- article is new enough - put live on 7/31
- long enough - javascript kit shows 3,956 characters excluding infobox and references
- well sourced - however, please check the references from the Wasatch Wave, Salt Lake Tribune, Salt Lake Telegram, Grantsville Reflex and Deseret News. I get an error message when I try to view it. I can't view the American National Biography reference but AGF.
- @Dwkaminski: Thanks for the review so far! We looked into the references, and we think that we were able to fix them for public viewing. Please let us know if you are able to access them now. RGreen (BYU) (talk) 16:32, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
- @RGreen (BYU): Thanks for the change to the newspaper references. I am able to access them now. Dwkaminski (talk) 21:02, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
- plagiarism free - Earwig's copyvio detector shows 0.0%!
- Picture is a little fuzzy but I think is OK
@RGreen (BYU): I've completed my review and listed it as maybe. Take a look at some of the possible alternate hooks and let me know if you think we can make it stronger. Great first submission! Dwkaminski (talk) 13:29, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Dwkaminski: Thanks so much for taking the time to review my article! I really like the second alternate hook you suggested and would be completely happy moving forward with that one. Thank you for your help! RGreen (BYU) (talk) 15:10, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
- Made change to ALT2 and approving. Congratulations! Dwkaminski (talk) 15:50, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
