  • Final free-QPQ nom from nominator. Article of sufficient length and newness. Hook interesting and cited in source (well, quoted inline). Earwig detects no copyvio aside from again direct quotes. Good to go. Juxlos (talk) 06:12, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Thanks for creating this. I've read some interesting first person accounts that mention the women Russian exiles. Please tag me once the missing citation is added. Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 01:33, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Mary Mark Ockerbloom: I'm confused as to why this claim needs a citation? She collaborated on Lavrov's Vpered, was involved in a Narodnik organisation, was tried in two mass trials of Narodnik revolutionaries and actively organised with other Narodniks for decades. Is it not exceedingly obvious that this was the movement she was involved in? --Grnrchst (talk) 08:12, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Grnrchst: Yes, but all of that relies on the reader having knowledge of what that movement was and who it involved. For a Wikipedia reader who follows the hook to a topic that they aren't knowledgeable about, none of that is obvious. So I would suggest adding a sentence or phrase later in the body that in which you explicitly use the term Narodnik, with a citation to something that clarifies or at least uses that term.

Brindille1 (talk) 03:49, 30 April 2024 (UTC). This was not expanded five-fold in the past week (since 24 April), but great work on the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Me Da Wikipedian (talk • contribs) [reply]

  • Full review:
General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: None required.

Overall: Article was nominated within a week of being expanded fivefold. Article coverage is neutral with the prose being consistently backed by reliable, high-quality sources formatted with inline citations. Earwig shows no copyright violations; top result only borrows spoken quotes. Though it's rather embarrassing to see as a Revs fan, ALT0 is unfortunately the most interesting hook out of the bunch, with ALT2 being second-best. All hooks are sourced and mentioned in the prose. No QPQ requirement necessary for this user. Here's to hoping the Revs can at least get the #1 draft pick next year... in the meantime, this nom is good to go!

  • 5x expansion has been done, sources check out, QPQ completed too. Only minor gripe is that the hook is rather vague but everything looks okay otherwise. Cheers, KINGofLETTUCE 👑 🥬 13:06, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Don Johnson (basketball)[edit]

  • Source: All-American at UCLA (Los Angeles Times) "Eaton and Swen Nater are Johnson’s legacy--two raw seven-footers, with little or no basketball credentials before Cypress, who spent two years with Johnson and went on to lucrative careers in the NBA." (Los Angeles Times) "But when the massive Eaton enters the game, UCLA will shift to a low-post offense and the Bruin fast break will slow to a snail's pace. Eaton is a 23-year-old former master auto mechanic who learned his basketball at Cypress (Calif.) Community College from the same coach—former UCLA backcourt star Don Johnson—who sent the Bruins Swen Nater." (Sports Illustrated) "Not only did both Nater and Eaton play in the NBA, each still holds league records." (Cypress College)
