• Comment only Shorter ALT2 added. Edwardx (talk) 21:45, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

• QPQ has been done. Article is large enough and new. The article has been moved to Nursing Studies, University of Edinburgh, but does anything above need to be altered? No copyvio detected by the tool. The article is mostly referenced and neutral. However two sentences on the end of the "Chair of Nursing Studies" section need citations. For the first hook it appears in the article, cited, and confirmed by newspaper, and is short enough. The alt1 hook is not clearly in the article, in that the article does not mention graduating with a full university degree. For ALT2 there is plenty of mystery about the term "such", I expect that there were other nurse education departments before, but not in a UK university, so I won't approve alt2. So if referencing is fixed this can move along. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:38, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

• Thank you, Graeme Bartlett. I have tweaked ALT2 accordingly. Edwardx (talk) 11:30, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

• confirmed, the whole article is referenced. The current ALT2 is now in the article, and confirmed by a reference, it is also short enough. Good to go with alt0 or alt2. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 23:24, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
