, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Shushugah, just wanted to reach out and say that I made some edits to the page to address some of your comments above. Regarding the vote tally discrepancy, I agree that it appears that the Associated Press misattributed the number and that it is actually 54-40, based on the Facebook post they cite in the article. I made an edit to that note and the accompanying text explaining the discrepancy further. Thanks for starting this review, and if you have any further questions, comments, or concerns about the article, please reach out. -JJonahJackalope (talk) 16:00, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
