- New article, long enough (ca. 2100 characters). Within policy. Hook format and content (cited, neutral, interesting) ok. QPQ done. Image is free (PD), used in article and looks good. Ready to go after a small copy-edit for language issues (missing words, grammar) both in the hook and in the article. Also some sentences seem very long to me and could be split in two. I am not a native English speaker, but at least the following seem wrong to me: "saved an American sailors", "He was presented with gold watch", " he was educated in the Christian faith by American missionaries Reverend John S. Emerson", "He would head the mission in along", "was rewarded a gold Cartier pocket watch President Abraham Lincoln". bamse (talk) 14:06, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
