• Earwig flagged this. There is a large copy/paste in this piece. --evrik ^(talk) 19:41, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
  • It's fine, since it's a public domain source (Californian government). – Illegitimate Barrister (talk • contribs), 20:51, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
    • Please somehow set aside all the copy/paste stuff as quotes. --evrik ^(talk) 21:48, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
      • Article has now been rewritten, so the copy-paste from PD source is less direct. Length, date, hook ok. Ideally File:Flag_of_San_Diego_County,_California.png should be added to the nomination as well. However, the nominator needs to provide a QPQ for this to be ticked. --Soman (talk) 11:47, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

• New enough, long enough. The hook is "meh". No QPQ done. Large amount of quoted text needs better clarification. I'm not going to review this article anymore. --evrik ^(talk) 16:24, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
• New reviewer needed. --evrik ^(talk) 16:24, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

    • QPQ done. – Illegitimate Barrister (talk • contribs), 05:08, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
      • • Sorry, but where is the QPQ? You must add a link here in the template somewhere. --Soman (talk) 10:47, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

I just went through Illegitimate Barrier's contributions. He has only edited two DYK nomination pages since May 2020, this one and this edit to Kirby: King of Comics, which absolutely does not count as a QPQ. This needs a full QPQ, and I would suggest stepping on it.--Launchballer 13:23, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

• QPQ done here. – Illegitimate Barrister (talk • contribs), 17:46, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

That's not a QPQ.--Launchballer 18:35, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Rejecting hook because of lack of QPQ. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 00:16, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
