Article is a new spin-off, that is clearly notable. Hook is cited to the Smithsoian. I admit I was more interested in the Daisy advertisement than the campaign article, but that means the hook is certainly attention grabbing. There are a few formatting errors on the talk page, and the spin-off needs to note any copied content properly for attribution purposes. Earwig's bot reports close paraphrasing of the "Because tonight the contest is the same..." speech, which is a direct quotation, but may be worth trimming. I can't remember if US Federal Government campaign speeches are public domain or not, can you advise? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 20:35, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
- @Ritchie333: Hi, thanks for your comments. I have resolved all the formatting errors on the talk page and have properly attributed some copied content on talk page. I guess the direct quotation can be ignored in copyvio, but I have still trimmed the quote. I have taken the campaign speeches from certain sources which are cited in the article. Also, the video file is in public domain, and even a Featured picture, so I don't feel that is an issue. I guess most of the issues are resolved. Kindly let me know of any other problem. Thanks!

- Kavyansh.Singh, I'm still concerned that the copyvios tool reports "51.6% : Violation possible". Can you look into that in a bit more depth? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 09:51, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
- Ritchie333, I have further reduced the content of the speech, which is under direct quotation. The copyvio detector now shows "Violation Unlikely" Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 09:59, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
Okay, I think all my concerns are now addressed, so I can pass this now. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 10:05, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
