Law for the Protection of Macedonian National Honour
- ... that the Law for the Protection of Macedonian National Honour, created during WWII to quash opposition to Macedonian nationalism, remained in force until 1991?
Created by Jingiby (talk). Nominated by Chipmunkdavis (talk) at 11:16, 18 December 2020 (UTC).
The article was created on the 14th, so new enough. It sits at just shy of 2500 characters, so it's long enough. It reads neutrally enough, with the discussion of the subject matter and the sources making it difficult to not have some amount of focus on the effect on Bulgarians and their supporters. I'll assume good faith on the offline references. The DYK quote is cited inline and I found no issues with the copyvio detector. The hook is short enough and interesting in that this law lasted quite such a long time until the fall of the Soviet Union. An issue though, @Chipmunkdavis:, isn't the QPQ requirement based on the nominator to DYK and not on the article creator? And you have more than 5 credits already.

Works for me. Good to go, with AGF on the offline and non-English sources. SilverserenC 04:18, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
- You have a cite for every sentence in the lead except for the passage in late 1944. Meanwhile, footnote 27 says it went into law in June 1945–perhaps this detail could be added to the article? Yoninah (talk) 21:17, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: I'm not the article writer, but i'm not seeing what you're referring to. There is a reference in the lede for both the fact that the law came into operation in 1945 and that it was originally passed at the very end of 1944. Both statements have in-line citations.

- @Silver seren: you're right, it's cited in the third sentence. So what's the first sentence for? It should probably say:
The law for the Protection of Macedonian Macedonian National Honour was a statute that ...
(explain its purpose). Then it would be a proper lead. Yoninah (talk) 21:58, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
