Article is new enough and long enough. It's neutrally written, and the sources appear to be reliable. No copyvio detected. I prefer ALT0—this would mean excluding the image, though it would be fine to use. QPQ completed. There's a "lead too short" template box at the top, but it's not a dispute, so I think it's good to go. Cstickel(byu) (talk) 21:40, 19 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Whispyhistory, could we switch your first hook to active rather than passive voice, e.g.

ALT2 ... that Frederic Growse finished the first complete, illustrated, English translation of the Ramayana of Tulsidas in 1883?

I don't think the location is necessary, and ALT2 eliminates the duplication of complete/completed. MeegsC (talk) 14:44, 29 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

@MeegsC:...fine with me...thanks for taking the time to look. Whispyhistory (talk) 17:11, 29 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
