  • Nice article, DYK fact sourced and long enough. Tick Chienlit (talk)
@Chienlit: Please could you add some detail in your review that you have considered the DYK criteria (e.g. new enough, within policy, NPOV, no plagiarism/copyright violation, the hook is interesting, sourced inline, that a sufficient QPQ has been provided etc.) and add the relevant tick e.g. (if you can read the ref), or if you are assuming good faith.

Cowlibob, I am repeating this comment here because the overbearing template refuses to even display my original. To wit: Worthwhile article for Dyk. All red crosses convince me to never try helping the ridiculously overproceduralised, hypercontrolling, dyk again. It seems to be beyond my brain's 'daily diminishing' capability.
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

@Chienlit: Take a step back. I did not say that you had to use the template. I don't. For reviews, it's good to show evidence that you have considered the criteria so that inappropriate articles don't make it to the prep/queue and then get dropped again. Cowlibob (talk) 22:11, 22 October 2022 (UTC)
Unfortunately, the bot takes this nominations as having passed due to the icons above; placing the "?" icon solely to prevent the bot from moving the nomination prematurely to the Approved page when it hasn't been approved. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:49, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
  • I've gone ahead and given this a review of my own, to keep the process moving. I don't know if there's a way to do this, but I suggest that since Chienlit did make a good faith effort to conduct a review, they be given the QPQ credit. Article is long enough and new enough. No problems with WP:BLP or WP:NPOV . Earwig flags some things, but they're just some very long titles of sources used in references, so no WP:COPYVIO issues. Everything is referenced to just two sources, but they look like WP:RS and adequate for a historical topic such as this (WP:DYKSG D12). The hook is interesting and the facts are confirmed by the source, but it needs an in-line citation at the end of a sentence which presents the fact(s). -- RoySmith (talk) 13:46, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
@RoySmith: I've updated the article with 2 extra inline citations. I think the attribution is clear now. ๐•ฑ๐–Ž๐–ˆ๐–†๐–Ž๐–† (talk) 14:07, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
I'm still not seeing an in-line citation for "spent two years in exile in Holland where he published a defence of his actions". -- RoySmith (talk) 14:23, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
@RoySmith: It's in the "Works" section. ๐•ฑ๐–Ž๐–ˆ๐–†๐–Ž๐–† (talk) 07:20, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
