... that in 1945, Arnold Peter Meiklejohn supervised the medical students at Bergen-Belsen concentration camp?
- ALT1:... that ...?

Reviewed: Thomas Frederick Chavasse

Created by Whispyhistory (talk) and Philafrenzy (talk). Nominated by Whispyhistory (talk) at 20:55, 28 August 2019 (UTC).[reply]

New enough, created 2 days before nomination. Prose size of 5702 well exceeds 1500 requirement. Biographical article (not living) is written in neutral manner, uses inline citations throughout. The matches found by Earwig's took are limited solely to book titles. I found no other copying or close paraphrasing. The hook is within format, and I think the juxtaposition of concentration camp vs. medical student will be compelling to a general audience. The hook is found directly in the article, and is cited to a reliable source. QPQ complete, no image to check against. 78.26 _{(spin me / revolutions)} 21:12, 30 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

the starvation diet[edit]

This is referred to twice in the article, as if it was a known thing. I'll create an empty link to it; hopefully somebody who knows what it is will write an article. T bonham (talk) 21:45, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

T bonham, the everyday meaning of starvation diet is here, and indeed the redirect goes to the Fasting page, but clearly it does not make sense in this context. I sense that it must mean a special diet for those who have been subject to starvation. As you say, it needs to be clarified. Moonraker (talk) 06:43, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
