@Swmmng: New and long enough, Earwig detects no copyvios. I'd like to see more specifics and better sourcing about Cihlář's involvement in developing remdesivir; these are generally large team efforts and simply saying he developed it himself isn't sufficient detail. Was he a laboratory scientist, a research group head, or was it in his executive position at Gilead? John P. Sadowski (NIOSH) (talk) 23:39, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
The nominator hasn't edited since the 9th and has not responded to the comments left in the nomination or addressed the above issues; their last edit to the article (and their most recent edit on Wikipedia) did not give the necessary specifics requested above. Marking for closure as unsuccessful. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:49, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
