Hello, I'll be reviewing this article shortly! Fritzmann (message me) 01:39, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
This looks like it'll be a pretty straightforward review, I am using the 1982 and 1987 articles as comparison and on a first run-through I don't see any major issues. Fritzmann (message me) 17:17, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
Prose
edit- "After winning re-election and serving a term" serving a second term?
- The very last sentence of the lead is a bit confusing to me. I don't have any background knowledge so the chronology is a touch blurry as a first-time reader
- I would start background with the first time Tabai was elected, and perhaps a sentence or two on who he is
- "The short-lived political party Wiia I-Kiribati was created afterwards" I'm not understanding the correlation here; is this a party he created because of low support or an opposition party?
- I split the sentence starting "Wiia I-Kiribati justified its decision..." let me know if it looks alright
- Is there a possible redlink for the 1980 labour strike?
- "was allegedly weary with politics" Who alleged this? Attribution is likely warranted
- Is there any information on the platforms of Teannaki or Tentoa?
- I notice the other election year articles have more information on the candidates' campaign. Was there a lack of campaigning in this election because it followed a vote of no confidence? If so, are there any sources that state that so it can be mentioned?
References
edit- The 1982 and 1987 articles have a news piece from Pacific Islands Monthly on the results; have you checked to see if any such sources exist for this year?
- Schutz 1983 verifies its claims; Van Trease 1993 verifies the election statistics at ref 10. Neither spotcheck yielded issues so assuming good faith on the references I don't have access to.
Summary
editJust a few small prose fixes and a reference query to address, and then this will all be good to promote. This was a pleasant read and review, thanks for an excellent article! Fritzmann (message me) 17:17, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
