  • I would like a second set of reviewer eyes on this article. Date, length, no copyright violations - all check out. Because of the timeliness of the article, and its importance in world events, I think it would be good for a second person to also review this. Maile66 (talk) 21:41, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Date, length, phrasing etc. all check out and the article seems adequately complete. I am concerned that the hook is drawing an inference not supported by the reference directly. The news article does not state that he was in solitary because of the email, perhaps it was something that happened while incarcerated ? Peripitus (Talk) 01:26, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Good to go with Alt1. As noted above, everything checks out. Maile66 (talk) 22:47, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
