• Hi BeanieFan11, review follows: article moved to mainspace on 2 October and exceeds minimum length; article is cited inline throughout to what look to be reliable sources; the sources are either in French or paywalled so not much I can check on paraphrasing but Earwig is clear; QPQ has been carried out; I've struck ALT1, although it is supported by the source the overall length of his tenure was just shy of 22 years; on ALT0 the source and article don't say "first French senator from Saint Pierre and Miquelon" but first to represent the place in the Senate. Unlikely I know but it leaves open the possibility that someone from there was elected to the senate as a representative of somewhere else. Perhaps AL2 below works? Happy to consider alternatives. - Dumelow (talk) 17:12, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
• ALT2: ... that Henri Claireaux was the first representative for Saint Pierre and Miquelon elected to the French Senate?
  • @Dumelow: I'm fine with ALT2. BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:36, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, I think it technically needs another reviewer to approve - Dumelow (talk) 05:47, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

• Added cats: Université Laval alumni, French military personnel
• Lead needs expanded.
  • Expanded.
• I guess you couldn't find anything else on his early life like high school? The paragraph says he was born and then jumps straight to him receiving an elementary certificate.
  • Didn't see anything.
• "received a higher certificate" What's that mean?
  • To be honest, I don't know – according to the Senate website: "il obtient le brevet supérieur, après trois ans d'études à l'Institut Pierre de Luxembourg. [he obtained the higher certificate after three years of study at the Pierre Institute in Luxembourg.]" Not sure exactly what it means...
• "sadness in that" remove in
  • Done.
• "Subsequently Claireaux and his followers" comma are subsequently
  • Done.
• "In 2005, a memorial stamp was issued of Claireaux" Who issued it?
  • Saint Pierre and Miquelon, I think? At least according to the StampData.com website. Added to the article.

I think that's everything. Nice research. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 12:34, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
