  • The article is new: Green tickY
  • The article is long enough: Green tickY
  • The hook is interesting: Red XN
  • The hook is referenced: Green tickY
  • The hook is below 200 characters: Green tickY
  • A google search does not reveal any copyright violation: Green tickY
  • The article follows most other important policies: Green tickY
  • QPQ: Green tickY

The hook makes it seem as if the unauthorized use of this certification was specifically a federal crime; actually it is just the generic protection for all trademarked logos. Besides, "federal crime" must clarify the country where that law applies (meaning, "Federal crime in the United States") Cambalachero (talk) 18:17, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

  • Thanks for the review. I agree that the hook is not great, and am happy to change it. It’s hard, though, to find a really catchy hook on this subject. How about:
  • ALT1: ... that the five largest kosher certification agencies in the United States certify 80 percent of the kosher food sold in that country? Yoninah (talk) 18:42, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
  • I like the article with ALT1. It's certainly long enough and interesting, and the ALT1 hook is referenced. Raymie (tc) 18:38, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
  • ALT1 seems fine Cambalachero (talk) 14:57, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
