Article created 21 January. No issues of copyvio or plagiarism. All sources appear reliable- I assume that an Oxford PhD thesis is acceptable? Hooks are interesting and sourced. QPQ is done. Looks good. Thriley (talk) 18:49, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- @Thriley: I would assume the same. The PhD thesis appears to have been supervised by a fairly well respected professor who has multiple books on related topics and appears to be well respected. Also, it appears that a portion of this thesis were presented at the 24th Sociolinguistics Symposium. University of Ghent in 2022. Sohom (talk) 19:28, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
