- ... that Slovak periodical Svedectvo claimed that the neo-Nazi Kotleba party "is the first authentic right-wing party to get into parliament and dedicate its program to defending the Christian values of our state"?
- ALT1:... that the Slovak periodical Svedectvo receives a government subsidy, despite publishing apologist articles defending convicted war criminals?

- New enough, long enough. The hooks are not neutral. The tone of the article is not neutrally written either. I don't know how to fix that. --evrik (talk) 15:33, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
- Asking for a second opinion. --evrik (talk) 15:33, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Evrik and Buidhe: This is still not neutral, has the nominator/article creator been notified? Rephrasing content throughout should hopefully clear this up. Kingsif (talk) 17:00, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- It isn't helpful just to handwave that "it's not neutral". Without explaining why you think so or what you think should be changed, there's no way to fix the alleged problem. buidhe 21:56, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- The breathless prose seems agitated. It seems more like a novella than a neutral history. --evrik (talk) 22:16, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- I disagree. Again, it would be helpful if you pointed out to specific instances, examples and/or suggestions for improvement. buidhe 03:12, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- ALT1a:... that the Slovak periodical Svedectvo receives a government subsidy, despite publishing articles defending convicted war criminals?
- -Passing ALT1. Article was recent enough, obviously long enough, neutral, hook is cited in the article, no copyvio/closeparaphrasing (excepting quotes & bald facts), the hooks are within character limit, accurate, sourced, and defintely interesting to a broad audience, central most of Europe. While I symapathise with the objections, it would be a mistake to equate negativity to non-neutrality. If the article reads negatively, perhaps that's because no reliable sources can be found defending the subject. ALT2 by a margin? serial # 12:16, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- I noticed you changed the hook. Are you passing Alt1, or proposing Alt1a? --evrik (talk) 13:57, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Since the only difference between ALT1 and ALT1a is the dropping of the word "apologist" in the latter, there is no need for a further review of ALT1a. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:02, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
