Hello Piotrus. I'm reviewing your DYK. It definitely fits the criteria as was expanded over 5x and was nominated within 7 days. I've read through the article and it looks like a fascinating topic for a DYK, but there are a couple of minor concerns with C/E, such as "Major activist of the interwar period" and in the first para the use of "It had" or "It was" – it would be beneficial if these could be fixed. Apart from that, the hook looks good. The source doesn't seem to cover this DYK though; would you mind paraphrasing?

I've made a suggestion below.

Thank you. I fixed the activist->activists and I'll ping User:Nihil novi, if he would be so kind and give it a quick c/e pass. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 02:39, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

Great. Were you also able to find a more concrete source? Hdolf (talk) 17:49, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

@Evrik: Sorry, seems I missed the previous request. What exactly do you want a source for The linked source does state "C. zapisał też chlubną kartę w okresie Holokaustu, będąc m.in. centr. instytucją opieki nad dziećmi w getcie warszawskim." (maybe the Google translate doesn't do a good job here, due to abbreviations but it states that "C. = Centos wrote a great page for itself during the Holocaust when among others it was the central institution for taking care of children in the Warsaw ghetto"). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:58, 21 August 2020 (UTC)

@Piotrus: Thanks for clearing that up. Either is ready to go. Hdolf (talk) 23:00, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
