- Before you do anything else, the dates in the Mackenzie article need to be rendered WP:MOSNUM compliant. -- Ohc ¡digame!¿que pasa? 14:26, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
- Would you please kindly specify which part(s) of WP:MOSNUM I have not complied with? Thank you. --Clithering (talk) 14:59, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
- What I meant was that the dates in the article lack consistency. Some are in an 'authorised' format (dmy) while there is a huge bunch of imported Chinese refs that are formatted "1963年9月17日" that need to be restated in dmy format. -- Ohc ¡digame!¿que pasa? 17:17, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
- dmy format is applied to the article now. --Clithering (talk) 03:12, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

Full review of nomination needed. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:16, 29 July 2013 (UTC)
New enough, long enough, neutral, hook is short enough, interesting and confirmed. AGF on the offline and Chinese sources. Close paraphrasing / copyvio concerns seem unlikely given the range of sources and fact-based style. The article content is consistent with what shows up in online sources. There is some awkward wording like "originally born in New Zealand". I would copy edit it, but that would disqualify this review. Nothing serious. Good to go.
