• " 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang." bit sea of blue for me. You could put Yang's name first on that and then list his positions i.e. "authored by Andrew Yang, ....".

• "It was published by Hachette Books on..." in the US I imagine, so please state that.

• Often wonder why we need the refs in the lead, the material there should be reiterated and expanded upon in the main body and can be referenced there.

• "made publicly available in September 2018." do you mean for paid download?
  • No, it's free on Youtube (see the citation). Also clarified. Bobbychan193 (talk) 19:49, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
• "the economy, " once again, it's English language Wikipedia so that should be explicit in stating the economy of the US.

• " including providing a" ->" ing ing, perhaps "including the provision of a"?

• "increasing unemployment can lead to violent protests" well that's a given...
  • The average reader might not think that's a given. Plus, it's what's written in Yang's book, so it gives context. Bobbychan193 (talk) 19:49, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
• "values".[7][2]" refs in numerical order.
  •  Done Bobbychan193 (talk) 19:49, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
• "useful primers on the case for a" UBI -> odd place to close the quote..., maybe [UBI] inside the quote instead?

Not much really to add, I was initially worried about balance, but there seems to be a reasonable selection of views in the reception section, and everything else is pretty trivial, so feel free to let me know as and when you might have addressed them.

@The Rambling Man: Just finished the first round of fixes. Bobbychan193 (talk) 19:49, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

There's nothing more required here as far as I can see. The article easily meets GA criteria so I'm promoting it. Good work. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 16:06, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
