Newark mayoral election, 2014

  • First, you shouldn't take it for granted that the readers of the hook (who will see it at the main page) will know who is Cory Booker. Provide some context in it. Second, "will be the first" may sound noteworthy if that means the first of a series; but it is the only election that will be ever referred as the election after his resignation. And third, the second paragraph in the lead may be borderline with NPOV, because it reads as if wikipedia was endorsing those opinions. Cambalachero (talk) 03:24, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
    • Thank you for your comments. I see you have used them as your QPQ for Template:Did you know nominations/Guapas, but you have not assessed the above article on the criteria for a review. Please do that and if you would like to suggest an ALT please do that, too. Djflem (talk) 15:24, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
      • Neutrality and an appropiate hook are part of the criteria. I will complete the review when those points are fixed Cambalachero (talk) 20:39, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
The hook fact is accurate and cited with an inline citation in the article and is neutral and does not focus unduly on negative aspects of living people.Djflem (talk) 22:16, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
Please see Talk:Newark mayoral election, 2014 w/ regard to what "may be borderline".Djflem (talk) 06:59, 9 April 2014 (UTC)
I do not agree with the nomination as it currently stands. I request someone else to review it. Cambalachero (talk) 13:30, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

ALT 1: ... that both candidates in the 2014 Newark mayoral election have asked the United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey to monitor voting, accusing each other's supporters of misconduct?

Date, length and hook all OK. QPQ done. Would you like this held for the 13 May? The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 09:52, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
Would be nice if it would appear before the election.Djflem (talk) 08:22, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
