George Oprescu[edit]

  • ... that while working as a French teacher, future Romanian art critic George Oprescu denounced the German occupation, prompting his arrest and deportation to an internment camp in Bulgaria?

Created by Biruitorul (talk). Self nominated at 17:09, 22 August 2014 (UTC).

Let me try properly reviewing this:

  • There is already to be a QPQ for this
  • Done within a 5-day range
  • Has more than 1,500 characters of readable prose
  • Is a new article
  • There appears to be sufficient sourcing for every paragraph
  • Hook is stated and apparently appropriately sourced
  • Apparently no copyvio
  • Apparently no other problems

Thus, it appears that this DYK? nomination is already good to go right now! Very nice job! Hopefully I have reviewed this DYK? nomination correctly. Also, for the record, I myself prefer the original hook for this DYK? nomination. Futurist110 (talk) 00:39, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

  • There are far too many redlinks in this article. Yoninah (talk) 14:11, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
  • Actually, no, there aren't. The only thing the DYK rules have to say about redlinks is: "It is fine for articles… to have red links" and "No redlinks in the hook" (not an issue here). Moreover, the linking is in keeping with the spirit of WP:RED: I sincerely believe (based on my own research) that each of the linked terms is likely to have an article at some point in the future, although I admit one or two may be borderline.
  • Anything else? - Biruitorul Talk 14:21, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
  • No. Actually, the article is very nice. I'm restoring Futurist's tick, although it should be an AGF icon for offline/foreign-language sources. Are you familiar with Harvard references, which would directly link the footnote to the bibliography? See Help:Shortened footnotes. Best, Yoninah (talk) 19:15, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
